Augmented-Human
The origin of the Augmented Humans can be traced back to a Federation of the Twilight, as alchemical experiments performed by a group of brilliant alchemists and spellcasters who sought to forge the ultimate protectors for the Federation. Drawing upon forbidden knowledge, they discovered a method to transform ordinary humans into beings of unparalleled might and resilience. The process, known as "The Ascension" involves a series of alchemical rituals, surgeries, and magical enhancements that fundamentally alter the human subjects into powerful warriors.
As they progress through their training, Augmented Humans also choose to align with specific groups or factions within the Federation, each representing unique values and traditions, each with their own philosophies and battle doctrines. Most Augmented Humans outside the Twilight are known as "Deserters", people who have chosen to escape their duty and find their own way of life.
