Description[edit]

Poseidon has been subject to a recent fad for Human Bio-Engineering. These changes include:

  • Webbing that enables more efficient propulsion
  • Membranes over the eyes that allow better sight underwater
  • Changes to skin structure to better regulate heat-loss in water and have included
    • Thick Fur
    • Redistributed Subcutaneous Fat
  • Changes to blood structure to allow greater operating periods underwater while holding ones breath

History[edit]

The landmark ruling of 277 (Sirius Vs Margar Bio-Engineering) that recognised the results of Animal Bio-Engineering on Dolphins also revealed various technologies that were applicable to humans and have been taken up by subsequent generations. From about 290, the use of these technologies has become quite widely accepted.
