Unrestricts custom fluff bioaugs to all humans/skrell/diona. Does not touch Galatean bioaugs. **Unrestricting Human Origins:** - Bioaugs/genetic modifications among [Zeng-Hu employees](https://wiki.aurorastation.org/index.php/Zeng-Hu_Pharmaceuticals#Augmentation_and_Veterancy) is described as 'prolific'. Probably lots of wacky neural bioaugs and medical-related augs? The psionic receiver is an example of a non-fluff Zeng bioaug. - [Geneboosting](https://wiki.aurorastation.org/index.php/Empire_of_Dominia#Geneboosting) is a large feature of Dominian society. Primaries can have a custom aug. as some 'growth hormone gland' or w/ever to complement any flavour geneboosts they've received. - [Cytherean Venus](https://wiki.aurorastation.org/index.php/Venus#Cytherean_Culture) has a 'booming' genetic engineering field centred around the 'biomodification' of Stars/Idols. Beyond appearance: muscoskeletal augmentations for performance dexterity, maybe - not exclusive, these are just the ones that spring to mind Besides other specific genetic/bioaugging origins, virtually anyone can be employed by Zeng and access genetic/bioaugs. Or just be interested in bio/genetic transhuman instead of the cybernetic transhuman currently dominating character design options. Seems odd having fluff bioaugs be restricted to Galateans only, and they have their fancy-schmancy ones anyway that go beyond fluff (and represent them focusing on more advanced/practical bioaugs). **Unrestricting Skrell/Diona/Vaurca/Unathi Species:** - Biological augmentations are ['commonplace' in the Nralakk Federation](https://wiki.aurorastation.org/index.php/Skrell_Technology#Augmentations). Examples given on wiki: fertility treatments, ambidexterity augments, sensory enhancements. - Dionae are all about wacky bioengineering shenanigans. Custom bioaugs can be flavoured as weird quirks/organs they have. - Vaurca have a [K'laxane brood](https://wiki.aurorastation.org/index.php/Vedhra,_Princess_of_Configurations) that specialises in bioaugs. I imagine the C'thur probably benefit from Nralakk's bioaugging too. - Unathi have the Aut'akh commune. - Tajara remain exempt due to 1) technological deficits, 2) cultural aversion, 3) no major Zeng-Hu presence. PRA have their tesla augments.
