The Unatro Val, or Unatro for short is a Human Genetic Modification that enables the user to gain magical abilities through energy manipulation. A concept once before only seen in Unani fantasy and fiction stories. Much like the H.P.C; It is mandated by the Unanian Government that every citizen is augmented with one at birth.

Medical Procedure

The Implant

The Unatro genetic alteration is implanted into the individual through a patch and injection system. At birth, the doctor will place two patches on the back of each hand followed by two injections into the feet. These first immunizations will then transfer specific genetic instructions through the blood stream to alter the Empty Genome which had been found within both Unani-Human and Unani-Fe'Juk DNA.

Development

When the vaccinations and patches have been first given, the only thing that you would notice is the undeveloped Unatro mark on the back of the hand. Throughout the first two years of life, the body will continue to follow the DNA alterations which were made to develop a new organ which is held within the rib-cage under the lungs and heart. To connect the new organ to the body. When the body has completed the organ, a new bodily wiring system similar to the nervous system will begin to grow.

By the time that the individual reaches their fifth year of age; the new Unatro system, which connects the individual limbs to the Unatro Organ, will have finished its biological development. This allows the energy to flow freely throughout the body. When the Unatro System has been completed, the symbols on the back of each hand will fully unlock showing the entirety of the symbol. This visual cue is used to determine when a child is fully able to use their Unatro abilities.

Side Effects

The only known side effect is that the patch leaves a mark on the back of the individuals hand that looks like a semi circle with a stick on the bottom. the marks may vary in color, and transparency based on many factors, but it is typically a semi-transparent black. At first the cause of this symbol was largely unknown to Unani Scientists, it was later revealed to be the Ancients Symbol for Geis Walker.

Unatro Mana

Unlike Normal types of Mana, Unatro Energy is one of the few forms that is able to be regenerated with rest. But due to being aligned with light, is considered the weakest form of mana. This isn't to say that a Unatro Energy can't beat another type of Mana user, but instead that it takes a higher skilled user to be able to.

Common Unatro Abilities

Unatro Energy has a few common Spells that mostly everyone can cast, these spells are considered low rank and everyone is trained in how to do these within the Unani Education System

  • Energy Ball
  • Levitation
  • Push/Pull
  • Healing
  • Unatro Shielding

Specialized Unatro Abilities

In addition to the common abilities, if a Unani citizen wishes to advance their abilities, they may take the optional advanced courses either as part of their college or university programs or as part of an elective at the secondary school level. When one goes in to learn about their specialized abilities, the end goal is to have the students trained in how to use their Unatros specific specialization.

Because the most common specialization is related to the Manipulation of Electromagnetic Electricity, it is the most widely known field of Unatro Energy, although because of differences in genetic traits between newborns, new forms of abilities appear every couple of years. Because of this, it is a large field of study within the Unani. The majority of the research in Unatro Specializations happens on Academian Island on the Unanian homeworld of Tyril. This is due to the fact that only those with a powerful or a unique Unatro ability being able to live on the island or enroll in the schools there

Electromasters

One of the favorite abilities among Electromasters who have taken the advanced courses is the ability to create what are considered "private networks" between groups of friends utilizing their brainwaves. This is also known as a Brainwave Network. Although the Brainwave Networks are at best just below par with the HPC's networking abilities, users of the Brainwave Network tend to find a sense of pride in hosting a secret "cloud" held off of the Galactic Networks vast and invasive servers. Skills of Advanced Unatro Energy users tend to be the following.

  • Brainwave Network
  • Lightning Chain - One of the most powerful abilities of an Electromaster. It takes time to charge up, but when launched it fires off a Lightning Bolt which extends from users body towards their target(s).
  • EMP Pulse - Creates a small temporary EMP pulse which emanates from the users body.
  • Electromagnetic Manipulation - Allows the user to manipulate the electromagnetic properties of an object or person within range. An example of this would be modifying the static electricity of an object to allow it to stick to a wall.

Military Unatro Abilities

The military has taken full advantage of Unatro Energy, coming up with and training soldiers in how to use many deadly forms of their powers. Spells include:

  • Railgun - The ability to launch a metallic item at an extremely high velocity towards a target
  • Lightning Chain - Allows the user to form a temporary manipulate the electromagnetic particles in the air to form and manipulate lightning
  • Nervous Hijack - Allows the user to hijack and overload a targets nervous system through direct contact to cause temporary or permanent-until-surgery paralysis that can be localized or affect their entire body.
