Ame-no-Uzume Type Artificial Nepleslian

Named after the ancient goddess of dawn, mirth, and revelry, the Ame-no-Uzume Type Artificial Nepleslians embody the spirit of cheerfulness and positivity. These clones, known for their vibrant and energetic personalities, were introduced in YE 38, designed to infuse environments with optimism and enthusiasm. Their roles are particularly suited to morale-boosting positions such as entertainers, comedians, or psychological therapists, where their innate cheerfulness can have a significant impact.

History

Addressing the initial problems of social integration of the Artificial Nepleslians within the Reds' population, the Athena Foundation geneticists started looking more long term. The Nepleslian Reds were a people built and created for war at its core. But with no one to fight, their need to display martial prowess begun turning inwards with a surge in creating and joining militias. Combined with deary living conditions and tough working conditions, the psychological health of Red clones was not good.

With the military leadership not bothering the deal with the issue, many clones turned to petty violence, alcoholism, and Yamataian entertainment and artificial_nepleslian to cope. Singers and idols are especially popular with male (and even females who like to mimic them) blue collar workers. But the foundation started to become concerned that the lack of Red idols might lead to a complete adoption of Yamataian culture and a resulting lost of Red identity with how enamored the Reds were with Yamataians. Thus the Ame-no-Uzume Type was created from the standard Nepleslian clone stock that was increasingly becoming only used to refresh the genetics of the Artificial Nepleslian lines.

Physiology

The most unaugmented of the Reds' Artificial Nepleslians, they have more in common with Gen 1 clones than their fellow Artificial Nepleslians. Not that any of them pay any attention to that when watching an Ame-no-Uzume Type performs.

Genetic Engineering

One of the key adaptations is the enhancement of their interpersonal skills. Driven by hormonal modifications, Ame-no-Uzume Types have a manipulation of their neurotransmitter levels, such as serotonin and oxytocin. These play significant roles in their mood regulation and desire for social bonding. Their physical features (facial shape, body shape, hip width, etc) is also tailored to each specific line of clones in an attempt to capture the attention of a wide range of Nepleslian Reds. For example, Yamataian inspired Ame-no-Uzume lines are genetically engineered to be petite and have a youthful (but not too youthful where they can be mistaken as teenagers) look with a wider range of natural hair colors compared to more “Nepleslian” stocks.

They also are enhanced with a combination upregulating genes related to osteoblast activity (cells that build bone), myogenesis (muscle formation), and adjusting the expression of growth factors like IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor 1). This allows their musculoskeletal system to be 1.2 times denser than the baseline human. They also have an enhanced cardiovascular system with a stronger heart that operates at an efficient 54 beats per minute at rest thanks to modifying genes responsible for cardiac muscle function to contract more efficiently and greater strength. The sinoatrial node, the heart's natural pacemaker, has also been modified to ensure a steady heart rate while active. This translates as individuals being capable of lifting 1.1 times their body mass.

Augmentations

Ame-no-Uzume Types do not typically receive extensive physical or cybernetic augmentations. Their primary enhancements are genetically driven, focusing on personality and mental abilities.

Usage

Ame-no-Uzume Types, with their infectious positivity and interpersonal skills, are ideally suited for roles that require a high degree of social interaction and emotional upliftment.

  • Entertainment and Performance: Their natural cheerfulness and energy make them excellent entertainers and performers, capable of captivating audiences in various settings, from live performances to media productions.
