fourfold while it guards your body against disease, toxins, and death from blood tissue loss!
 Our patented CatsEye ™ technology gives you sight you have to see to believe! Increased rod and cone counts give you better imaging resolution than can be achieved in most naturally evolved systems, while specially designed light amplifiers allow you to see clearly in extreme low-light situations.
 Our UncommonSense ™ suite of sense enhancements allows you to touch, smell, hear and taste like you never have before, as our expanded nerve placement and optimized connections expand your perceptual ranges in all sense categories. You’ll feel the difference from the first day!
 How strong do you want to be? With HardArm ™ technologies that boost natural muscle strength and reaction time, you’ll be stronger and faster than you ever dreamed possible—so strong and fast, in fact, that by law Colonial Genetics can’t sell this technology on the consumer market. That’s a real “leg up” for you recruits!
 Never be unconnected again! You’ll never lose your BrainPal ™ computer because it resides in your own brain. Our proprietary Assistive Adaptive Interface works with you so you can access your BrainPal ™ your way. Your BrainPal ™ also serves to coordinate nonorganic technologies in your new body, such as SmartBlood ™ . CDF servicepeople swear by this amazing piece of technology—and so will you.
    BUILDING A BETTER YOU
    You’ll no doubt be amazed at how much your new body can do. But have you wondered how it was designed? You may be interested to know that your body is just the latest series in a line of advanced, improved bodies designed by Colonial Genetics. Through proprietary technology, we adapt both genetic information from other species and the latest in miniaturized robotic technologies to improve your new body. It’s hard work, but you’ll be glad we made the effort!
    From our first improvements nearly two centuries ago, we’ve progressively built on our work. To introduce changes and improvements, we rely first on advanced computer modeling techniques to simulate the effects of each proposed improvement on the entire body system. The improvements that make it through this process are then tested on biological models. Then and only then are improvements incorporated into the final body design, integrated with the “starter” DNA you provide. Rest assured that each body improvement is safe and tested, and designed to make a better you!
    COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR NEW BODY
    1. Does My New Body Have a Brand Name?
    Yes! Your new body is known as the Defender Series XII, “Hercules” model. Technically, it’s known as CG/CDF Model 12, Revision 1.2.11. This body model is for use only by the Colonial Defense Forces. Additionally, each body has its own model number for maintenance purposes. You can access your own number through your BrainPal ™ . Don’t worry, you can still use your given name for everyday purposes!
     
    2. Does My New Body Age?
    The Defender Series body is designed to provide the CDF with optimum performance its entire operating life. To do this, advanced regenerative techniques are employed at the genetic level to reduce natural entropic tendencies. With a basic maintenance regimen, your new body will remain in top condition as long as you operate it. You’ll also find that injuries and disabilities are corrected quickly—so you can be up and running again in no time flat!
     
    3. Can I Pass These Amazing Improvements to My Children?
    No. Your body and its biological and technological systems are patented by Colonial Genetics and may not be passed on without permission. Also, due to the extensive nature of Defender Series improvements, its DNA is no longer genetically compatible with unmodified humans, and lab tests indicate that Defender Series mating creates incompatibilities lethal to the embryo in every case. Additionally, the CDF has determined that the ability to transmit
