Physiopharmaceutical augmentation



Physiopharmaceutical augmentation is a type of augmentation only used by the Illuminati and the Majestic-12. This type of augmentation consists of psychological conditioning and an improved body through the pharmaceutical augmentation for enhanced capabilities and absolute loyalty.

The only major flaw of this type of augmentation is the depigmentation of the skin of the subject that turns it into albino.

History
The physiopharmaceutical augmentation was probably created between the mechanical augmentation and nano-augmentation, between 2025 and 2035. It was created for a quick method of augmentation in mass, without the non-standard appearance of mechanical augmentation or the unpredictability of nano-augmentation.

The first successful type of physiopharmaceutically augmented agents were the MiBs, also known as the Men in Black, probably created by the Illuminati and the Majestic-12 before their separation (the proof being the symbol of the Illuminati tattooed to the back of the necks) in 2035 for executing special missions for the Majestic-12 secretly, because once mortally wounded or dead, the MiB triggers a mechanism called "self-termination mechanism" that causes a powerful explosion, which injures and destroys everything around him.

It's known that after their separation, the Majestic-12 continued to make minor improvements in the physiopharmaceutical augmentation of the MiB up to the series P, which gives 16 improvements since the series A. However, the series P seem to have been the last, as the Majestic-12 was destroyed in the same year of the creation of the series P in 2052 and, despite their separation with the Illuminati, the Majestic-12 always kept the symbol of the Illuminati tattooed to the back of the MiB's necks. The only major flaw, mentioned earlier, of the MiB is the depigmentation of the skin of the subject that turns it into albino since the series L, but a partial solution was found - MJ12 gave their MiBs sunglasses and dark clothing to soften the albino effect.

Several years later, after regaining their power through the destruction of the Majestic-12 and years of recovery, the Illuminati have again used the physiopharmaceutical augmentation to create a new type of agents. The result was the IET, also known as the Illuminati Elite Trooper, created to ensure the secret missions of the Illuminati were confidential, because once dead, taking the principle of the termination mechanism of the MiB, their bodies dissolved in a massive cloud of toxic gas that quickly kills anyone within a radius of 5 meters. Unlike the MiB, the IET can't be knocked down and the termination mechanism is triggered also after the IET fall unconscious.

It's unknown whether there have been improvements over time on the IET process, but like the MiB, the albino trait appears again, giving a slightly blue pale skin, and the symbol of the Illuminati tattooed to the back of the necks was kept.
