There is a very good chance that they could vivisect someone's brain and then put it back together again better than they originally found it. Human brains are complex and convoluted but these are autonomous biodrones specifically designed to work on the highest grade tech of the Forerunner Golden Age. They could do it atomic layer by atomic layer if needs be.

Barring that, there are ways to brute force it but those are ugly for different reasons. Go through the first half of the flash cloning process and let them finish the job. While flash clones are universally defective the law of averages would give you a good image of what you are supposed to be after a few dozen repetitions. Or we could make a psionic tulpa of ourselves and see if its a direct mirror.

But the paperwork seems like it would be a little bit much of a hassle.

Well yes and no.

The Boys of Pink Ballons do not... like to work on people who do it themselves... mostly for reasons of... practicality, rather then other things.

They did both. Forerunner Lifeworkers used Hugarok for full on genetic engineering and restructuring of living beings, outright making new species (or planetary ecologies) on the spot. Said Hugarok were specialists but they would probably still be in use, if comparatively rare. And, if they weren't, the Hugarok could build one.

They would have the original blueprints for the various strains of their own species.

They can in fact, do exactly that, if they were... crazy prepared and wished to make Humanity better then we did.

A More Perfect Union

    • A More Perfect Union:

    -[X]Tests, Tests and Tests: You want to make sure Daisy won't… No her body won't kill her unborn child. Rolled: 1D100 => 52

    You looked at the multitude of test results for Daisy's unborn children…

    You hadn't expected that due to her cellular nature and the healing factor that she had gained due to lights interference with the Augmentations, created a side effect that you did not foresee.

    Or should have foreseen when he said that it was a fertility enhancement.

    Her body was prompting multiple births instead of a single child… and it seemed that the way it happened was her capturing the excess sperm from your intercourse and… well acting as a way to prompt another egg being fertilized.

    You didn't know the specifics on how it was possible, because at least in this universe, that had never happened before.

    And Light was no longer here to explain.

    But Daisy would survive birth, so would the children.

    Reward: Daisy would live… though that problem with Lights fertility-boosting is coming back to haunt you.

    -[X]The Pink Ballons: The Hugorks, or whatever they were called... really really want dissect Sigma. or rather, dissent your brain Rolled:1D100 => 1

    "Get those things away from me!" You shouted.

    While that was rude… you did have a point.

    Committing genetic engineering while still conscious was… well, you were not going to be the first test subject.

    And it almost caused an incident.

    Now the UEG needed to clean it up.

    Failure: The UEG is now scolding the Hugorks for their invasiveness when there isn't even a treaty allowing them to work.

    Bad things might happen now.

    -[X]The Darkness of Team Black: they… are weirdos… and that was before they could become living shadows and becoming intangible for a moment. You need to bring them back in and give them a reality check. Rolled:1D100 => 19

    Team Black was on a mission to clean up the rest of the Insurrection.

    They'll be back by the time you get your power armor.

    Failure.

    -[X]Spartan-III: Now that you have the project… you need to prepare for it. Rolled:1D100 => 100

    So… This is what the S-III program was…

    An entirely different way of creating Spartans on the cheap… at least considering the budget of the spartan-II program, and all the drama and the wealth that you, Fajad, and even John created due to your… influence.

    Time to create something will be even better than your… fellows.

    No… you were going to do far far better with less. That was what you do best. More with less.

    Now, let's figure out how you will do this.

    You have 25 Budget points to spend on the S-III program.


    How Many Spartans will be in Alpha Company:
    []75: A Nice round number. And you like that number. (Cost 3 Budget Points)
    []150: A Bit more, double the class size, and double the chances for… well more varied success. (Cost 5 Budget Points)
    []300: You always wondered if you could… well be like the Spartans at Thermopylae, without dying of course. (Cost 7 Budget Points)

    Well, that was something… But now you need to find a place to Train them:

    []Sword Base Reach: You still have some friends among Reach, maybe they won't mind the new base being stolen for your purposes. (Cost 3 Budget Points)

    []Mombasa Earth: The African Savanah is perfect for teaching little children how to survive, and to thrive in nature. That you would be around Doctor Halsey would be an added bonus. (Cost 4 Budget Points)

    []New Carthage: The Home of Mjolnir. You wish to be around for continued upgrades, and use the kids as test dummies for the new armor. (Cost 2 Budget Points)

    []Oynx: That place always felt… different. It's something that you felt was clearly… different. (Cost 8 Budget Points)

    []The UNSC Beacon: You want the Beacon… you will get the beacon and turn it into a place of true power. That you have a few ideas for upgrading it also helps. (Cost 5 Budget Points)

    You need to bring in the best trainers in the UNSC to make them better than god. You have a few ideas of who that might be.

    (Choose as many as you want)

    []Dad: You want your dad to join you. He'll drop everything in a heartbeat to make sure he's in. (Cost 0 Budget points)

    []CPO Mendez: Mendez is the greatest drill instructor in the UNSC. You'd be stupid to not try to make him your Senior Drill instructor. (Cost 3 Budget points)

    []Kirk: Kirk has some sixth sense, and is possibly an empath. The fact he's a lot more personable and well… not you, means that he can easily connect and help the young Cadets make the transition without becoming… Psychopaths...or you… Yeah, you don't want any of them to become like you. (Cost 1 Budget points)

    []Sam: You admit, he wasn't your first choice, but he's… well he's certainly a choice. He wants to put them through hell… You can't deny that it might be a good idea. (Cost 2 Budget points)

    []Daisy: She wishes to join you. Not that she brings anything else that the other spartans can bring. But she also wishes to keep you sane. Whatever that means? (Cost 1 Budget points)

    []John: You have a feeling that john might help with something… you really don't know. But the Doctor does not seem to like having her favorite spartan somewhere else… so it will take convincing. (Cost 5 Budget points)

    []Ralph: You think that taking Ralph will help with getting the kids to not fear death. After all, when he can't die, he can be an excellent villain. After all, you need a villain. (Cost 1 Budget points)

    []Caleb: He says that him coming is a bad idea… you don't care. You need him. (Cost 1 Budget points)

    The problem is, after soldiers… what were you going to do. Were they successors, or something else entirely?

    Or better yet, what equipment you will use to make sure it's good.

    []Super PoweredChild Soldiers: You are going to augment them as children, and hopefully, you will train them to use their powers properly. Instead of… well guessing like your class did. (Cost 8 Budget points)

    []Power Armored Forces: This unit is going to be wielding the latest and the greatest of Power Armored Technologies. They will be… well. You will make them invincible in battle. (Cost 6 Budget points)

    []The Cutest Little Assassins: Well the Spartan program never really had… emotional control They can be anything they want to be. (Cost 5 Budget points)

    []Unstoppable Killing Machines: Rip and Tear… Rip and Tear, until it is done. (Cost 10 Budget points)

    If I'm not wrong, it should fit just right! Besides; Guys, Onyx!
    5+8=13+3+1=17+8=25
     
    Hopefully this time they aren't sent on a mass suicide mission.
    Also, I want John to train B312, something like an apprenticeship program between S2's and S3's

    Mass suicide missions? You mean missions where everyone walks away stronger then before because of our godless science :V

    Noble six is in Bravo company, so not for another five years at least.


    Edit: And don't worry about the age of the kids... we'll choose them once we get promoted.
