Bioengineering Stories

"When I was born I was so small I was mistaken for a french fry. I was never an ordinary child. My best friend was a seagull. I was also illegal. Artificially intelligent people like me had been banned ever since that thing with the Twelve Elevens. Mother raised me for profit. Buyers and sellers had other plans for me, but then I grew a mind of my own. This is the story of how my brain ended up inside this box." Candles is a black-market, "artificially intelligent person" (or A.I.P., or "ape" in the colloquial sense, as in 'the planet of the'), an organic being, farm-raised on genetically engineered smoothies and destined for auction to the highest bidding criminal enterprise. Gifted with the ability to communicate with foul-mouthed seagulls and ill-tempered felines, this gender-less, age-less, race-less creature has to find its way to escape from the clutches of its mother and other assorted enemies, in this fairly exciting and ultimately utterly unexpected story.

We knew it had existed once, but no one knew it was still alive. Our paths had never crossed-not until March 27, 2032, the day of that accident in the Hammerfest glaciers. Poor sailor... The nanomorph awakened in his body for the first time. Then it moved to another, and another after that... Each one it touched turned Grey-drained, pale, weary of life. Scientists called them The Changed, but the people made their own word: The Weirds. In time, that became the only name they were known by. Soon, their numbers reached the thousands, and the world sank beneath the melancholic shadow of these new beings. They wanted to be healed-but we failed them. And then, one day... another color was born: the Reds. But they were different. The nanomorph had given them power. They carried an undying spark within, their sharp minds and boundless energy opening the door to an unknown future. "We are the next step of humanity," they said, taking the Greys under their wings. And the whispers began: "The Reds... are coming to take over the world."

"The more I look at the stars, the more lost I feel. The planets withering away like tuna with an open seal. The more I think, the more I feel, my mind chipping away like a sword to a shield." -Miss Mydriana.

Dr. Giana Tavera who is a geneticist together with her husband Dr. Charlie Tavera, a biomedical engineer, both work in a federal agency called NIHRD which sole purpose is to research about genetic and physical maps that allowed precise localization of genes. But NIHRD has a little secret they can't let the public know, they clone humans too. They have a son named Andy who appeared to be a normal boy to anyone who had seen him. Although, he likes things that are not common for his age. He's smarter than the boys his age in their neighborhood. For a young boy of seven, he's already interested in how nature works. He loves reading Newton's works and to ask about the universe. But there's one thing about Andy that no one is allowed to know. Sometimes, there are some stories you can't tell.

Six years have passed since the Eternal Crown Marker shard shattered on Aegis VII. From that cataclysm emerged a power both god-like and unstoppable, its influence leeching into the farthest reaches of deep space. A new era of horror has dawned-one where the line between man and monster dissolves, and survival demands more than defiance. It demands transformation. Three destinies now intertwine amid a collapsing galaxy: The Avenger, driven by vengeance sharper than any blade. The Shaper, whose iron will can bend flesh and fate alike. The Wrath Incarnate, born of rage so pure it reshapes worlds. Each bears the ghost of Isaac Clarke's legacy, yet none remain linked to his destiny. This is not a remake. This is Dead Space-Awakened reimagined. Dive deeper into the Marker mythos, encounter brand-new terrors, and face the ultimate question: What happens when the nightmare doesn't just change the world... but changes who we are?

Kirch was never just a child. He was born in a laboratory, raised by two scientists who shaped him as a project: his mother, cold and methodical; his father, obsessed with perfecting him. Throughout his childhood, parts of his body were replaced, each modification presented as a gift... and each improvement as a step toward a goal that wasn't his own. Confined, with only robots for company, Kirch dreamed of a world he had never known. Until a secret connection to the network revealed the truth: he had no childhood-only a design. Now, he must decide how to live when his life was never truly his own.

BioPunk focuses on biotechnology -- technology that alters the genetics of an organism. Broadly, this can even refer to selective breeding, but for the purposes of BioPunk fiction, it tends to refer to things like bioengineering, or biomods, which are programmed to enhance or alter the abilities of an individual.
