Marrow: Difference between revisions

While most transgenics where built to be the ultimate soldiers; Marrow (Manticore designation unknown) was created to be a human blood bank, or has he puts it "the red cross" for transgenic combat teams. Marrow, and others like him are the backbone of the combat medic units that follow transgenic soldiers into battle. In addition to their normal training, they have extensive training in anatomy/physiology, combat medicine and emergency battlefield surgery, making them a one-man medical corp. Manticore designed all transgenics to be universal donors but in Marrow's case they decided to go further and create a being with perfect blood. His blood contains higher levels of hemoglobin, which carry oxygen to body tissues, high levels of platelets and fibrin to speed clotting of wounds and elevated levels of pain-killing endorphins and adrenalin. His body also has a higher production rate than the average human or transgenic and a higher-than-average blood pressure required for quick transfusions.
