 SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
 
 
ARCOTECTONICS
 
 During the Age of Superpowers, the Earth was covered in megacities housing
 billions of inhabitants.
 
BIOTECHNOLOGY
 
 The modification and creation of biological organisms for industrial,
 scientific, and military applications. In PreZero times Biotechnology
 was frequently used for a wide range of applications. In the modern age,
 it is almost exclusively employed in pharmacology and agriculture.
 
DRACONIC SEQUENCE
 
 A genetic marker found in many NewType animals. The original Draconic
 Sequence is thought to have been a biological weapons program, combining
 the DNA from eleven different species plus a number of custom genes.
 After the fall of the superpowers this sequence found its way into the
 gene web. Today, a number of draconic species exist.
 
 Characteristics of Draconic modification include armored skin,
 carnivorism, giantism, and bioweaponry. Cross-species contamination with
 human beings has not been recorded, and attempts to intentionally bind
 the Draconic Sequence to the human genome have universally ended in
 failure.
