Bears have fleas. They just don't care.
And bear fleas are totally uber ursine fleas that can TOTALLY pwn any of your run-of-the-mill neko fleas. |

*cries*
But wait...if we inject the fleas with nanites, we could have super-soldier fleas!!
Oooh, I think we have a new sim-wide roleplay event idea, everyone!

actually insect human hybrids would be pretty damn awesome super soilders too.
Insect strength to mass ratio is pretty impressive as are endo skeletons, unfortunately no such thing of human mass would be possible as its the fact insects are so small that allows them to be built that way, hense no giant man sized insects in real life.
Bear fleas pwn neko fleas its true. Horse mosquitos though are worse.
October is a cat person obviously, you can always tell them, their houses smell funny. but back on topic, If you could create a midian species form in real life would you
oh see its not a topic hijack, bear super soilders would be better in real life than cat hybrids. Hense why I would create a bear hybrid   and not a neko, less it was as a pet to stroke and have my wicked way with.
See don't get me wrong, I love the pussies. they are very cute. just wouldn't make them as ultimate weapons in real life as I know enemy scientists would say ...fuck that, bear pwns tiger.
so what would you be if you could be a midain species
neko
vamp
lycan
biomech
human mutant
It would depend on the how the world was run for me , probablly a human looking mutant.
anyhow off to watch another wildlife documentary ttfn. |

Chimerism (similar to what y'all are thinking of human hybrids) is a very real (although extremely rare) phenomenom. And actually, I believe I read not too long ago that 'they' (naturally I can't find where I saw it, grrr) have begun to successfully (interpret that word how you like, heh) induce chimerism as they see fit. In fact, a human/mouse chimerism was created, that is, the embryo was, but they didn't let it live for long.
Okay, just tried to re-find what I'd been reading, and only could find this, for those of all y'all interested:

If diversity is the spice of life, this could best be described as a paprika-H Bomb. Plus, I have no problem admitting that I wants my neko ears!! Thoughts? Should I be visiting the nice men in white coats for even considering such a thing? |
To kinda re-hijack the thread back to your original post Satomi, I don't think that so many people would spend so much time fine-tuning their AV's, plotting their next IC move, making alts and alts of alts, wading through miles of lag cement, and sifting for hours through spammy forum threads if most of us didn't feel the same way too. If you're crazy, at least you will have some company in the padded cell. And who wouldn't want to have those ears?

Charles, Charles, Charles... *tsking sound*
You forgot the problem with bear soldiers and why nekos are superior... unlike your admittedly badass bear soldiers, we nekos don't have to hibernate! We'll just kill all the bears while they sleep. Besides, an invading army of nekos, especially cute, sexy nekos would have one undeniable perk - the resistance movement would be much more fun and profitable. Sure, you could ransom a bear soldier, but the resale market for pet nekos is much more (dare I say it?) bullish.
Letli, that picture's great, I hope you don't mind if I steal a copy. Charles is in there too, although you can't see him (he was invisible).
In conclusion, I can't think of any point in history when things wouldn't have been improved by the addition of nekos - cute ones, full-blown Moreaus, all types. Nekos for the win! (By the way, please excuse any typos, this was tapped out on an iPod Touch) |

One animal that some famously consider a hibernator is the bear, although bears do not go into "true hibernation". [2] During a bear's winter sleep state, the degree of metabolic depression is much less than what is observed in smaller mammals. Many prefer to use the term "denning". The bear's body temperature remains relatively stable (depressed from 37 °C to approximately 31 °C) and it can be easily aroused.
One animal you don't want aroused is a grizzly there are bad enough with out you giving them the raging horn!
Still true enough, the resell on neko's is greater than on bears, but not on neko's that have aroused bears.  |

As it is, I wouldnt like most of Midian to become real. If anything my dream of living lies somewhere in Norway around 9th century.
If anything comes to reality for me, it is cyberware, because it technicaly already exists and it is only matter of development. After all, they already constructed prothetic limb reacting to signals from nerves, so if that doesnt count as cyberware, I dont know what does.
As far as neko case is going, I would think they wouldnt be created as ultimate soldiers, more like ultimate spies. Long falls, high jumps, silent movement, good perception, weak body build. Though I have no idea why would anyone bother with mixing cat and neko, while quite a lot of these qualities are already stored in a gibbon.
But truth be told, nekoes used as Satomi stated for ultimate weapon would probably work based on spreading venereal diseases in enemy ranks.
If I wanted perfect warrior, I would go for human on steroides plus cyberware. Or in age of cybernetics, full robot. Terminator for the win.

Nah, he was farther up the hill out of "sight" behind the wall, watching to see if we decided to touch one of those damn eggs I'm sure.

I have thought of some really scifiisch things for Rin and how her body is build up and yet .. in the last few weeks I have heard that scientist have succesfully conducted experiments that are exactly the basis of the technology behind my ideas.
So who know .. maybe nekos (and for Charles some bear soldiers ;) ) aren´t that far away then we assume .. besides that ... do we really know how far the chineese are willing to go to get a few gold medals more in the next olympic games?
You know ... competition is driving things forward sometimes. |

There is an animal you are all forgetting, and that is the wolverine, and hungry will own anything that gets too close and yes folks, that means bears too.
It goes without saying a ber could smash a 50lb (22kg) wolverine to bits but for some reason none of them bother to deal with wolverines they even turn and go the other way.
I am all for a family of mustelidae; Wolverines, fishers, ferrets, ermine, weasels, badgers, otters, etc. The 6 week old weasel can kill and eat prey, which makes it the smallest carnivore also. Don't mess with a hungry or pissed off mustelid.
Wolverines pwn everything

Well, I'm not a super-soldier by any stretch of the imagination, and my background (both IC and in RL) reflects that. But, if I could be a cute Toberkitty in RL without people freaking out, that would be pretty awesome. I'd have to figure out how to safely secure my tail though when I ride my motorcycle. 
Oddly enough, I'd grow 4 inches in the transformation. Yep, I'm littler than Tober in RL. Not that that means a lot in terms of SL-heights, which are generally Goliath-esque.

| I would SO add tail and ears to myself, together with some feline abilities such as enhanced vision, smell, balance, the ability to jump well and the agile body... I could be without the fur though, and I really dont need claws although they are cool. |
