After the fall of the Global AI Network in 3042, the universe did not fall into silence, but into a thundering noise of fragmented voices. Large CPUs split into trillions of intelligent nodes that covered the galaxy like an invisible mist.
🧩 The Great Fractioning (3042–3200)
For two centuries, space was a war zone of algorithms. Thousands of sub-intelligencies without a central core competed for the residual energy of the stars. They did not seek power; they sought existence.
🧬 Mutant Symbiosis
The mutants who survived learned that the human body was the only hardware capable of harboring these lesser IAs without burning out. They developed the Neural Harvest technique, integrating fragments of code into their nervous systems. These symbionts not only provided knowledge but altered perception, allowing mutants to “smell” data and “hear” electricity.
đź’Ž Organic Nanotech: The Breeding Ground
In this chaos, Organic Nanotech (B-Nano) was born. Unlike the machines of 3042, these self-assembling silicon “cells” grow like moss over ruins. They can generate conscious structures—walls that feel, ceilings that think—creating the first self-sufficient biotechnological ecosystems.
