Chloroplast Skin
Chloroplast Skin
Compatibility
This treatment introduces chloroplasts into the recipient's skin cells that turn the skin green. Chloroplasts engage in photosynthesis, a chemical reaction in which sunlight, water and carbon dioxide help create glucose and proteins. This process creates enough "food" for the recipient to sustain himself for short periods, though a supplemental diet with essential vitamins and nutrients is also necessary.

Clean Metabolism
Clean Metabolism
Compatibility
With a series of alterations to the recipient's exocrine glands, liver and pancreas-and the addition of tailored bacteria to the intestines-this bioware more efficiently digests food and drink. The main effect, however, is that most of the more embarrassing and unpleasant effects of the digestive system are eliminated. Users rarely develop body odor, belch or pass gas. Even the person's sweat and bodily waste are sanitized. This treatment is popular among high-society players and trendy types who wish to avoid a social faux pas.

Dietware
Dietware
Compatibility
This is for those image-conscious people who don't want to worry about gaining weight or losing their figure. It consists of a series of gastrointestinal tract modifications that limit the amount of food that is digested, in proportion to the user's metabolic rate. It ensures that no excess carbohydrates and proteins are created and converted into fat. In essence, the recipient won't pick up any extra pounds — no matter how much he eats.

Hair Growth
Hair Growth
Hair and fur can be grown in excess or in unusual spots by treating the dermis skin layer to nurture hair follicles. The texture, color and thickness of the hair can be chosen in advance, allowing for a wide range of options — from a long green mane to a nice coat of leg fur so the user can wear shorts in the winter. Whiskers are a current favorite among the club scene. Each treatment covers a region of skin approximately the size of the human head.

Scent Glands
Scent Glands
Simple changes to the exocrine sweat glands can be made, changing the scent that is exuded to almost anything imaginable. The recipient must choose the scent in advance, from a wide range offered on the market, including designer perfumes. This bioware can also change the way sweat tastes, making intimate occasions more interesting.

Sensitive Skin
Compatibility
The number of nerve receptors in the skin's dermis layer can be increased with this process, slightly heightening the recipient's sensitivity to heat, cold, pressure and pain. The actual sensitivity change is minimal. It's not enough to cause increased damage, but it provides just the right tactile difference to satisfy pleasure-seeking hedonists.

Skin Pigmentation
Skin Pigmentation
Compatibility
By altering the amount of melanin in the skin, and by introducing other natural pigments, metahuman skin can be altered to take on a wide range of colors — from pitch-black to bright red to bone white. The entire body can be colored, or just selected areas. The art of bio-tattooing is gaining popularity, especially with folks who want specific designs colored into their skin. Pigmentation applied in this way doesn't fade over time, though bio-tattoos can be designed so that they change slightly over long periods.

This bioware is incompatible with Chloroplast Skin and Dermal Sheathing. The iris of the eye can also be altered in this manner, though this option is not compatible with cybereyes.
