Cybernetically modified humans with limited intelligence and no free will. They possess just enough initiative to obey commands and carry out their designated tasks without constant micromanaging. Some are grown in cloning vats, some converted from captured humans; both are destined for the recycling plants when their usefulness runs out, their cybernetic parts to be reclaimed and their organic parts rendered into nutrients for new clones. | Cybernetically modified humans with limited intelligence and no free will.

Only small handfuls of humans live free, sprinkled all over the globe where ever they can hide; the rest live in mindless slavery, cybernetically modified thralls of the machine invaders. |

These massive complexes tower above the wastes like city-sized skyscrapers made of gleaming metal, reaching up to the clouds and apparently quite deep into the ground. No living human of free mind has ever been inside one, much less returned to relate their experience. | These massive complexes tower above the wastes like city-sized skyscrapers made of gleaming metal, reaching up to the clouds and apparently quite deep into the ground.
