When required, food is broken down by the cluster of 'nanites', swallowed and digested naturally. Each particle within the visor is an individual 'nanite', each of which are programmed to simulate a functional muscle and nervous system within the face. However, Protogen do not have the capability for natural reproduction.Ī Protogen's visor is crafted using a special 'nanite' (Nano-Computer) matter capable of changing shape and moving, allowing the Protogen to form a functional mouth and consume/eat food, as their digestive tract is functional. Unlike the Primagen, a Protogen's biological organs remain intact, and as such, are required to function for the health of the Protogen. Protogen have biological ears, and can have up to 3 sets on rare variants. Protogen are approximately 40% artificial, with the large majority of their internal workings remaining biological in nature. It might possibly have the ability to display two colors at once in a gradient. Compared to the Primagen, they are more mammal-like in appearance, sporting a more upright stature, alongside a shorter, rounder visor, that is capable of displaying many emotions. Protogen are Anthro, cyborg-like creatures.
