Diana Racial Template

Diana (TL9)

47 points

For the most part the Diana genotype is a typical Homo superior type, similar to the Alpha. However, Dianic parahumans cannot become pregnant unless they wish to, and they cannot bear male children. Male fetuses are spontaneously aborted by an autoimmune reaction by the time they reach the hundred-cell stage. Meanwhile, the brain and hormonal mechanisms responsible for gender identity have been subtly modified, giving them a strong predisposition toward homosexuality. Not all Diana upgrades are lesbians, but most of them are at least bisexual, and fully heterosexual examples are rare.
