Progenitors
This conventions goal is to perfect the human body through genetic engineering. Essentially, they force evolution upon a path of "improvement" by condensing hundreds of thousands of years of random mutation into generations of careful breeding.
Progenitors are primarily interested in Life procedures. Their FACADE engineers create patchwork creatures on demand and clones of friend and enemy alike (The latter become almost undetectable spies); their results are immediate but rarely lasting. The Genengineers have greater forethought; they seek to unravel the mystery of fenes so that successive generations of humanity will improve "naturally". Finally, the Pharmacopeists study the interaction between artificially induced chemicals and the bio-chemical makeup of a living body.
