Faith in the Machine
No longer fully human, the Syntha see themselves as the next step in the
evolution of mankind. Their society is dedicated to the advance of science
and technology, and all facets of their life are guided by a massive artificial
intelligence called Prime. The Syntha home planet is also called Prime,
and in fact the AI and the planet are inextricably linked.
The Syntha look forward to a future in which the lines between man and machine
have disappeared, and vat grown humans, biomechanoids, cyborgs and robotic
androsynths all play a part in the ongoing experiment that is life. To the
Syntha, superiority in technology, design and functionality will inevitably
lead to dominance.
