Augmented

The Augmented, typically confused with meta-humans, are naturally and unnaturally occurring augmentations in the human, or otherwise alien, genome. The augmented can have powers and even higher conditions than that of a regular human being, however, their augmentations are meant for mostly survival. These augmetnations are used to change their conditions; like granting them photosynthesis, slower or greater metabolisms, stronger muscles or bones, extra-limbs, tougher skin, etc. Unlike other powers that seem to be supernatural or psychic, these seem to be a bit more scientific.
