Enhanced Body

The human body is a amazing masterpiece of natural selection, processed, refined, and slowly evolving through a process started billions of years ago. We have a powerful brain, streamlined body, and our most useful appendage, our hands. With training our body becomes extremely powerful, capable of crippling any animal, rending steel, and pulverizing stone without fangs or claws. Yet our body is also very easily crippled as well. an average human is very weak, unable to control their own body properly, and, in the modern society very lazy. Our bodies now suffer from obesity, all sorts of sickness, and a general lack of use.

Some say that the age of powerful warriors has long past, reserved merely for athletes and soldiers. In many ways I agree, however I still feel the primal urge to progress. I want to be stronger and faster. Survival instinct, even if outdated in daily life, still tells me to be the best I can be, and to never be satisfied. To that end, I dream of a truly enhanced body. But I am not talking about drugs or a few enhancements here and there, but being able to do things I can only dream of. I want to fly into the sky, jump higher than any building, and break free of my physical limits. That is why I identify myself with the enhanced body.
