' Wrote:You know, this hook you are mentioning is one heck of an interesting one. My mind is reeling from the potential outcome if examples of this were to begin making it into the open. As far as I know there are no example of this occuring but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be explored. Now, for the most part, the relationship between symbiotes and their hosts is usually one sided favoring the symbiotes and not the hosts. Not always, though and certainly plausible in a fictional universe. Suddenly creating into cannon the beginnings of what can become a mass symbiotic co-operation between two entities isn't something to be added in lightly and would require a lot of discourse on how it would be if it became so. And really, if humans and nomads come to learn that such a symbiotic co-operation between the two races turn out beneficial for both symbiote and host then they will probably do just that. It's no small matter, that's for sure, but it's not one I'd shy away from either.
Glad this thread came up, gave my brain some food.
Yeah, some of the Aoi Iseijin characters are symbiotic combinations of their human hosts and the Nomad.
They're agreeing to share their body and purpose for the knowledge and longer lifespan, perfect health etc.
Human biology is as familiar to Nomads as riding a bike to most humans, so they can easily fix terminal diseases or extend lifespans, removing one of their own creations should be a piece of cake.
