CERÆBRU

When most people think of a solution to the fundamental condition of human limitation, they think of biology, of DNA, of some miracle solution capable of freezing the body in time and preventing it from undergoing its natural decay. Few who have tried to unravel this great mystery and find a solution have ever stopped to consider the role that the mind plays in such processes. At CERÆBRU Neuronetics, however, the exact opposite has been the case. Gathering great minds from all corners of the globe including even the offworld colonies, CERÆBRU has been pooling the resources and mindpower of the human race to undo that which, at one point of another, is the death of every man--ageing.

The common myth that mankind only uses 10% of their brain is, indeed, a myth, but at CERÆBRU , a realization was reached that this was not so much a myth as a misunderstanding. Indeed, 100% of the brain is regularly used, but 90% of it is coded-in limitations and barriers. So the question CERÆBRU sought to solve was how to remove these barrier. They believed that with their newest cybernetic therapy program, the mind could be altered to, in simple terms, "forget" its limitations, chief among these natural decay and ageing. However, even with the smallest of cybernetic enhancements designed to free the mind, the seal was broken, and Pandora's Box opened.

Free of even a fragment of their mental barriers, early subjects began to break free of that which had held back the human race for so long, soon performing feats both mental and physical long thought impossible or unnatural, manifesting themselves into forms no longer recognizable to those who had conscripted them. With so much potential unlocked in so rapid a span of time, however, subjects were overwhelmed by newfound abilities and thoughts entering their mind, chief among them to untether the rest and free their minds. 

Sooner rather than later, the CERÆBRU facility was under siege from within by its own creations, overwhelming security and breaching deeper into the lab in the search for additional cybernetics to finish that which their creators had started. Now, the facility is under lockdown. Corporate authorities have sealed the perimeter and are allowing nothing to enter to exit without their express permission, and any that breach these directives are to be eliminated on sight with extreme prejudice. Including press. Especially, press.

You are a member of an advanced CERÆBRU security detail. Access past the perimeter and into the facility has been granted. Your instructions are to contain the breach, and eliminate any and all evidence of this endeavor gone wrong.
