Editing 8-Bit Dystopia (section)

==MetPharm==
The world's best researchers in organ regrowth and augmentation... just last year they announced that, yes, they did use alien stock in their parts. They expected a huge backlash, but nothing happened. Maybe it was because the populace was so used to bionics. Maybe it was because the alien presence was "minimal", tiny bits of code from beings described as "smallish, floating, electricity-drinking jellyfish". Or maybe it's because the ones with the implants just... don't talk back when it comes to MetPharm. Just as well.

Mother Brain wouldn't let them, anyway.

===Zebes===
Zebes is a planet owned solely by MetPharm. Hidden somewhere in the system from prying eyes it serves as the main arm of Met pharm. From here is gathers the vast majority of the raw materials, technology and even life forms that are converted into Bio-augments and drugs back in the City for sale. From zebes creatures such as the metroid, and various aliens sold as exotic pets to those willing to pay the exorbitant fees.

===Mother Brain===
MetPharm has a leader folks don't talk about too much. A giant brain. The orchestrator of Zebes. An alien. Of course theres more to it than that. To say the mother-brain is merely an alien is like saying a laser pistol is merely a gun. The mother brain is the networked system through which metpharm operates. It is in essence driving force behind all decisions. It is also never spoken about outside of the select individuals privileged to speak with it. These hands and feet are hand picked by the creature to be its emissaries amongst humanity.

===Chozo===
The native inhabitants of Zebes, Which is currently hidden far from prying eyes. The Chozo are never seen by the common man and even most of the employees of metpharm only know of it as a sort of Skunk works. A common reference for a person that simply goes missing amongst met pharm employees is that the Chozo got him. The Chozo are a race of highly intelligent avian humanoids that have mastered both machines and biological sciences. It is from them that many of the technologies that are used by Met pharm were first produced. This includes such things as the metroids, the standard issue power armor, blaster technologies and most bio-augments.

===Metroids===
All-purpose genetic instruments created by the Chozo. They can grow organs for transplant, produce retrovirii, and collect genetic material. Metroids are in there most pure form the base from which the vast bulk of metpharm technology and products are developed from. Things such as the ever present E-tank were first developed using the unique steroid like hormones that a metroid produces when it breeds or is exposed to energy. Several major bio-morphic weapons platforms are also directly able to trace their lineage back to these at first glance rather harmless little blobs with teeth.
