APES TOGETHER STRONG: 3 SLEEVES FOR ANY PRIMATE

While hominids and panids (who make up around 10% of the population of known space) generally have their pick of sleeves, other primate uplifts are not always so fortunate.  They often struggle to find a body of their own species and chimeras may not be well suited to their neurologies.

OAI INDUSTRIES, INC. "P-AN"

OAI is proud to the P-AN, a unique transgenic primate sleeve designed to suit any primate.  PA-N is not a chimera!  It is 100% naturally grown from a synthetic primate genome.  OAI's proprietary process has been certified by the Evangelical Solarian Church, the Neocatholic Church, and the Alliance for Uplift Rights.  Our process is also certified halal* and kosher.**  PA-N is a sleeve that you can live in and enjoy.

DESCRIPTION

The PA-N is a premium civilian sleeve.  It looks like a smaller, more gracile chimpanzee with dignified features and long, shimmering fur (available in any naturally-occurring color and many different patterns).  The P-AN is carefully designed to minimize dysphoria in primate users and it looks aesthetically pleasing (or at least inoffensive) to most primates.  It a very popular sleeve among middle managers and professionals and is also popular among death insurance companies despite its relatively high price tag because it takes just one year to flash clone to adulthood and is easy to store on ice.

HORIZON NEUROGEN "KAKOKU"

• Horizon's Kakoku combat sleeve is the perfect combination of size and lethality; it is lightweight, dexterous, and stronger than an adult human!

• The Kakoku includes our proprietary Redwire(tm) amygdala prosthesis system and an integral combat drug dispenser. 

• Rated for short-duration exposure to vacuum (>5 minutes).  Horizon recommends that all operators wear goggles before vacuum exposure.  The sleeve's integral protections are not a substitute for a vacsuit.  Take appropriate precautions!
