APPEARANCE: The ‘common’ appearance of a Bio-Android is quite hard to pin down as they very often share the characteristics of their biological constituents, whichever races they may be.
It is not uncommon however, for arthropod characteristics to be present in any given Bio-Android, as they are naturally proficient at metamorphosis or are quicker at harnessing the gift of evolution.
BACKGROUND: Like the other expressions of organic life they often imitate, Bio-androids progresses through stages of growth during its lifetime, however, this is often sudden or rapid after reaching the ideal point of growth. Some Bio-androids are created deliberately by governments, corporations, or renegade laboratories, while others are accidents of science, nature, or in some rare cases; magic.
A lot of folks have a natural distrust or fear of Bio-Androids, as their proliferation is not as widespread as their mechanical cousins, and they are quite often used at the forefront of experimental and sometimes illicit weapons projects. Many Bio-androids seek to downplay their differences and live in harmony with the universe, while others deem it appropriate to revel in their place as the ultimate intersection of biological life and various technologies.
Age Ranges: Biodroid's tend to have wildly varying age ranges, most commonly they are designed to be 'born' a functional adult however those that are not tend to follow either an average of their component species or the most dominant species used to make them. The same is true for their life expectancy.
