Biotechnology opened up many new possibilities to humanity. The distinctive properties of biomechs, exotic beasts, biomachines and human augmentation conveyed advantages that classical technology couldn't match.
Yet as with any tech, not everyone liked all of the new possibilities that became viable.
"Just because you can, doesn't mean you should."
This phrase was bandied around a lot. There were lots of applications that people abhorred or thought went too far for their liking. Yet as long as options existed, there were always advocates who wished to embrace them. Different personalities became attracted to different possibilities. There were always supporters out there who invested in an idea no matter how crazy or harmful it sounded!
This meant that the LRA was home to a lot of obscure groups and organizations that supported anything from cultivating superhumans by growing them like biomechs to converting giant exobeasts into pilotable biomachines!
