I think you guys know how I dislike how even in Post-Scarcity Futures, human beings are more or less still biologically the same and live for only like 100-200 years and losing their tech easily makes it so they can barely survive and are extremely vulnerable to everyday and long past things
No extremely good immune system, no physiques capable of out enduring and fighting large animals, no enhanced intelligence and memory, no psychic powere etc
So any chance you guys got any series wherein the human race stopped maintaining its “genetic purity”
The Belisarius Saga by David Drake apparently has a future-backstory wherein the entirety of mankinds’ descendents have genetically or technologically modified themselves so much that they barely or no longer even resemble humans in appearance
The main antagonist has a problem with this and keeps derisively saying “THEY CALL THEM PEOPLE” and wants to make use of the Indian Caste System and obsession with “purity” to stop any future modifications and first destroy Rome
Because apparently Rome’s a place where ABILITY by the very end of the day can get you to more places than bloodline, the main antagonist is even pissed that Emperor Justinian has zero latin blood and is Thracian and his wife Empress Theodora while very intelligent and a great politician used to be a whore herself.
Whereas, in the Malwa Empire, yeah the main antagonist admits that the Malwa are full of idiots and incompetents BUT because she knows they prioritize “purity” over ability, she’s not throwing them away for the more competent and dangerous Rajputs
Changing for ability or necessity=EVIL
