User:Kamikaz/Project CROTALUS

In 2554, one year after the end of the Human-Covenant War, a serious problem begins to take shape. At first just a minor germ, an epidemic has swept Set, possibly brought by the Covenant invaders one year ago. The epidemic has claimed many lives and has begun to cause panic. Things become worse when a ship is discovered near Set, even though it is merely a Sangheili patrol ship. Even so, Aahil Kamal, leader of Set, believes that his people are too fragile to deal with another attack and the virus so, in an attempt to save Set, Project CROTALUS begins.

Project CROTALUS began to not only increase the population of the planet, but the strength of it's future inhabitants. There were many former UNSC scientists on Set, even ones that worked on the Spartan-III program so Kamal contracted them to work on the project. They worked to produce the formulas for the drugs so that they could be mass produced and given to newborns at birth. In a five year period, about 20 million children recieved the standard injections, 4 million per year. Drugs given to young children include:


 * Drug 9278-EG62: A drug that increases skeletal development.
 * Drug 9326-RE12:: Enhances motor skills development.
 * Drug 9534-IS32: Increases the strength of immune system significantly.
 * Drug 9643-MG50: Protein compound that increases muscle development, density, and strength.

Citizens entering into the military are given three other drugs once they enter to increase fighting capability.


 * Drug 009762-OO
 * Drug 009927-DG
