They’re shielded under unique mystery and protection to the degree that they are non-existent to the public, despite the fact that SOLDIER has been employed and within production for many years and with varying results; some demonic, others merely unmentionable by the depth of depravity that has been laden onto them.
 
The truth of SOLDIER has only been privy to those in the highest hierarchy of the Dalmastice Govern, the upper echelon that consists of elects and those of financial gain and their padded scientists that had original purpose in the years of Aeon extraction. Whilst the Dalmastice Govern possesses a basic, rudimentary military force, there is the need and employment of special, engineered weapons that are delegated to undermine the opposition through means of assassinations and obliterating power. This seeded underbelly of arsenal is the entire purpose of SOLDIER, to explore the threshold of domination and subjugation through will and power; through the catalyst of flesh and emotion; through the intentions of mutilation and discovery of violent ends. SOLDIER was conceived during the medicinal trials of Aeons, when, through the extraction, they discovered that the remains gathered were minimal in states of awareness. Most of the Aeons discovered were found in a peculiar comatose, as if the plummet from their heavens had been due to a slumber, a state that nullified their consciousness to bland existence and minimal thought. This, of course, hampered the process of cellular examination when they attempted to ply through dead tissue and deactivated membranes to try and discover their origin. Modern tools and science paled in comparison to their structure, invoking near bestial means to extract what they desired, some described horrific and medieval to try and gain through their misguided obsession to understand.
 
But, it become apparent that there was a unique component possessed in their flayed tissue, an application of manipulation and adaptation when particular elements were applied on contact. Despite their minimal states of awareness, the Aeon bodies were regenerating, albeit slowly, due to their torpid conditions. This was concluded as means of healing and sanctuary, and every new wound lain on their esoteric bodies also began showing similar signals of rejuvenation, it was memorizing and thus, entirely too appealing to those of medical knowledge and gain.
 
A council of doctors, led by a Julian Leonhardt, set about applying this new found regeneration to human trials, immediately bypassing animal testing and hypothesizes to backbone their research. They were suddenly manic in discovery, figuring that the adaptive quality of their cells would be able to transfer to mortal flesh and bone, providing a literal means of immortality to Viera. The prospect was daunting and described, at best, to be too outlandish and foolish in hopes. But the Dalamastice Govern was too enthralled and enticed by the idea of eternal life and healing, and verified the proper steps to see these human trials approved and that Julian Leaonhardt and his leading scientists any and all resources required. 
 
And that’s where things began to deform.
 
When given the proper tools and the proper encouragement, man can achieve any means of sin, and the scientists under Dalmastice were no exception. In this, the first of the sudden volunteers were gathered, dubbed the Prototypes, and the very first of the humans that were spliced and literally peeled apart to integrate Aeon properties. First, it was just injections, routine appliances of medicine, but little results yielded and the increasing needs of fruition and results corrupted Julian and his associates. The Prototypes, stripped of name and soul, were mutilated and tortured through constant alterations, and were amplified with sudden strength and manic episodes of rage. The Prototypes became beasts: terrifying human creatures that couldn’t help their sudden emotions, and resulting phenomena that occurred when their souls were invoked by these episodes of lost control.
 
Despite these initial spirits broken and deformed, they continued their research, resulting in more Prototypes that failed again and again, a formula for safe application lost when they began pushing on the boundary of morality and science. Fifteen years of torture passed.
 
A solution was finally discovered when they released the first of their pharmaceutical campaigns, starting in the medical sanctuary that had been built a few years prior, known as Nibelheim. And whilst Viera reaped the benefits of research, in the darkest of places, and in the deepest of shadows, something far more sinister had been born.
 
The Protoypes were an unforgiving project and through the fifteen years of torture and research, they were still being processed. Newer candidates and experimentation finally yielded through the adaptive prowess in Aeon cells; they finally began to bond. Certain applicants forged bonds with the Aeon cells, beginning a new conception of power and abilities that bypassed mere vitality. These were of elemental manipulation, a sense of forging the will of the world to their needs, to have sway and hold - the power of a would-be god. However, it was unable to be tempered or controlled, those that bonded soon began to lose mind and reason, propelling another age of experimentation and torture, and that’s when they revoked Aeon cells from Viera. 
 
And so, they hid. 
 
While the world suddenly warred and raged on, Julian and his council continued their research, approved by the Dalmastice Govern, but forever concealed within shadow and secrecy. People were nominated for trials, some taken, some that volunteered immediately when they became knowledgeable of the processes being carried out within Fort Lullin, the fort built entirely for this demented purpose. In this, the force of SOLDIER began to build, possessed of unique abilities and shackled by the truth of their powers, embedded with the DNA of Aeons, fostered on death and ruin, and made to be a weapon of entire purpose - no longer human. While SOLDIER is a secret, they’re slowly beginning to rise, now being employed through the Govern to temper out the dissolution of the continents, and to discover the truth of their purpose and will.
 
But SOLDIER hangs by a thread, haunted by the literal numbers marking their sanity down. It begets the question of how long they shall last before they lose their souls and minds much like their Prototype kith and kin before them.[/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent]

Also, the amount of amplification and altering they’ve endured. Those of longer endurance and years of experimentation will have adapted to harnessing more power than someone who has newly been applied. However, with the increase of power, so does come the risk of losing sanity due to the quality of the Aeon’s cells. While they do adapt and formulate to a host, strong enough to endure, mind you, the Aeon genetic code and makeup is far superior than the human counterpart. As such, the Aeon cells may try to override and corrupt even the strongest of SOLDIERS. Despite these risks, experiments continue to increase with no sign of stopping within immediate sight. The increases of such are bordering depraved and cruel, and some even die during the initial process. Only the strongest survive and heal, and within their years at Fort Lullin, they learn and slowly grow.
 
SOLDIER is unified under various classes that promote the stage at which one has peaked at with their power. First, Second, and Third, are acquired by those that have finished their healing process and begin to undergo the grueling introduction of coming to terms with their demented creation and result. Leveled to the highest of First Class, with the achievement of Commanders at the peak, these tiers are the SOLDIERS of terrifying might and power, and have come to utilize the unique components and powers found within the Aeons mutilated for this purpose. Becoming literal weapons, SOLDIERS can bend means of nature and various degrees and empathy in relation to emotional and spiritual rage. In relation to the elements of Viera, the abilities manifested adhere to a core of idealism in relation to the Aeon or SOLIDER, one usually manipulated or influenced by the other. 
 
These cores and idealisms were charted under colours that reflected components of elemental nature and meaning, and the underlying apathy and empathy that employed them. In comparison, some of these abilities are thought to be deluded examples of their Aeon masters, but through sheer trauma, be it physical or emotional, summons a sudden wealth of power to the SOLDIER under distress. The aptitude of such a manifest has been labeled as a last resort means, and in previous results, has been documented to decimate not just the threat, but the SOLDIER responsible as well. The many years of research and testing has yielded and conceived enough reaction and concept to what the Aeons might have been, and the abilities that have manifested since the Prototypes. Most Aeons have been dubbed and given a particular title to their origin or manifest, whilst others were simply given a code of reference - usually in relation to discovery and importance. Probing cells and inducing SOLDIER in mock combat, has given a unique view into the structure of their Aeon counterparts, and possibly, the final method to understand what they’ve might been before their damnation.

[indent][sup]. W H I T E . — Protection, order, law, justice, peace and morality. These cores and idealism effected Aeons and SOLDIERS through the impact of whole and good, that adhered to harmony. These Aeons were classified under a need of unity and community, means of gathering the masses, the sort that shimmer under Light and were traditionally angelic in their conception. Through their structure, they were seen to hold peculiar auras of light that soothed and healed, and SOLDIERS effected were designated as healers or protectors. However, the concepts are purely broad and when accumulating power and reason, they are seen as inflexible and willing of sacrifice, everything necessary to achieve goals of law and order.[/sup][/indent] 
 
[indent][sup]. B L U E . — Intellect, progressive, inventive, manipulative, treacherous, and deceit. When stimulated, Aeons and SOLDIERS brought forth terrifying gales and whirlwinds, or bring forth massive waves of brutal force to crush the opposition. Whilst massive in power, there is always a sense of control and potential, and that terrifying need to improve and achieve all. Aeons classified within this were the sorts that seemed to be possessed of various components, as if they had taken anything with reach to formulate their bodies into improvement; the means to change ones own capability and self. Their remains were aquatic or avian in nature, the basis allied with a nature of water and wind in conception. It’s theorized that these Aeons adhered to a severity omniscience; the knowledge of all.[/sup][/indent]
 
[indent][sup]. B L A C K . — Decay, death, ambition, enslaving, and devouring. Perhaps the most consuming of all cores and ideals, the severity of these Aeons were nearly executed when applied to the first of SOLDIER, as most perished immediately when they were consumed with death and decay so suddenly, as if burdened with a malformed parasite. Christened, or burdened, with a sense of omnipotence, the Aeons of ill-form were writhing remains of bulbous eyes and gaping maws of void, wreathed in tentacles and eldritch horror that traumatized most just by mere glimpses. Struggle and pain heralds here, within shadows, not necessarily evil, but definitely misconstrued and desiring of power.[/sup][/indent]
 
[indent][sup]. R E D . — Fury, chaos, unbound, dynamic, temperamental, destructive, and shortsighted. True to the category, stimulated Aeons of harnessed rage and endless aggression were hard to control or temper. The quivering masses suddenly wreathed in fire or lightning, and SOLDIERS burdened with them suddenly emotional and incapable of reasoning. With a core of chaos and to achieve power to the fullest degree, and values of free expression, without reflection to rules or law. Akin to fire, such attributes do what they desire, when they desire and to whomever might be within range without hindrance from others. Visualized as draonic in origin, and just as impulsive and writhing in passion.[/sup][/indent]
 
[indent][sup]. G R E E N . — Life, strength, instinct, savage, unthinking, and predatory. Initially this classification was nearly seen as passive for the dormant qualities found within the Aeons gathered, composed of rich sediments and in the process of formulating with Viera soil in their peculiar slumber. However, stimulation and proper tests yielded a savagery only capable of great and powerful creatures much like the nature they adhere and protect. Strength is found in these Aeons of rock and stone, bark and flora, and the predatory qualities theorized to be used in protecting those of similar nature and origin.[/sup][/indent]
 
[indent][sup]. C O L O U R L E S S . — Adaptation, apathy, and empathy. The original quality within Aeon remains that spurred the obsession and reason of their torture and manipulation. Such cells could borrow and take from others, melding and fusing with those of elemental nature before defusing and correlating in means of protection and preservation. They seemed to defy the rules of nature and did not bend to the elements, just merely meant to adapt as deemed appropriate. Thought capable of borrowing, there appeared to be a lingering effect that burdened those who implemented to take from others, the pain induced to manifest stricken onto even the most stalwart of SOLDIERS.[/sup][/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent]
