Project Anthropos

Project Anthropos' name derives from the Greek word anthropos (ἄνθρωπος) for 'human'.

Commissioned around 76,000 BCE under the supervision of the Father of Understanding Zeus, the Mother of Wisdom Saklas, and the Sacred Voice Minerva, Projects Anthropos and Pashnea sought to create a species or modified all creature species in their own image that was extremely resilient yet completely subservient.

The project's first success was achieved when the Isu scientist Phanes, now as the Heavenly Principles, successfully manipulated the DNA of a pre-existing species to force a rapid evolution into a form more suitable for the project's goals. Despite this success, however, subservience proved to be an issue and the project was threatened with closure by the Isu Authority in Eden (from Western Asia).

Running parallel to Project Anthropos or Project Pashnea was a separate initiative that sought to develop the adamant-powered Apples of Eden, Sundrop Stone, or Moonstone Opal, and by implanting a neurotransmitter into the brains of Project Anthropos' race creations or Project Pashnea's animal modifies, subservience to the Apples of Eden was achieved.

Despite Phanes' eventual exile from Eden and flight to Atlantis following his falling in love with a human and the magical removal of baby girl's neurotransmitter—an act which saw all mention of his name wiped from Isu histories, but also led to the birth of Eve, the first hybrid—the Project was initially considered a success. Phanes left his world to find a suitable world in another universe.
