We are the Subjects of Perfection

Description

Some more art of my fanfic 'Subjects of Perfection' which can be found on fanfiction under the 'Sherlock' section.

Basically, there was an organisation well ahead technologically that created the first artifical human life.

Out of the millions of failures, there were five that were successful. They were named the 'Subjects'.

The first success was Mycroft- named by the people who created him as 'Number One'. There were however a few faults with Mycroft, as he displayed complete apathy and inability to express real emotions.

Next came Irene- she was named 'Number Two'. She showed certain emotions, but not others, generally displaying a strong sociopathic nature and apathy towards the emotions of others.

Then came Sherlock- the first of the creations to display genuine emotion across the spectrum, but like the previous successes, he is apathetic and shows sociopathic tendancies. He was named 'Number Three'- or 'Lucky Number Three' by some as he was considered at the time to be the true successful recreation of human life (unlike his predecessors).

After Sherlock came James. James, like the others displayed apathy and like Sherlock felt genuine emotions, but these emotions were distorted (a.k.a madness). James displayed concerning bouts of insanity and some wanted to terminate this experiement. The suggestion was ignored. He was named Number Four.

Finally Anthea, named Number Five. She and Sherlock were deemed the most successful out of the five Subjects as both displayed genuine emotion with no psychological concerns. Anthea in particular was praised due to her ability to empathise, a trait none of her prodecessors possessed.

Since Anthea, there were several more attempts to recreate human life without cloning and all have failed.
In 1994, all five Subjects revolted against their creators and the facility was destroyed including all the resources to make artificial life. It was intended that this be all, that the lives went free so long as they did not attempt to recreate life again.
The Subjects each went their own way, making normal lives for themselves, keeping in contact and calling each other 'Brother' and 'Sister' as they had seen real humans calling their close kin.
There was peace.
However, over the years the scientists working at the facility where the Subjects were created have been dying under mysterious circumstances.

All the Subjects have enhancements that normal Humans don't have, since as well as creating artificial life, they also wanted to improve Human life. Their intention had been to use the Subjects as medical guinea pigs.
Enhancements made to the Subjects are basically x3 everything (except aging, that was slowed)
- x3 Stronger than the average Human
- x3 Stamina, speed, reflexes and agility
- x3 Brain capacity: this includes problem solving, calculating, etc etc
- x3 Physical structure: bone strength, muscle fibres, immune system, healing ability, metabolism and respiratory systems

Subjects also developed additional, unexpected mental abilities:
One- Suggestion: ability to inflict thoughts and feelings on another with words
Two- Pheromone Manipulation: able to induce certain feelings both physical and emotional with words, touch or actions
Three- Clairvoyance: uncanny ability to memorise maps of areas and detect when a familiar individual is near and identify said individual
Four- Precognition: vague reports of future events that come to pass, understanding of the effects certain actions have on the future
Five- Technopathy: ability to familiarise with any piece of technology within seconds of picking it up

The coloured numbers on each are their names in number form :D

Some of my artwork of SoP: [link]

The woman at the bottom is Lisa McAllister who plays Anthea in BBC, I couldn't get any decent pictures of Anthea, so I settled for a picture of McAllister :)

Concept is mine x
Sherlock Holmes and co belong to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the BBC, Benedict Cumberbatch, Mark Gatiss, Lara Pulver, Lisa McAllister and Andrew Scott
