Damage Control Chapter 3: Hel

USEF Report Dagon, section C (Culture), Paragraph 5-11, Rank HEL-6

Almost all of the ‘threat’ posed by the Atlanteans is, fundamentally, cultural. It is also largely unintentional.

The most unique aspect of Atlantean biology has nothing to do with their more obvious traits. While their dramatically varied appearances, underwater adaptations, and ability to interbreed freely between members of the species are curious, what stands out most is their cellular senescence.

There is none.
