In the years following the war, one of the companies responsible initiated the development of a second generation of ''ubersoldaten'' whose enhancements were entirely biological. These new ''ubersoldaten'' were designed to have lower baseline metabolic and oxygen requirements (manifesting in slowed breathing and heart rates) that would lead to coma-like conditions in ordinary humans. Further their physical and mental reflexes along with strength and endurance were intended to be heightened, and the appendix was made full functional to allowing them to derive peak nutritional value from a wide variety of food stuffs. | In the years following the war, one of the companies responsible initiated the development of a second generation of ''ubersoldaten'' whose enhancements were entirely biological.

While the technology involved was presumably human-devised, potentially augemented by reverse-engineered [[Ice Warrior]] science, the [[Seventh Doctor|Doctor]] ruminated that the muscle structures programmed into the second generation's genome resembled those belonging to [[Time Lords]] of a bygone era. | While the technology involved was presumably human-devised, potentially augemented by reverse-engineered [[Ice Warrior]] science, the [[Seventh Doctor|Doctor]] ruminated that the muscle structures programmed into the second generation's genome resembled those belonging to [[Time Lords]] of a bygone era. | ||
Aware of this project but unwilling to interfere directly, an individual likely to be a future incarnation of the Doctor made contact with the hacker known as [[Francine|the Angel Francine]], a veteran of the [[Thousand Day War]]. Using her contacts amongst her [[Veterans Society|fellow veterans]], she arranged for an armed raid on the eugenics facility that destroyed the projects's physical infrastructure and research data archives. However, the raid revealed that a single prototype had already been created; rather than being euthanased, the newborn was instead adopted and raised as [[Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart]].
