Arcano-Genetic Revision

Arcano-Genetic Revision (AGR) is a technology allowing for the complete rewriting of a creature's biology using Viral Micro-Enchanting based techniques. A specially constructed Arcanovirus is created that contains desired genetic code and the substrate creature (usually an embryo) is infected with this concoction.   Owing to the limited size of most Arcanoviruses, complicated creatures may require several different viral injections with different effects.

Utility

Used to rewrite a creature's biology. While Viral Micro-Enchanting involves enchanting a creature's biology with a magical inscription, AGR is more general purpose, allowing the insertion or removal of organs or limbs or even the complete rearrangement of a creature's vasculature given enough skill.   Completely synthetic creatures can be created with this technique, such as beholders, unicorns, chimera, phoenixes, basilisks, and the like.
