Micropolis, year 50, part I

For the illustrated story, click: --> Year 50 a <-- (33 pictures, 600x450 )

"OMG GMO": GMO is short for "genetically modified organism". Actually we have genetically modified animals and plants since we first invented agriculture and started breeding for useful traits, but in the near future we should be able to directly rewrite the genetic code on a large scale. How could that possibly go wrong?

Summary of major events:

GMO crossover outbreak!
-All adults must roll 2 or higher against plantsimism.
-Plantsims must roll 4 or better against spawning.
Gravel Road:
-Alison Craft became a plantsim!
-Alison Craft spawned a plantbaby, Viridia. (No points.)
-Travis Jordan grew up to toddler.
-Sally Olsen grew up well to elder.
