When you get the CallToAdventure, [[HeroesRUs it'll be from these guys.]] It's a tough job, but you get flexible hours and a great benefits package: Through the power of LegoGenetics, every member of this group, known amongst themselves as TheOrder, is gifted with superhuman abilities of [[SuperStrength strength,]] [[SuperIntelligence intelligence,]] toughness, [[SuperSpeed agility,]] immunity to disease, and [[{{Immortality}} biological immortality.]] They can be killed, [[NighInvulnerability though it takes a herculean effort.]] RedShirtArmy? Please. We've got no time for such nonsense. If you are a member of the , you are by admittance a badass and have a good chance of being CrazyIsCool, or at the very least CrazyPrepared. You've got PoweredArmor, [[{{BFG}} big guns]], [[{{BFS}} big swords]], and if you like, [[SwordAndGun both at once.]] [[DualWielding Or perhaps you prefer two swords?]] Maybe you've got an axe or want to DropTheHammer? [[GunsAkimbo Maybe you're more the two gun type?]] Trust me, you're not compensating for anything. Anyone who says otherwise is a JerkAss.

* GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe: Blue-skinned, rather. The vectra, a [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy proud]] warrior [[PlanetOfHats race]] that is [[OneGenderRace almost entirely female,]] like to fight with [[BladeOnAStick spears]] and [[BizarreAlienBiology possess a tail, enlarged forelimbs for digging]] and the ability to [[BigEater eat their food]] ([[EatingTheEnemy and their enemies]]) whole. They're from a terribly frigid world and have to wear thermal suits in human-normative temperatures. They are brash, adventurous and intensely physical, sort of serving as the "Space Dwarves" to the novator's SpaceElves. They get along well with humans. ''[[MarsNeedsWomen Very]]'' [[BoldlyComing well.]]

* AFatherToHisMen: Implicitly encouraged, subtly required of Order officers.

* Cyborg: Almost every Dagger has cybernetic implants, mostly subtle ones like the subdermal "infolink" computer and N-Wave Amplifiers, but some have more obvious ones like ArtificialLimbs or ElectronicEyes.

The vectra, a [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy proud]] warrior [[PlanetOfHats race]] that is [[OneGenderRace almost entirely female,]] like to fight with [[BladeOnAStick spears]] and [[BizarreAlienBiology possess a tail, enlarged forelimbs for digging]] and the ability to [[BigEater eat their food]] ([[EatingTheEnemy and their enemies]]) whole.

''[[MarsNeedsWomen Very]]'' [[BoldyComing well.]]

* OurWeaponsWillBeBoxyInTheFuture: Yup.

* BioAugmentation: Some Daggers engage in this beyond the basic enhancement package. Changes can range from altering hair or eye color, all the way to [[MultiArmedAndDangerous extra limbs]] or natural weaponry or defenses, such as [[BladeBelowTheShoulder bone blades]] or [[ShockAndAwe electric organs.]]

''[[MarsNeedsWomen Very]]'' [[BoldyComing well.]]

* FreeLoveFuture: Communal living is standard practice among the Order. This arose largely from that. Their founder [[EthicalSlut espouses it.]]

* BioAugmentation: The enhancement process. It alters the individual [[GeneticEngineeringIsTheNewNuke at the genetic level]] and is primarily [[SuperSerum chemical,]] but surgery, cybernetics, psychotherapy, mental conditioning and intense training fill in the gaps to create a balanced, multifaceted and most importantly, ''safe'' and ''repeatable'' approach to creating a SuperSoldier.
* GoodIsNotNice: The Sons of the Dagger's core objective is the preservation of the human species. Towards that end, wherever they appear, TheOrder will combat any threat by any means available. They constantly seek to better the standards of living for the human race, and represents us in extending offers of friendship and partnership to other races. Anyone who actively subverts or goes against those goals is in for a world of pain.

* ActionMom

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Pay keen attention to the ranking insigna on a Dagger's uniform. It's directly proportional to how badly they can kick your ass.

* [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe Blue Skinned Space Babe]]: The vectra, a [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy a proud]] [[PlanetOfHats warrior race]] that is [[OneGenderRace almost entirely female,]] like to fight with [[BladeOnAStick spears]] and [[BizarreAlienBiology possess a tail, enlarged forelimbs for digging]] and the ability to [[BigEater eat their food]] ([[EatingTheEnemy and their enemies]]) whole. They're from a terribly frigid world and have to wear thermal suits in human-normative temperatures. They are brash, adventurous and intensely physical, sort of serving as the "Space Dwarves" to the novator's SpaceElves. They get along well with humans. ''[[MarsNeedsWomen Very]]'' [[BoldyComing well.]]

* UsefulNotes/{{Mars}}: Mars was colonized very early on, and soon its city-states banded together and seceded from CEL, forming the [[OneWorldOrder Nation of Mars.]] [[TheWarOfEarthlyAggression Fearing that Earth might try to exact control over the wayward Martians]] and their booming mining and production industries, TheOrder openly declared their support of Martian independence. These events served as a role model for a handful of other worlds. [[PlanetOfHats Present-day Martians are characterized]] by their strong work ethic and love of life's simple pleasures.

* RightMakesMight: Damn straight.

* StraightForTheCommander: Attempting to do this to an Order officer [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking is a bad idea.]]

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Promotion in TheOrder depends as much on combat and tactical skill as leadership or strategy.

* {{Cthulhumanoid}}: The mar'koss, from Neptemos, a [[PlanetofHats A planet of]] solitary [[HunterOfMonsters hunters]]. They make expert trackers, bounty hunters, mercenaries and poison-makers. [[KnifeNut They also rather like knives.]]

* NiceHat: The standard issue officer's peaked cap, but other examples crop up amongst personal attire.

* MagicFromTechnology: The [[LegoGenetics enhancement process]] had the [[MagicGenetics unforeseen beneficial side effect]] of mutating the brain to develop a new set of pathways that, when consciously employed, enable various [[PsychicPowers Psychic]] and ElementalPowers. Though every Dagger has the potential to be an esper, not all of them use it regularly since doing so requires extensive training and augmetic surgery [[UpToEleven even beyond what a Dagger would normally undergo.[[

* OmniscientDatabase: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin The Archive.]] It's [[UpToEleven THE]] MagicalDatabase of everything, everywhere, every''when''.

** [[StandardStatusEffects Enervator]]: The ''Debuffer'' and ''Mezzer.'' Uses chemicals/elemental attacks. Has a pack that [[StandardStatusEffects can immobilize his enemies.]]

** the eidola seemingly attempted to do so and [[GoneHorriblyWrong horribly failed]], and were [[BodyHorror so warped]] by the experience that they [[{{Understatement}} really, really don't like talking about it.]]

Perhaps these guys sound like a bunch of [[MarySue Mary Sues]] to you. [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 Maybe. *sniff* Maybe.]] But when [[EverythingTryingToKillYou half the galaxy,]] including [[KillerRobot Killer Robots]], LizardFolk, a HordeOfAlienLocusts, [[{{Cult}} Doomsday Cultists,]] [[FantasticRacism anti-superhuman terrorists]], [[ZombieApocalypse a zombie plague]] and the Gods-know-what-else is out for your bacon, suddenly those [[InvincibleHero boring Invincible Heroes]] aren't so dull anymore.
