** '''Harmony''': A lot of people stereotype the Harmony affinity as a very peace-loving, eco-hippie, Film/{{Avatar}}-esque ideology. Thinking about it, Harmony is really all about taking lessons from the [[BigCreepyCrawlies toothy, chittering horrors that infest the planet]] and ''splicing their DNA into their citizens'' to create a new race of freakish mutant {{Half Human Hybrid}}s, even if it is to help them adapt to the hostile alien ecosystem. Not to mention cloning and genetically modifying the alien wildlife and unleashing them as weapons of war, and also possibly being played for suckers by the alien ecosystem and becoming a horrible biological version of [[Franchise/StarTrek the Borg]]. Topping it off with abandoning Earth.

*** '''Harmony-Supremacy''' is the absolute worst, [[TheUnfettered doing whatever it takes to strengthen themselves and survive their new alien world]]. Even if it means [[BodyHorror replacing their body parts with both alien ones and machinery]] [[HeWhoFightsMonsters until they're no longer recognizable as]], [[WasOnceAMan or could be considered human]]. WordOfGod says that [[EveryoneHasStandards ALL the other affinites think they've gone too far]].

*** '''Harmony-Supremacy''' is probably the absolute worst, most unambiguously sinister alignment -- While the other affinities are chasing some [[ProHumanTranshuman philosophical ideal]], Harmony-Supremacy cares only for [[TheUnfettered doing whatever it takes to strengthen themselves power and survive their new alien world]]. Even if it means survival at any cost]]. Their bodies and vehicles are [[BodyHorror replacing a bizarre mishmash]] of alien and cybernetic parts, to the point where only their body parts with both alien ones and machinery]] [[HeWhoFightsMonsters until they're no longer recognizable as]], [[WasOnceAMan or could be considered human]]. generally humanoid shape [[TranshumanAliens is the only clue that they were ever human to begin with]]. Notably, WordOfGod says that this negative perception exists in-universe as well, [[EveryoneHasStandards ALL as all the other affinites affinities think they've gone these guys are going too far]].
