* {{Pheromones}}: Guardian parahumans have a combination of [[LivingAphrodisiac sex pheromones]] and [[PowerPerversionPotential dominance pheromones]]. They're specifically designed to be masters of normal humans.
* PowerPerversionPotential: The supplement is very aware of this trope, with its "enhanced female secondary and male primary sexual characteristics", [[ExoticEquipment "Exotic Genitalia"]] and "Prehensile Tongue" all giving bonuses on Erotic Art rolls.

* MagicGenetics: The supplement has a section on magical genetic engineering. Along with replicating scientific possibilities, it allows genengineering ability to cast any spell into a not-yet-born child. It is cheaper than making an ordinary magical item, but risks making a PhlebotinumRebel. Otherwise, it tries hard to avert this trope. For example, [[WingedHumanoid angel-like wings]] can be genengineered, but don't give the ability to fly in 1 G. They might be useful at lower gravity or in a space habitat, though.

''GURPS Bio-Tech'', by David Morgan-Mar and David Pulver, is a ''TabletopGame/{{GURPS}}'' supplement dedicated to all manner of organic technologies -- mostly science-fictional, but with some coverage of historical and contemporary medicine and science too. Strictly speaking, there have been two books with this title; the first, by Pulver alone, was for ''GURPS'' third edition, while the second enlarged, expanded, and updated the material for ''GURPS'' fourth edition.
