It takes a considerable amount of time to transform normal humans into Space Marines. They receive implants known as gene-seed which transform their bodies and give them superhuman abilities - making them capable of spitting corrosive venom, absorbing the memories of the dead by eating their flesh, darkening their skin to protect it from radiation, and operating for long periods without sleep by switching off parts of their brains at a time. Wounds suffered by a Space Marine that would take a baseline human months to heal, if they ever healed at all, take only days to recover from.

将普通人转变为星际战士需要相当长的时间。他们接受了被称为基因种子的植入物,这种植入物可以改变他们的身体,赋予他们超人的能力 — 使他们能够吐出腐蚀性毒液,通过吞食血肉来吸收死者的记忆,使皮肤变黑以保护其免受辐射,并通过一次关闭部分大脑来长时间不睡觉。星际战士所受的创伤,对于一个普通人类而言,即便能够愈合,也需要数月时间,而星际战士只需几天便可恢复。

Anatomy of a Space Marine 星际战士的剖析

Recruits are subjected to psycho-indoctrination and conditioning, strengthening their resolve and honing them into dedicated and merciless warriors. Not all recruits survive the brutal training, of course, and not all are accepted.

新兵接受心理灌输和训练,增强他们的决心,把他们磨练成忠诚无情的战士。当然,并非所有新兵都能在残酷的训练中幸存下来,也并非所有人都被接受。

Selection 选择

Recruits are typically chosen from the best warriors among humanity. Naturally this makes Death and Feral Worlds prized recruitment grounds, as such harsh and primal conditions produce the best warriors. However, hive worlds are considered the ideal source of potential recruits; while the populace of the lower levels are often composed of some of the most murderous scum in the human Imperium, more importantly, the higher the population of a world, the higher the chance to find truly impressive individuals. Whole gangs of hive scum are sometimes hunted down and captured for recruitment, although chapters typically prefer volunteers. Among the most valued traits in a recruit are aggression and psychotic-level killer instinct. More rarely, certain civilized worlds are also recruited from.

新兵通常是从人类中最好的战士中挑选出来的。自然地,这使得死亡和蛮荒世界成为珍贵的招募地,因为如此恶劣和原始的条件造就了最好的战士。然而,巢都世界被认为是潜在新兵的理想来源;虽然下层民众通常由人类帝国中一些最凶残的渣滓组成,但更重要的是,世界人口越多,找到真正令人印象深刻的人的机会就越大。尽管战团通常更喜欢志愿者,但有时会追捕并抓捕整群巢都渣滓进行招募。新兵最有价值的特质之一是攻击性和心理水平的杀手本能。更罕见的是,某些文明世界也被招募。

Requirements 招募

Recruits must be fairly young, because implants often do not become fully functional if the recipient has reached a certain level of physical maturity. They must be male because the geneseed zygotes are keyed to male hormones and genetic structure. Only a small percentage of people are compatible with the implants and hypno-suggestion necessary to turn them into Marines. Before the process of implantation begins the potential recruit receives tissue compatibility tests and psychological screening. If the testing proves successful the recruit becomes an aspirant. After the organ implantation process begins he becomes a neophyte. When the final implant is in place and the requisite training and hypnotherapy complete, he becomes a full brother.

新兵必须相当年轻,因为如果接受者已经达到一定的身体成熟度,植入物通常不会完全发挥作用。他们必须是雄性,因为基因种子合子与雄性激素和遗传结构有关。只有一小部分人能够接受将他们变成战士所需的植入物和催眠建议。在植入过程开始之前,潜在的新兵接受组织相容性测试和心理筛查。如果测试成功,新兵就会成为有志者。器官植入过程开始后,他就成了新进者。当最后的植入物就位,必要的训练和催眠治疗完成后,他就成了一个完全的修士。

Even once the organs are implanted they are generally inactive or useless without associated training, hypnotherapy, and chemical treatment. Most recruits join the ranks as a brother between the ages of 16-18 years.

即使器官被植入,如果没有相关的训练、催眠治疗和化学治疗,它们通常也是不活跃或无用的。大多数新兵在16-18岁之间以修士的身份加入队伍。

Implants 植入物

The 19-22 (plus, rarely, 1) implanted organs are very complicated, and because several of them only work properly or at all in the presence of other implants, the removal, mutation, or failure of one organ can affect the precise functioning of the others. Because of this, and the fact that each Chapter's gene-seed belongs to that Chapter alone, different Chapters display different characteristics and use different sets of implants and methods of implantation. A "geneseed organ" retains this name even when it is spread across multiple implants, such as the Progenoids or Betcher's Gland, and/or is a cybernetic implant rather than an organ in the traditional sense.

19-22个(上下波动一个)植入的器官非常复杂,因为其中几个只有在其他植入物存在的情况下才能正常工作或完全工作,一个器官的切除、突变或衰竭会影响其他器官的精确功能。正因为如此,以及每个战团的基因种子只属于该战团的事实,不同的战团显示出不同的特征,并使用不同的植入物和植入方法。即使“基因种子器官”分布在多个植入物上,如基因存收腺或贝彻腺体,和/或是一种智控植入物,而不是传统意义上的器官,它也保留了这个名字。

Implant Stages 植入阶段

Throughout the implantation process the Marine must undergo various forms of conditioning in order for the implanted organs to develop and become part of his physiology.

在整个植入过程中,战士必须经历各种形式的调节,以便植入的器官发育并成为其生理的一部分。

Listed below is the complete set of implants used:

下面列出了使用的整套植入物:

  • If the Marine is from a chapter that drinks something derived from their gene-seed, as Space Wolves and Blood Angels do, this is done either before (as in Space Wolves) or after (as in Blood Angels) every other phase.

  • 如果战士来自一个喝来自他们基因种子的东西的战团,就像太空野狼和圣血天使一样,这要么在每隔一个阶段之前(如太空野狼)要么在之后(如圣血天使)完成。

  • Phases 1-3 can be introduced at the same time, ideally between 10 and 12 years of age; Phase 1 remains ideal until age 14, but 13-14 are not ideal for Phases 2 or 3.

  • 阶段1-3可以同时引入,理想情况下在10至12岁之间;第一阶段在14岁之前仍然是理想的,但13-14岁对于第二或第三阶段来说并不理想。

    • If the Marine is receiving Primaris implants, the Sinew Coils and Magnificat are introduced between Phases 3 and 4, in that order or simultaneously; their ideal age is 12-13. The Belisarean Furnace is presumably introduced during this time as well, but in what order, and at what ideal age, is unknown; apparently all three are always introduced across at most 2 steps, so the Furnace is presumably always simultaneous with at least one of the other two. These 1-2 phases are unnumbered, and are instead known as the Primaris Alpha and Primaris Beta phases.

    • 如果战士正在接受原铸植入,肌腱线圈和圣颂垂体将按顺序或同时在第3和第4阶段之间引入;他们的理想年龄是12-13岁。贝利撒留熔炉大概也是在这段时间引入的,但其顺序和理想年龄尚不清楚;显然,这三个步骤总是最多两个步骤,因此熔炉可能总是与另外两个步骤中的至少一个同时进行。这1-2个阶段没有编号,而是被称为原铸阿尔法和原铸贝塔阶段。

  • Phases 4 and 5 can be introduced at the same time, ideally between 12 and 14 years of age.

  • 第4和第5阶段可以同时进行,最好在12至14岁之间。

  • Hypnotherapy normally begins at phase 6, ideally sometime between 14 and 17 years of age.

  • 催眠治疗通常在第6阶段开始,理想情况下在14至17岁之间。

  • Phases 7 to 9 are normally introduced simultaneously, ideally at a point between 14 and 16 years old.

  • 第7至第9阶段通常同时引入,最好在14至16岁之间。

  • Phases 10 and 11 are also ideally implanted between the ages of 14 and 16.

  • 第10和第11阶段最好在14至16岁之间植入。

  • Phases 12 and 13 are ideally implanted between the ages of 15 and 16.

  • 第12和13阶段最好在15至16岁之间植入。

  • Phases 14 and 15 may be introduced at the same time, ideally between 15 and 16 years of age.

  • 第14和第15阶段可以同时引入,理想情况下在15至16岁之间。

  • Phases 15 to 19 are then ideally introduced to the recipient between the ages of 16 and 18.

  • 第15至19阶段最好在16至18岁之间引入给接受者。

Canis Helix 狼之螺旋

Phase 0: Unique to the Space Wolves chapter, their aspirants drink something derived from their Chapter's gene-seed prior to the rest of the process, in an intricate procedure involving this "Canis Helix". See also Insanguination, the Blood Angels equivalent which happens at the end.

第0阶段:太空野狼战团的独特之处在于,在涉及“狼之螺旋”的复杂程序中,他们的有志者在剩下的过程之前喝下来自战团基因种子的东西。另见最后发生的圣血天使。

Secondary Heart 第二心脏

Phase 1: This simplest and most self-sufficient of implants allows a Space Marine to survive his other heart being damaged or destroyed, and to survive in low oxygen environments. Not just a back-up, the secondary heart can boost the blood flow around the Marine's body.

第一阶段:这种最简单、最自给自足的植入物使星际战士能够在另一颗心脏受损或毁坏的情况下存活下来,并在低氧环境中生存。不仅是一个备用心脏,还可以促进战士周身的血液流动。

Ossmodula 骨骼强化器官

Phase 2: A small, complex, tubular organ, the ossmodula secretes hormones that both affect the ossification of the skeleton and encourages the forming bone growths to absorb ceramic-based chemicals that are laced into the Marine's diet. This drastically alters the way a Space Marine's bones grow and develop. Two years after this implant is first put in the subject's long bones will have increased in size and strength (along with most other bones), and the rib cage will have been fused into a solid, bulletproof mass of interlocking plates. It is not clear how a Space Marine's (non-implanted) lungs operate without a rib cage that can expand and contract.

第二阶段:骨骼强化器官是一个小型、复杂的管状器官,分泌激素,既影响骨骼的骨化,又促进骨骼生长,吸收战士饮食中添加的陶钢基化学物质。这彻底改变了星际战士骨骼的生长和发育方式。在这种植入物首次植入受试者体内两年后,受试者的长骨(以及大多数其他骨骼)的大小和强度都会增加,肋骨将融合成一个坚固的、防弹的联锁板块。目前尚不清楚星际战士(未植入)的肺部在没有可以膨胀和收缩的肋骨的情况下是如何运作的。

  • Known mutations:

  • 著名突变:

    • Black Dragons have a mutated Ossmodula, resulting in bony growths on their foreheads, elbows, and/or forearms.

    • 黑龙的骨骼强化器官发生了突变,导致其额头、肘部和/或前臂出现骨质生长。

Biscopea 肌肉强化器官

Phase 3: This small, circular organ is inserted into the chest cavity and releases hormones that vastly increase muscle growth throughout the marine's body. It also serves to form the hormonal basis for many of the later implants.

第三阶段:这个小的圆形器官被插入胸腔,释放激素,大大增加整个战士身体的肌肉生长。它还为许多后来的植入物奠定了激素基础。

Primaris Implants 原铸植入

In addition to the above, the new line of Primaris Space Marines are given three additional implants that allow for their superior size and strength in addition to a greater level of genetic stability. The Primaris implants take place between Phases 3 and 4, known as the Primaris Alpha and Primaris Beta phases. Both phases can be introduced simultaneously.

除此之外,原铸星际战士的新系列还获得了三个额外的植入物,这些植入物除了具有更高的遗传稳定性外,还具有更优的尺寸和强度。原铸植入发生在第3和第4阶段之间,称为原铸阿尔法和原铸贝塔阶段。这两个阶段可以同时引入。

Sinew Coils 肌腱线圈

Phase 3 Alpha: Also known as the Steel Within. The Space Marine's sinews (tendons and ligaments) are reinforced with durametallic coil-cables that contract with incredible force, dramatically magnifying the subject's strength beyond that of a regular Space Marine and giving another layer of interior defense, which greatly increases their durability.

第三阶段阿尔法:也称为钢铁内构。星际战士的肌腱(肌腱和韧带)用硬金属线圈电缆加固,这些电缆以难以置信的力量收缩,极大地增强了受试者的力量,使其超过了普通星际战士的力量,并提供了另一层内部防御,大大提高了他们的韧性。

Magnificat 圣颂垂体

Phase 3 Beta: Known as the Amplifier, this small thumbnail-sized lobe is inserted into the brain's core. The implant secretes hormones that increases the body's growth functions while also intensifying its advanced systems, especially the ossmodula and biscopea. In truth, this implant is but half of the true, dual-valve immmortis gland (the "God-Maker") which the Emperor made for the Primarchs. Belisarius Cawl was able to build the "dextrophic" lobe (right half) but discovered that information on the "sintarius" (left half) had been wholly eradicated by an unknown force.

第3阶段贝塔:被称为增幅器,这个拇指甲大小的小叶被插入大脑的核心。植入物分泌激素,增加身体的生长功能,同时增强其高级系统,特别是骨骼强化器官和肌肉强化器官。事实上,这个植入物只是帝皇为原体制造的真正的双瓣膜不朽腺体(“造神者”)的一半。贝利撒留·考尔能够构建“右生”垂体(右半部分),但发现“隐秘垂体”(左半部分)的信息已被一种未知的力量完全根除。

Belisarian Furnace 贝利撒留熔炉

Phase Unknown: Known as the Revitalizer, this dormant organ connects to both hearts. In times of extreme stress or trauma, it expels self-manufactured chemicals similar to combat stimms that also aid in regeneration. After activation, the gland will fall dormant again, taking some time to build itself up for activation once more. While information is scarce on when this implant normally occurs, it appears to lack its own phase, instead implanted with either the Sinew Coils, Magnificat, or both.

未知阶段:这个休眠器官被称为复活器,与两颗心脏相连。在极端压力或创伤的时候,它会排出类似于对抗刺激的自制化学物质,这些化学物质也有助于再生。激活后,腺体将再次进入休眠状态,需要一些时间来建造自己以再次激活。虽然关于这种植入通常何时发生的信息很少,但它似乎缺乏自己的阶段,而是与肌腱线圈、圣颂垂体一起或两者兼而有之。

Haemastamen 重造血器官

Phase 4: Implanted into the main circulatory system, this tiny implant not only increases the haemoglobin content of the subject's blood, making it more efficient at carrying oxygen around the body and making the subject's blood a bright red, it also serves to monitor and control the actions of the phase 2 and phase 3 implants.

第四阶段:植入主循环系统,这种微小的植入物不仅增加了受试者血液中的血红蛋白含量,使其更有效地在周身携带氧气,使受试者的血液呈鲜红色,还用于监测和控制第二阶段和第三阶段植入物的动作。

Larraman's Organ 拉瑞曼器官

Phase 5: A liver-shaped organ about the size of a golf-ball, this implant is placed within the chest cavity and connected to the circulatory system. It generates and controls 'Larraman cells', which are released into the blood stream if the recipient is wounded. They attach themselves to leukocytes (white blood cells) in the blood and are carried to the site of the wound, whereupon contact with air they form a near instant patch of scar tissue, sealing any wounds the Space Marine may suffer - acting like platelets, only better.

第五阶段:一个高尔夫球大小的肝脏状器官,这种植入物被放置在胸腔内并连接到循环系统。它产生并控制“拉瑞曼细胞”,如果受体受伤,这些细胞会释放到血液中。它们附着在血液中的白细胞(白血细胞)上,并被带到伤口部位,与空气接触后,它们几乎立即形成疤痕组织,密封了星际战士可能遭受的任何伤口 — 就像血小板一样,但效果更好。

Catalepsean Node 调控神经节点

Phase 6: Implanted into the back of the brain, this pea-sized organ influences the circadian rhythms of sleep and the body's response to sleep deprivation. If deprived of sleep, the catalepsean node cuts in. The node allows a Marine to sleep and remain awake at the same time by switching off areas of his brain sequentially. This process cannot replace sleep entirely, but increases the Marine's survivability by allowing perception of the environment while resting. This means that a Space Marine needs no more than 4 hours of sleep a day, and can potentially go for 2 weeks without any sleep at all.

第六阶段:植入大脑后部,这个豌豆大小的器官会影响睡眠的昼夜节律和身体对睡眠剥夺的反应。如果被剥夺了睡眠,调控神经节点就会切入。该节点通过顺序关闭大脑区域,使战士既能入睡,又能保持清醒。这个过程不能完全取代睡眠,但通过在休息时感知环境,提高了战士的生存能力。这意味着一名战士每天只需要不超过4小时的睡眠,并且可以在两周内根本不睡觉。

Preomnor 预置胃

Phase 7: This is essentially a pre-stomach that can neutralise otherwise poisonous or indigestible foods. No actual digestion takes place in the preomnor, as it acts as a decontamination chamber placed before the natural stomach in the body's system and can be isolated from the rest of the digestive tract in order to contain particularly troublesome intake.

第7阶段:这基本上是一个胃前阶段,可以中和有毒或难以消化的食物。没有实际的消化发生在预置胃,因为它充当了一个放置在身体系统中天然胃之前的净化室,可以与消化道的其他部分隔离开来,以控制特别麻烦的摄入。

Omophagea 基因侦测神经

Phase 8: This implant, also called "the Remembrancer", allows a Space Marine to 'learn by eating'. It is situated in the spinal cord but is actually part of the brain. Four nerve bundles are implanted connecting the spine and the stomach wall. Able to 'read' or absorb genetic material consumed by the marine, the omophagea transmits the gained information to the Marine's brain as a set of memories or experiences. It is the presence of this organ which has led to the various flesh-eating and blood-drinking rituals for which the Astartes are famous, as well as giving names to chapters such as the Blood Drinkers and Flesh Tearers. Over time, mutations in this implant have given some chapters unnatural cravings for blood or flesh.

第8阶段:这种植入物也被称为记忆器,可以让星际战士“通过吃来学习”。它位于脊髓中,但实际上是大脑的一部分。植入四个神经束,连接脊柱和胃壁。能够“阅读”或吸收战士吃的遗传物质,基因侦测神经将获得的信息作为一组记忆或经历传递给战士的大脑。正是由于这个器官的存在,阿斯塔特以各种食肉和吸血仪式而闻名,并为饮血者和撕肉者等战团命名。随着时间的推移,这种植入物的突变使一些战团对血液或血肉产生了不自然的渴望。

  • Known mutations:

  • 著名突变:

    • Blood Angels have an overactive Omophagea, but whether or to what extent this is relevant to The Flaw is unclear.

    • 圣血天使有一个过度活跃的基因侦测神经,但这是否或在多大程度上与缺陷有关尚不清楚。

      • Blood Drinkers are a Blood Angels successor who suffer an even more extreme form of the Red Thirst from The Flaw; this is known to be caused by their Omophagea being even more mutated.

      • 饮血者是圣血天使的子战团,他们患有缺陷中更极端的血渴;众所周知,这是由于它们的基因侦测神经发生了更大的突变。

Multi-lung 第三肺

Phase 9: This additional lung activates when a Space Marine needs to breathe in low-oxygen or poisoned atmospheres. The natural lungs are closed off by a sphincter muscle associated with the multi-lung and the implanted organ takes over breathing operations. It has highly efficient toxin dispersal systems. The multi-lung even allows space marines to breathe water.

第9阶段:当星际战士需要在低氧或有毒环境中呼吸时,这个额外的肺会被激活。天然肺被与第三肺相关的括约肌封闭,植入的器官接管呼吸操作。它具有高效的毒素分散系统。第三肺甚至允许星际战士在水中呼吸。

Occulobe 视觉控制器官

Phase 10: This implant sits at the base of the brain, and provides hormonal and genetic stimuli which enable a Marine's eyes to respond to optic-therapy. This in turn allows the Apothecaries to make adjustments to the growth patterns of the eye and the light-receptive retinal cells - the result being that Space Marines have far superior vision to normal humans, and can see in low-light conditions almost as well as in daylight. The enhanced eyesight also allows Space Marines to clearly see targets at a distance of a couple of kilometres, making out enemy details with ease.

第10阶段:这种植入物位于大脑底部,提供激素和遗传刺激,使战士的眼睛能够对视觉治疗做出反应。这反过来又使药剂师能够调整眼睛和感光视网膜细胞的生长模式,结果是星际战士的视力远远优于正常人,在低光照条件下几乎能和白天一样看东西。增强的视力也使星际战士能够清楚地看到几公里外的目标,轻松地分辨出敌人的细节。

Lyman's Ear 莱曼之耳

Phase 11: Not only does this implant make a Space Marine immune to dizziness or motion sickness, it also allows Space Marines to consciously filter out and enhance certain sounds. To such an extent that a Marine is able to distinguish a human heartbeat from a kilometre away. The Lyman's Ear completely replaces a Marine's original ears. It is externally indistinguishable from a normal human ear.

第11阶段:这种植入物不仅使星际战士对头晕或晕动病免疫,还使星际战士能够有意识地过滤和增强某些声音。以至于一名战士能够区分一公里外的人的心跳。莱曼之耳完全取代了星际战士原来的耳朵。它在外观上与正常人的耳朵无法区分。

Sus-an Membrane 苏安脑膜

Phase 12: Initially implanted above the brain, this membrane eventually merges with the recipient's entire brain. Ineffective without follow-up chemical therapy and training, with sufficient training a Space Marine can use this implant to enter a state of suspended animation, consciously or as an automatic reaction to extreme trauma, keeping the Marine alive for years, even if he has suffered otherwise mortal wounds. Only the appropriate chemical therapy or auto-suggestion can revive a Marine from this state. The longest recorded period spent in suspended animation was undertaken by Brother Silas Err of the Dark Angels, who was revived after 567 years (d.321.M37)

第12阶段:最初植入大脑上方,这层膜最终与受体的整个大脑融合。即使没有后续的化学治疗和训练,只要经过足够的训练,星际战士也可以使用这种植入物进入假死状态,有意识地或作为对极端创伤的自动反应,使战士存活多年,即使他遭受了致命伤。只有适当的化学疗法或自我暗示才能使战士从这种状态中复活。有记录以来最长的假死时间是由黑暗天使的修士塞拉斯·厄尔完成的,他在567年后复活(d.321.M37)

This organ is also known as the hibernator implant.

这个器官也被称为沉眠器植入物。

Melanchromic Organ 色素控制器官

Phase 13: This implant controls the amount of melanin in a Marine's skin. Exposure to high levels of sunlight will result in the Marine's skin darkening to compensate. It also protects the Marine from other forms of radiation.

第13阶段:该植入物控制战士皮肤中的黑色素含量。暴露在高水平的阳光下会导致战士的皮肤变黑以进行补偿。它还保护战士免受其他形式的辐射。

Oolitic Kidney 卵石肾脏

Phase 14: In conjunction with the secondary heart this implant allows a Space Marine to filter his blood very quickly, rendering him immune to most poisons. This action comes at a price, however, as this emergency detoxification usually renders the Marine unconscious while his blood is circulated at high speed. The organ's everyday function is to monitor the entire circulatory system and allow other organs to function effectively.

第14阶段:与第二心脏结合,这种植入物使星际战士能够非常快速地过滤血液,使他对大多数毒素免疫。然而,这一行动是有代价的,因为这种紧急排毒通常会使战士在血液高速循环时失去意识。该器官的日常功能是监测整个循环系统,并使其他器官有效运作。

Neuroglottis 味觉监测神经

Phase 15: This enhances a Space Marine's sense of taste to such a high degree that he can identify many common chemicals by taste alone. A Marine can even track a target like a hound by taste or just sampling air. This also has the effect of enhancing the flavour of consumables such as wine.

第15阶段:这大大增强了星际战士的味觉,使他能够仅凭味觉识别许多常见的化学物质。战士甚至可以像猎犬一样通过味觉或只是采样空气来追踪目标。这也有增强果酒等消耗品风味的效果。

Mucranoid 汗腺改进器官

Phase 16: This implant allows a Space Marine to sweat a substance that coats the skin and offers resistance to extreme heat and cold and can even provide some protection for the marine in a vacuum. This can only be activated by outside treatment, and is common when Space Marines are expected to be fighting in vacuum.

第16阶段:这种植入物可以让星际战士分泌一种覆盖皮肤的物质,这种物质可以抵抗极端的冷热,甚至可以在真空中为战士提供一些保护。这只能通过外部处理激活,在星际战士预计在真空中作战时很常见。

Betcher's Gland 贝彻腺体

Phase 17: Consists of two identical glands, implanted either into the lower lip, alongside the salivary glands, or into the hard palate. The gland works in a similar way to the poison gland of venomous reptiles by synthesizing and storing deadly poison, which the Marines themselves are immune to. This allows a Space Marine to spit a blinding contact poison. The poison is also corrosive and can even burn away "strong" metals, given sufficient time.

第17阶段:由两个相同的腺体组成,植入下唇、唾液腺旁或硬腭。这种腺体的工作方式与有毒爬行动物的毒腺相似,通过合成和储存致命的毒素,而战士本身对这种毒素免疫。这使得星际战士能够吐出令人致盲的接触毒素。这种毒药也有腐蚀性,只要时间足够,甚至可以烧掉“坚固的”金属。

Progenoids 基因存收腺

Phase 18: There are two of these glands, one situated in the neck and the other within the chest cavity. These glands are vitally important and represent the future of the Chapter, as the only way new gene-seed can be produced is by reproducing it within the bodies of the Marines themselves. This is the implant's only purpose. The glands absorb genetic material from the other implanted organs. When they have matured, each gland will have developed a single gene-seed corresponding to each of the zygotes which have been implanted into the Marine.

第18阶段:有两个腺体,一个位于颈部,另一个位于胸腔内。这些腺体至关重要,代表着战团的未来,因为产生新基因种子的唯一方法是在战士体内繁殖。这是植入物的唯一目的。腺体从其他植入器官吸收遗传物质。当它们成熟时,每个腺体都会发育出一个与植入战士的每个合子相对应的单个基因种子。

Primaris Apothecary harvesting Progenoid Gland 原铸药剂师收割基因存收腺

These take time (5 years in the first case, 10 in the latter) to mature into gene-seed. The gene-seed can then be extracted and used to create more Space Marines. Thanks to the superior implantation process and genetic stability of Primaris Space Marines, the Imperium has recently been able to harvest gene-seed at a rate previously unseen.

这些需要时间(第一种情况为5年,第二种情况为10年)才能成熟为基因种子。然后可以提取基因种子并用于创建更多的星际战士。得益于原铸星际战士的卓越植入工艺和遗传稳定性,帝国最近能够以前所未有的速度收获基因种子。

Black Carapace 黑色甲壳

Phase 19: The most distinctive implant, it resembles a film of black plastic that is implanted directly beneath the skin of the Marine's torso in sheets. It hardens on the outside and sends invasive neural bundles into the Marine's body. After the organ has matured the recipient is then fitted with neural sensors and interface points cut into the carapace's surface. This allows a Space Marine to interface directly with his Power Armour. Without the Black Carapace many of the systems of the power armour will not function. While driving the vehicles of the Chapter, a special spinal interface plugged into the power armour and Black Carapace provides the Space Marine an intuitive 'feel' for vehicles systems and controls, literally making him a part of his vehicle. A similar cybernetic used by the Imperium of Man is the Mind Impulse Unit.

第19阶段:最独特的植入物,它类似于一层黑色塑料薄膜,直接植入战士躯干的皮肤下。它在外部变硬,并将侵入性神经束发送到战士的体内。器官成熟后,受体会被安装神经传感器,并在甲壳表面切割出接入点。这使得星际战士可以直接与他的动力盔甲进行交互。没有黑色甲壳,许多动力盔甲系统将无法运行。在驾驶战团的载具时,插入动力盔甲和黑色甲壳的特殊脊柱接口为星际战士提供了对载具系统和控制的直观“感觉”,使他成为载具的一部分。人类帝国使用的一种类似的智控是思维脉冲单元。

Marneus Calgar being implanted with the Black Carapace 马涅乌斯·卡尔加被植入黑色甲壳

The Black Carapace was originally developed during the Unification era by the Terran scientist Amar Astarte. However, it was flawed, and could not be utilized until Ezekiel Sedayne perfected the technology. Director Sedayne stated that this unusual part of the Astartes program required the carapace to be grafted in substantial pieces, as it couldn't be grown internally from seed germs, like some other organs. Once in place, it encourages the human body to adopt it as its own, and it spreads. It is an engineered, controlled cancer.

黑色甲壳最初是由人类科学家阿马尔·阿斯塔特在统一时代开发的。然而,它有缺陷,在以西结·赛丹完善这项技术之前无法使用。负责人赛丹表示,阿斯塔特项目的这一不同寻常的部分要求将甲壳以大块移植,因为它不能像其他一些器官一样从种子胚胎在内部生长。一旦到位,它就会刺激人体将其视为自己的,并伸展开来。它是一种工程化的、可控的似癌器官。

Insanguination 染血

Phase 20: Unique to the Blood Angels chapter, their neophytes drink something derived from their Chapter's gene-seed after the rest of the process, in a very involved process called Insanguination. See also Canis Helix, the Space Wolves equivalent which happens at the beginning.

第20阶段:圣血天使战团的独特之处在于,在剩下的过程中,他们的新进者会喝下来自该战团基因种子的东西,这是一个非常复杂的过程,称为染血。另请参阅狼之螺旋,这是太空野狼在开始时发生的类似事件。

Conditioning 调节

  • Chemical Treatment - Until his initiation, a Marine must submit to constant tests and examinations. The newly implanted organs must be monitored very carefully, imbalances corrected, and any sign of maldevelopment treated. This chemical treatment is reduced after completion of the initiation process, but it never ends. Marines undergo periodic treatment for the rest of their lives in order to maintain a stable metabolism. Marine power armour contains monitoring equipment and drug dispensers to aid in this.

  • 化学治疗 - 在开始之前,战士必须接受持续的测试和检查。必须非常仔细地监测新植入的器官,纠正不平衡,并治疗任何发育不良的迹象。在启动过程完成后,这种化学治疗会减少,但永远不会结束。战士在余生中会定期接受治疗,以保持稳定的新陈代谢。战士的动力盔甲包含监控设备和药物分配器,以帮助实现这一目标。

  • Hypnotherapy - As the super-enhanced body grows, the recipient must learn how to use his new abilities. Some of the implants, specifically the phase 6 and 10 implants, can only function once correct hypnotherapy has been administered. Hypnotherapy is not always as effective as chemical treatment, but it can have substantial results. If a Marine can be taught how to control his own metabolism, his dependence on drugs is lessened. The process is undertaken in a machine called a Hypnomat. Marines are placed in a state of hypnosis and subjected to visual and aural stimuli in order to awaken their minds to their unconscious metabolic processes.

  • 催眠疗法 - 随着超级增强身体的生长,接受者必须学会如何使用他的新能力。一些植入物,特别是6和10阶段的植入物,只有在进行了正确的催眠治疗后才能发挥作用。催眠疗法并不总是像化学治疗那样有效,但它可以产生实质性的效果。如果一名战士能够学会如何控制自己的新陈代谢,他对药物的依赖就会减少。该过程在一台名为催眠装置的机器中进行。战士被置于催眠状态,并受到视觉和听觉刺激,以唤醒他们对无意识代谢过程的意识。

  • Indoctrination - Just as their bodies receive 19-22 separate implants, so their minds are altered to release the latent powers within. These mental powers are, if anything, more extraordinary than even the physical powers described above. For example, a Marine can control his senses and nervous system to a remarkable degree, and can consequently endure pain that would kill an ordinary man. A Marine can also think and react at lightning speeds. Memory training is an important part of the indoctrination, too. Some Marines develop photographic memories. Obviously, Marines vary in intelligence as do other men, and their individual mental abilities vary in degree.

  • 灌输 - 就像他们的身体接受19-22个单独的植入物一样,他们的思想也会被改变,以释放内在的潜在力量。如果说有什么不同的话,这些精神力量甚至比上述身体力量更非凡。例如,一名战士可以在很大程度上控制自己的感官和神经系统,因此可以忍受杀死普通人的疼痛。战士还可以以闪电般的速度思考和反应。记忆训练也是灌输的重要组成部分。一些战士会发展出照相记忆。显然,战士和其他人一样,智力各不相同,他们的个人精神能力也各不相同。

  • Physical Training - Physical training stimulates the implants and allows them to be tested for effectiveness.

  • 体能训练 - 体能训练可以刺激植入物,并测试其有效性。

After all of these implants and alterations to the human body, there is a serious debate whether or not Space Marines are human. While they indubitably serve humanity, they are at least two meters tall and can breathe poison and eat through metal.

在对人体进行了所有这些植入和改造之后,对于星际战士是否是人类存在着一场激烈的争论。虽然他们无疑为人类服务,但他们至少有两米高,可以呼吸毒素,吞食金属。
