SIVA is a Golden Age nanotechnology characterized by self-replication and self-assembly.[1]
History[edit | edit source]
At some point, the Clovis Bray company began research into the technology that would become SIVA. Apparently, it was meant for use by deep-space colonists,[2] but military branches were involved as well.[3] While Willa Bray did intend for it to be used in space exploration, specifically the Exodus program, they did not intend it to be used by the military.[4]
About a hundred years before the events of Destiny, SIVA posed a serious threat to Humanity. The Iron Lords sacrificed themselves, containing SIVA and saving Humanity.[5]
Eventually, the Fallen House of Devils unearthed the threat in Old Russia, and their Splicers used it to augment themselves and become more powerful.[1][5]
