Deadeyes are so-called because they are expert marksmen and that one of their eyes has been enhanced in some form. These enhancements range from drugs that temporarily improve alertness, gene splicing to boost the receptiveness of their retinas and – the most extreme option – replacing entire eyeballs with bionic implants.
It is common for any Species to be a Deadeye, due to the sheer number of them employed by the military. As Humans outnumber the other species they are more common than Chimpanzees, Robots or Stishaks. Stishaks serve in the Earth military but can also be found on Earth spaceships as secondees from the Stishak army.
