Well, my humanoid character is not artificial, so I never considered him being born in a lab as some mad scientist's experiment or something.
Basically, my character--Lumin Escintz--is...well, how could I put this? He's a winged humanoid dragon. Essentially, he hails from a planet where evolution took a decidedly very different direction over the billions and billions of years since the dinosaurs never died out. He doesn't have horns, and while he CAN breathe fire in the classical dragon sense, he still carries more "conventional" weaponry (for that time period) for instances open flame would be more than a little counterproductive. Also, while he DOES have wings and uses them to fly, he does own a star-ship/space ship of his own (for interstellar/interplanetary travel).
As it is, the setting usually changes from roleplay to roleplay. Lumin is a space fairer, but he's a sort of a cross-combination between a bounty hunter and an interstellar law enforcer and USUALLY the only real reason he would be in any environment outside of general pleasure or relaxation is because he was given a mission or an assignment to head out to the location in question.
ANYWAY, the general roleplay idea for a Future Fantasy is thus:
Long ago, the twisted Professor Savage was arrested, tried, and found guilty long ago for building bioweapons (which could include your generalization of other humanoid creations of proving his mastermind intelligence) and otherwise generally violating the terms of the Intergalactic Terran Peace Treaty of 25XX. The professor, deemed a madman due to his twisted and vile experiments on lifeforms both plant and animals based, was beginning to conduct research on live beings when the IBI (Interstellar Bureau of Investigation) bust in to catch him redhanded.
Long story short, Professor Savage's research was forcibly destroyed by the government and the Professor himself was exiled to a barren wasteland of a planet, filled with little food or water for him to spend the rest of his days on without access to a laboratory or any basic essentials.
At least, that was the plan. Ten years later since his exile, and the Interstellar Federation (ISF) has received some strange signals coming from the planet that Savage had been exiled to. Knowing that no signal ever existed from the planet beforehand, the ISF is more than a little concerned about this strange activity and dispatched a couple of investigators to check into the situation. Contact was lost with them a day after they arrived on planet and no word had been heard from them since, but they were able to send word that--somehow, inexplicably, the once barren and deathly wasteland has been partially terraformed into an equally deadly jungle environment just before word was lost.
Three weeks since the disappearance of the two investigators, the ISF has decided that Prof. Savage is behind it as well as the strange activity coming from the planet. To that end, they are sending an entire strike commando to descend down to the planet to locate, capture, and bring Prof. Savage to them so he can answer for these enigmas...and answer to justice if need be.
At the same time however, Lumin was sent by his agency with a similar agenda in mind. Only, instead his orders are to eliminate Savage, rather than capture him.
Of course, we don't have to go with this idea--we could go with something completely different.
