I can clone people with the Deathcube, apparently. For a nominal fee, you can clone yourself, and keep your clone on-ship! If you die, you've still gots a clone!
What? When'd you figure that out?

And, yeah. You know anything about the clones? Mindless meat puppets, hideous flesheating dopplegangers, convinced they're the original, what?

Dunno! Mine was an exact replica of me, so I'm assuming it's whatever the current state of "you" is. I'm full fleshy, though, so there's a chance it could be messy with robos or augmented people. Though, y'know, I can't see myself charging you if it isn't useful.

Irony: Today! And all I know is it appears to be an exact replica of me, and I had control over both of 'em. I think I might also be able to do the Cthulkan (spelling?) treatment with 2 individuals as well, though I have no idea who would want it. I'll be touching up the document tomorrow.

Wow, neat. And bizarre. I mean, we have known for a long time that the Deathcube is ridiculously powerful, if... well, let's just say the odds of -1 Hapah was probably higher than the odds of +1 Hapah.

Still, looking forward to how this develops.

There's got to be some kind of catch...

Does this mean I could commission a mob of small clones of my character? Or maybe a big clone?

Important question: do the clones "share" memories, or are their memories completely seperate? For example, if Clone A went on mission and Clone B didn't, would Clone B know what was happening in the mission, or would they only know what was happening on ship?

We've been able to clone people (and their brain) forever, but pw always said no for game balance reasons. So either there's a catch, or he's throwing the pretense of balance to the wind, in which case, all bets are off!

Kill the clone. Or the original. Then see what happens.

Perhaps any damage happening to 1 will quantum tunnel to the clone as well. That'd be hilarious.

Or perhaps the clone is only a mindless drone?

Or that all it does is split a person's "soul" across multiple bodies, meaning that the death of one destabilizes those that remain.

Well, I certainly remember Piecewise once mentioning that replicating artifacts with Deathcube is possible. Looks like you've found that combination!

(...Well, maybe using it will decrease the chances of ... displacing things during artifact research, you know? Gen. Miya should look into it.)

This is very easily tested. Someone go and shoot him/it.
