Yeah, Timmy's Tear. They can be used only once.

And no, I don't think his brain exists as any template. Son's are more about using his and other's DNA to form potential. Brain scanning isn't used on player characters. Besides making actual template from Jim's brain would be betraying SC. He wasn't thrilled about potential use of Jim's brain after he quit.

Again, that's how have understood things. And cloning takes far lot time than you have.

Hmm, well this is what Radio posted:

"The ‘hardware’ for these agents consist of clones of ARM personnel. If needed, a blending of two or more templates will be used to get optimal configuration of traits. Note that this could lead to instability, meaning the screening process is all the more important.
Templates used:
Jim: EXO and willpower
Milno: CON and survival
Miyamoto: UNCON and tactical/strategic thinking
Simus: technical skills
Charles (empiricist): charisma and speech"

That suggests to me that brain templates are available.  Whether using them would be betraying anyone or not, I don't know.  Plus when I asked Radio if "brain templates are available?" he said "yes."

Also, I think the CSU wishing orb could be used multiple times (remember that it didn't crack or disappear after NJW used it?)  I think it is a separate artifact from Timmy's Tears.  And we can pump out sods each turn, so I don't know why we couldn't pump out a Jim a few times.

Edit:  umm.... nevermind.....

Sinking feeling I made a, uh, awful decision.  Like a bunch.  Well, should be interesting at least.

...What? This whole time I could have outsourced propaganda to some horrible ghostship-esque entity comprised entirely of networked Charles-Tenplate brains and no one told me? :P

I suppose it's for the best we never had a Sleazeship that just flied around spamming seduction rolls on entire planets or something.

What, Elizas+Charles?

Probably a good thing TCM didn't know that would be possible.

I say we use a Maurice-Charles Template to create ships that we fire at eldritch gods in the hope of one will eventually succeed in having something more substantial than a mere one-night stand :P

I'll respond to some specific Hep things in the Hep ooc, unless people  prefer to do things in here.

Guys you still Have Maurice.
Nikitian would want us to involve him in something dangerous and stupid like this. Probably.

Maurice kiiinda has a track record of not dealing well with alien entities though. But if we ever need a volunteer for pelvic thrusting at the xeno gods he'll be the first in line, no doubt  :P

I wonder what shape such a ship would have... A prolate spheroid perhaps.

So tempted to ask for m26 people to do
 447, 261, 636
54,68,65
41,66,74

Also if you can figure out what those string of numbers mean, I will be happy and impressed in your knowledge.

I'm not opposed, though I haven't bothered to try to find out about the numbers.

But we are just a taaaaaaaaad, just a smidgen, just a weeee little bit occupied at the moment.

What with the unstoppable Eldritch Horror eating the system "at relativistic speeds."

I had one more area planned for this mission but...I feel like people are getting bored.

Shall we wrap it up and go for something alien and then the last mission?

I'm up for whatever (not on an evac team anyway), but doesn't the Hep situation need to be resolved before we go on a new mission, since the outcome of that would influence what we do next?
