View source for Clones of Demeter


=== Overview ===
The clones of [[Demeter]] are vat-grown, artificially created biological humanoids. Sometimes referred to as demi-gods, they are created from a template which is improved in iterations, called Marks. There are currently three Marks in common usage, with the fourth being reserved for special cases.

The Clones are birthed dully formed with implanted information and memories, using a secret process known only to the Lady Demeter. Along with the artificially implanted memories and knowledge, Clones are also augmented with electrical aids; such as implants to improve labour, higher logic reasoning as in the Mark Four, or other unspecified upgrades.

Despite the upgrades, Clones are specifically biological life, in accordance with [[Zeus|Lord Zeus]]'s edict on the creation of artificial intelligence.

When a Clone is killed, they are returned to the estate of Demeter to be used as fertilizer, in order to further the growth of crops.

=== The Marks ===

==== Mark One ====
Mark Ones are not seen regularly, as they were cycled out of production by the time of Persephone. However, descriptions indicate they were not as advanced as their later siblings, at one point conversing with a Mark One was described by a Mark Three as '''A fiber'' ''optic cable talking to a bundle of coppe''r'.

==== Mark Two ====
The most common Mark on the market, the Mark Two are primarily used in a servile role, or as common labour. Mark Two's were also known to possess exceptional abilities with plant-life, sometimes shown to be able to conjure or create flowers from their bodies.

==== Mark Three ====
Mark Threes are used in a combat capacity, used as either security or bodyguards for the chosen elite. One Mark Three, [[Adrastus]], is the former pilot for [[Anesidora|Lady Demeter's Eidolon]], having been raised from birth for said role.

Adrastus, unlike previous Marks, was birthed from the vat as a child, raised using human methods rather than the implanted memories of his siblings.

==== Mark Four ====
The Mark four currently consists only of the [[Persephone|Lady Persephone]], the first of her template. Not only does she have a physical prowess greater than the previous marks, but she has shown a vast suite of cyber-warfare implants that allow her unfettered control of [[Elysium]]'s systems. This allows her to be a skilled Eidolon pilot, and a skilled tactician.

She is currently in the employ of [[Hades|Lord Hades]].
