Clone

Cloning is the process of producing individuals with identical or virtually identical DNA, either naturally or artificially. In nature, many organisms produce clones through asexual reproduction. Cloning in biotechnology refers to the process of creating clones of organisms or copies of cells or DNA fragments

In the future world of Taimanin human cloning is possible however, mostly for secret military purposes. Combined with the use of growth hormones and insertion of memories, those clones can even to themselves act and feel identical and be used as soldiers and slaves.

History
The Chinese Union is the leading faction in the field of genetics and cloning. Creating clones of strong people and inserting different memories, to control them as soldiers. Groups like Ryuumon that worked indirectly for the Union also used and researched clones in the past, most known Oboro (Clone) which they appointed a leader position as well. Ryuumon also gained access to Dark World technologies that combined with their "Human Crystallization Technology", was able to speed up cloning from months into a few days.

After the temporary capture of Igawa Asagi they also created an Asagi (Clone), which was simply used as a prostitute.

The Chinese Union would later create a line of Asagi (Clone)'s as soldiers but some were captured by other factions and modified by cybernetics. Currently there is only one clone Asagi left. However, was also killed by the real Igawa Asagi.

In the bad ending of Taimanin Asagi 2, Nomad and Oboro take over Ryuumon. Turning Oboro (Clone), Igawa Sakura and Igawa Asagi to slaves. Nomad also creates clones of the sisters and Yatsu Kuro, which then are ordered to lead more Taimanin into a trap and replace them systematically with clones.

In Taimanin Asagi 3 cloned cells of Edwin Black are used in the creation of High Ghouls.

Powers/Abilities
Identical to their original in most cases.

Limitation
Though the creation of clones as weapons shows promise, specially Taimanin are less useful. Clones do not inherent the Ninja Arts of Taimanin, and are also not able to use the Inner Demon transformation. Making them weaker unless modified with additional cybernetics or magic items. Clones made from demons seem to be more useful but also show that they are far less effective.
