Are all agents Capsuleers?

I did a Rclick > Show Info on a few agents, then enlarged their portrait and clicked "full body" view on an agent. They all had the metal capsule "plugs" on the back of their spine just like my character does.

Does that mean they are all capsuleers? I thought we were the chosen ones?!! I feel lied to.

Simpler just to use one model for the game.

The two women who were Agents in the books were not eggheads

Well, I don't know about the agents but in the level 1 SoE arc mission - A Call to Trial - according to the agent, the target NPC has clone access :

Quote:
I want you to go out there, meet Taphos, and kill him in combat. We've shut off access to his clones, so he won't be coming back. As you were challenged by a noble you'll suffer no consequences, legal or otherwise. His family line gets to keep their good name, and everyone can then go back to their nice, safe lives, confident that Imperial secrets are still safe.

There are millions of NPC capsuleers out there. Each Empires Navys are full of them.

Those agents haven't aged a day in ten years, which suggests that they are, in fact, immortal capsuleers.

I got the impression from one of the books (the second one??) that there were normal corporation agents that were "normals"...

Actually the navies have little to no capsuleers in them.
