No, being an informorph won't save you. Your brain state scan will all feature plagues and spongiform physiology.

Wouldn't things considered foreign not get scanned? A prion's not a mutation or anything, its like a worm or something right? Or a mass of protein? Either way it wouldn't be gray matter, thus wouldn't scan right? I paid one of my classmates to do my biology homework in school, it just doesn't seem right to me that it would scan.


The issue is that the during the brain scan, your neural connections and last brain activity are converted into data. Prions, by their neuron-degrading nature, will affect your brain scan. While you can halt the progression of the disease by transferring data to a new clone, the already damaged brain function remains the same, so even with the absence of the disease in your new clone, you will act as though you had already been infected.

A Minmatar warship is like a rusting Beetle with 500 horsepower Cardillac engines in the rear, armour plating bolted to chassis and a M2 Browning stuck on top.

Ooh, so your saying it won't transfer, the damage is done anyways from before. Ya, that makes sense.

I didn't say I thought you did, I'm just a little surprised it is hypothetically possible.

On that note, if your previous clone had dementia, your current clone will still exhibit symptoms of dementia.

On other hand, if you had multiple sclerosis, your new clone will be sclerosis-free. Brain-scan does not carry data on the state of your neuron's myelin sheath.

What in gods name do you need some many for?

What fills the soul? Something that guides a lost child back to it's parents arms. Or waves that dye the shores of the heart gold. A blessed breath to nurture life in a land of wheat. Or the path the Sef descend drawn in ash. In the wake of fire.

Is that a lot, when Templars go into combat with 10 clones ready in their orbital carrier? Each one needs equipment, after all.

I suppose not to a certain extent. I could understand the large scale purchase if Anslo we're a cloned soldier though to my knowledge he isn't one himself. If he wanted to however he could supply such a soldier for a fair amount of time with a bulk order like that.

It's for his platoon of midget commandos. He plans on sending them after Mittani, in an attempt to usurp his position and gain control of the Goonswarm Federation. What he doesn't know is that Mittani has an army of one legged monkeys ready to foil his plans.

A little trust goes a long way. The less you use, the further you'll go.

The one legged monkeys are Mittens personal guard.... also known as space monkeys, they have their own alliance.

Well it's ... uhh, I mean ... like, well, anything dangerous it's alright if you know how to handle it.

At least that's how it looks, I mean .... err, on my holo-henta ..uhhh, animes.

Anyway, I think I'll just keep walking now.
