Terra II Clones

Terra II is home to an all male race of human clones who‘s progenitors were stranded on it for over three hundred years.

Biology
The clones resemble normal human males and live just as long as one too. The clones DNA have been randomized enough to allow a variety of appearances however the clones all follow their respective progenitor’s  phenotype. This means those from Gartland will always resemble Germans, Japoness clones will look Japanese and etc etc. Terra II clones still have the ability to reproduce successfully even with clone females.

Society
There are seven nations across Terra II each with their own culture and government. Every one of the leaders of each nation always resemble their progenitor and have their own way of keeping their knowledge intact. Gartland saves the first and every other Faust’s memory’s and personality digitally and implant them inside each new Faust clone while Japoness Ieasu keeps the memory of previous lives around through visuals such as a painting. Governments of each nation are widely different than one another. For example Gartland is a militaristic Autocracy ruled by a hereditary Fuhrer, Japoness is ruled by an all powerful shogun with supportive city territories and New Texas is governed by a President. Civilian life in these respective nations are widely different. Gartland citizens are often oppressed and most of the time starving, Japoness residents are free but tend shun ideas such as romantic marionette relationships. Gay and marionette relationships are not unheard of but are rare.

History
All clones derived from the original 7 male survivors of the AI take over of the colony ship, Mesopotamia. Stranded on Terra II with no hope of escape, the survivors began building an underground shelter to protect themselves from the planet’s deadly plasma storms. It was there that they developed and expanded on cloning technologies and advance robotics. After their widespread cloning program became successful, three of the men, Faust, Ieyasu, and George used their advanced robotics skills to create the marionettes, life like Androids resembling human women, in a effort to memorialized the female form. These robots were not given free will and only did what they were told to do hence their name. Unbeknownst to the other men and eventually nations of men, the three created several Ai cores based on the overall personality of the only female survivor still stuck on the Mesopotamia, Lorilie. These Ai cores were intended to mature into a lorilie-like personality that the Mesopotamia’s Ai would accept as a better lover than the human lorilie, who was held captive aboard the ship. The New Texas Ai core wasn’t originally planned for the rescue mission but instead designed to become a controller unit for a device that had the ability to control plasma storms. Due to a falling out between Ieyasu and Faust, Three Marionette cores were scattered and hidden in a effort to hinder Faust. Later clone generations of the two would use the cores to free Lorelei.
