Valgav Simulcra tend to be ageless and don't have the genetic failings inherent in most humonculi. Further, you can often engineer a personality or set of morals for it rather than it developing into a troubling persona of it's own. Further, simulcra make a decent recepticle for disembodied entities. They're like golem plus. True, true. But I prefer flawed beings for the same reason I really, really, really dislike Superman- the more perfect something is, the more stagnant. Troubling personas are more interesting in literature than stable personalities...Sylvia Plath, say, or Tolstoy, contributed a bit more to culture than, say, Norman Rockwell. Not to put down the Rockmeister, but.... Just not the same league. And if Star Trek has taught me anything, it's not to trust the disembodied.

I'm thinking maybe "Effigies". But they're made in Jars, like Homunculi. Or... Actually... *has a better idea* Must think about this. >>;

Confusion! Guess that it originates in RO?
But seriously. I'd love some input, y'all. <3
Additional idea: breedable clergymen! All the way from layperson to pope, with customizable vestments.

Joseph Severn Yes, clearly an intelligent, experienced person with artistic leanings wouldn't be the one to ask? razz My artistic 'expertise' doesn't really cover what works in breedables D: Hell, most of what goes on in there defies all logic!! Clergymen = pederasty You'd have to give them buyable playmates twisted

Will there be Playsets too?
Church + Rectory...
You could even set up a map with varying towns/regions. Each region has percentages of varying denomination parishoners, which determines the population of each church of that denomination within that region.
Churches with better population have more income, thus the clergyman has a "better lifestyle."
The Bishop for the Region would, of course, go to the Clergyman whose person paid you the most money for the position. Perks of being Bishop mean better "accessories" for your clergyman, a better Church (cathedral?) and more altarboys.
As more and more people sign up, you could develop other regions and determine a papacy.
And of course, it'd be as corrupt as you could possibly make it. xd

I was thinking of them as assistants. Simulcrum are generally very exact in their natures. An erratic assistant is annoying to their master at the very least.
Breedable clergy is an oxymoron.
Also: Hehe... rectory.... hehehe

Oxymoron? Or Oxygenius? If they're corrupt clergymen, which they will be, they could totally breed. <3 Also, Rayi, yes, you get a cut. I also have some new wrinkles to include. 3nodding
Assistants, eh? Well...maybe. But we're selling pets. Pets are always erratic.

Valgav Also: Hehe... rectory.... hehehe *ahem* Rayinte Meoshira Rayinte Meoshira Ooooh, if Puu's ancient, then she must teach me her wisdom. domokun Naw, she kept her beauty, that means she didn't get the wisdom. I got the wisdom, I'm one of the wisest people you'll ever meet. Well. My a** is, at least. xd Oooh, so Rayinte's a** would be the wisest of them all. I SAY BUILD IT A SHRINE! Or better yet, a temple. heart Naw, naw, a CATHEDRAL. With flying buttresses and stained gl a** windows. Rayinte Oh, and up on the altar is where my respectful worshippers place their tithes, those who fail to deposit their booty shall receive a visit from my assassins! And I live behind the Cathedral in the Rectum... er. Rectory.

Corrupt or not, unless there are some altar girls, it's still an oxymoron XD Or maybe some of the altar boys are girls? Catholic/christian yentel?
