For a while now I've been thinking about how I'm going to be staffing such a large installation as The Roughrider base on 36 Atalante. Intitially, I
had been inspired by Dee, one of the AIs of the VVS. While the idea had merit, I didn't want to look like I was carbon-copying the idea. Then, I thought,
"What if it was a biomod?" After all, with handwavium, nearly anything is possible...
Jess was a girl that despised being part of a wealthy family living along the Golden Coast. Sure, the vacations were fantastic and she did love her parents
very much, but the lifestyle just was not her speed.
Like many fen, Jess loved anime and especially loved to cosplay as Rei Ayanami of Neon Genesis Evangelion. When she got the first chance, she handwaved her
car, a surprisingly mundane Dodge Neon, and high-tailed it to Kandor. One she was in the company of the fen, she began to experiment with Handwavium as an
occupation and cosplay as a hobby, with Rei still being her perinial favorite.
Eventually, she began an experiment to create a new strain of handwavium - one that would enable the mass-production of bio-androids to provide staff for large
operations. At one point in the process, she forgot she was supposed to be at a cosplay competition and was going as... You guessed it, Rei Ayanami, and she
pulled out all the stops this time. Of course, Murphy's Law states that anything that can go wrong will go wrong. Some sloppy house-keeping had been the
cause of the mis-step that landed her in the vat full of her experimental handwavium. With no one around to provide assistance, the Handwavium was left to its
own devices and the next day, Jess woke up nearly smothered in... Herself?
The Handwavium had done more or less as she thought it would and when provided with a single model that it saw as unfinished, perfected it and made as many
copies as it could (the handwavium strain came with all the basic chemical building blocks that was needed). In short, Jessica had one-hundered copies of
herself as Rei Ayanami.
Confusion came quick as the copies of herself did everything that she did. Since the handwavium had Rei as a template, all the copies were tied together in
some hither-to-unknown form of telepathy. As she tried to sort -that- out, she soon discovered that the temporary hair die and contact lenses were no longer
temporary.
It took a few weeks and the help of many, both from professionals and from her friends, before she got herself sorted out. Seeing the dangerous nature of such
a handwavium strain, she discontinued her research into the matter and focused instead on providing her services as temporary staffing. However, once
Operation: Great Justice got underway, she soon decided that her abilities would be best put to use among one of the Factions better suited against the
Boskonian Threat, but lacking in manpower for their facilities. It didn't take long for her to leanr about the Roughriders as Benjamin had come to Kandor
to recruit in person.

Biomod: 101 "Rei Clones''
Quirks:
- Teamwork among a group of clones is best achieved when they're wearing a uniform of any sort, but for absolute top performance a
'plug suit' or a Japanese school uniform is best suited.
- Intense physical and emotional reactions can disrupt her multitasking capabilities. Needless to say that certain nocturnal activities have
caused some remarkable disruptions on the job.
- Capable of AI-like processing capabilities by using all the available processing power of her 'clones.'
- In order to keep medical records of the clones, they're all numbered from zero to one-hundred.
- Serves as The Roughriders' Honor Guard with coordination that rivals the US Marine Corp's Silent Drill Platoon.
