I know that the simulacra are not "real", but as I understand it they respond to their surroundings in almost all ways as the real thing.
For example, I would expect one to show up as real to almost all high tech scanning, blood typing, retina scan, X-ray, etc. It depends how much detail there is, as DNA scanning is being proposed for high tech security, and quite likely exists on Warriors World. If a simulcrum can 'spoof' DNA scans, then a full genescan is just more detail. Note the blood that stayed on Nene's hardsuit while the simulcrum remained running. And, if the powers come from the genes, plus appropriate training...
I would suspect that quite a lot of the information that makes up a simulacrum comes from the principle of magical similarity, as I doubt that Doug holds more information than a 'hook' on the bodies of the Warriors. It is made quite clear, though, that their minds are based on his knowledge of that person, and can't have anything in them that he doesn't know.
Not withstanding that, if you could take a snapshot 'holographic' mind scan of one of his simulacra, and could load that into a cloned body from a pirated genescan of such, you have loads of fun new ethical issues to play with! [grin]
Don't you have lots of fun when you consider the interactions of really high tech and high grade magic? [grin]
