Though technically, a Replica isn't the same thing as a clone. A Replica is essentially a living puppet, a blank physical form. It stays that way until a person's data is transferred into it; memory, appearance, physical abilities, basic personality traits... pretty much everything that's known about that person. Then the Replica copies them, taking on that person's form, abilities, and basic personality.
