Don't you judge me.

o...k... well this does lead to the next question of clearly one your immortal you dont really care about having kids

Judged.

What? If some chick who has never even seen an immortal before suddenly wants to show her appreciation for saving her planet from being glassed, who am I to say no?

If anything, it would be rude to refuse the offer.

I assume if you put together the scratch you could buy yourself a clone body with all the bits and pieces fully functional when you have a mind to retire. Might be a little tricky and expensive to get set up in a new permanent body, but if you got the money there's no way you're gonna be told no.

In theory, seems little reason for giving one's progeny an implant isn't impossible, but the ethical concerns do give one pause and I'm not too sure about the market for clone babies. Constantly dying aside, I imagine that there's little to differentiate the toll of an immortal mercenary parent would take compared to any other parent who is often away on business.

Granted, my perspective could mean I am mad as a hatter.

Suffice to say that I would highly recommend waiting till you are gonna retire before having kids, whether natural born or adopted or whatever. However, that's not a bad thing. Getting to enjoy the family life is something to fight for no matter how crazy the battles, labyrinthine the intrigue, or traumatizing the constant death.

Would save on diaper changes. "Hmm think the baby needs changing" pulls out pistol...

NOTE in no way does this merc promote or condone immortal infanticide just leaving it out there as an option thats all.

We have eternal life!
And eternal child support bills...

Ha just hit and run Galm?

I prefer the term bang and bail.

That was a joke.





Mostly.

And if they do are they kids like implanted right away. I mean having parents that have died like 1000 times cant lead to a healthly. Childhood

Thing is when doing this you would need to spend 9 months in the custom clone to manage that bodies systems.

Mortals call that 'Maternity Leave'

Anyway, I believe in having children the proper way: By accident, after a night of drinking and exercise with a pair of athletic Gallentean women.

EDIT@Medic 1879: Would our implants even work on kids? I suppose it's a comforting thought that any children we have could be forced to learn first-hand how the mortals live. Reminds me of an old story from Ancient Earth.

Do... Do we even have the proper organs to reproduce?

I wouldn't know, I still haven't gotten my armour off. And on that note, are we even designed to feel an emotion like love or something? I mean occasionally I'll see a bunch of clones checking out the only female on the War Barge, but I don't really think that counts.

That's like. Primal or something.

None of you have bothered to actually look under the dropsuit? It's like a childs doll down there. And not one of the educational ones.

I suppose you could custom order one with all the kibbles and bits, but at that point wouldn't it be easier to just make a new clone and set some of the features to random?

I wouldn't be so sure, the female clones certainly seem nicely endowed I the upper-regions
However the manufacturers do seem to be steering towards less of a gender gap between clone bodies, I remember when earlier female clones were so sexualized it made it hard for users to walk properly.
Plus the breast reduction can only have improved combat efficiency (for both genders hehe)

I'm having a hard time imagining a Pregnant clone or combat clones with working genitals. However I'm certain that with enough isk we could buy a body that could reproduce. Baby would be scary as **** when it grew up though. It came from a body that wasn't technically alive if it came from a clone...

I'm struggling to understand what you mean. The body is not alive? How do you figure that. As soon as the consciousness is in the clone, that clone body is alive.

I was under the Impression that we are not infact in our bodies. That our consciousness was actually downloaded into a large number of super computers or into the communications networks. Sure the individual cells may be alive, but the "life" the body is experiencing is just it being remote controlled by a digital consciousness.

That's my take on the subject at least.

On a side note, it does raise a question: Were our individual clones alive before implants were applied? Or were they somehow grown while brain-dead?
