Cloning vat

Each cylinder can hold one clone. Clones can be grown at regular rates (taking a full 20-30 years to mature, just like a normal person) or faster. Speeding up the process can be dangerous without close supervision, leading to deformed or insane clones. Spaarti cylinders have "growth" dice of 5D. Growing a clone is normally a very easy task, producing an adult body that is stable and ready for training, skill-imprinting or the occasional soul transfer. However, would-be Clone Masters often do not want to wait a lifetime. Clones may be grown in less time by subtracting 1D for every six years and increasing the difficulty to moderate. The absolute minimum time is one day for every two years of physical age. Extra growth dice may be added by using extra-rich nutrient solutions (which increase the cost still further) or by adding dice from an attending person or droid with the (A) medicine skill, up to a maximum of 3D. Ysalamiri add another 3D for purposes of stability.
