Replicant (Earth: Final Conflict)
The Replicant is a robot that features in Earth: Final Conflict.
History
The fascimile of Rayna later abandoned the resistance headquarters during the events that led to the birth of the Human-Kimera hybrid called Liam Kincaid. The alien probe knocked out its guard escort and headed towards the Pentagon Alexandria base in order to tap into the communication system. Initially, it was barred from entering by a human guard to which the probe attempted to discern whether the planet wide jamming by the Taelon's was still in effect to which the security officer confirmed. Whilst attempting to move into the central computer, the human guard attempted to block the probes path which swiftly strangled him and dispatched him. After entering into the computers, it accessed and realigned the communication array whereupon it tapped directly into the system through a data probe beam emitted from its eyes. Its activities allowed it to beam a transmission into deep space and thus managed to penetrate the Taelon jamming allowing it to connect to its Jaridian masters. When a human military contingent arrived to discover what the commotion was, they discovered the probe had rearranged its body into its initial form. As the military officers arrived, the probe rearranged its body into a militant form which quickly dispatched the soldiers after which it began a planet wide database search for Taelon targets around the Earth.
Once its targets were located, the Replicant cloaked and began a search mode where it moved in secret to find its targets. Locating a funeral service for the Companion Protector known as William Boone and targeted a trio of Taelons present. Before it struck, a disguised Liam Kincaid quickly moved to save Da'an's life. However, the leader of the Taelon Synod was killed by the Replicant and despite being attacked by Ronald Sandoval, the Jaridian Replicant managed to escape. The death of a Taelon caused some shock to the Earth community and Zo'or refused to allow any Taelon on Earth until the Replicant was destroyed. [S2: The First of its Kind]
Background
In its natural form, the Replicant took on the shape of a large probe which was crystalline in shape. It was capable of altering this body allowing it to take on the appearance of a human allowing it to masquerade as its target species making it an excellent infiltrator. They were also on the watch for targets that would allow it to gain closer access to its target by masquerading as a targets comrade or ally. Though it appeared human, it was far stronger and easily able to overpower humans in physical confrontations. In addition to this, it was able to alter its structure allowing it to cloak and hide in its surroundings giving it an excellent covert ability. When engaged in its military programming, the probe took on a more aggressive form which consisted of a large humanoid form consisted of the green crystalline structure. During combat situations, it was capable of transforming parts of its arms into weapon limbs allowing it to direct energy weapons against targets. These energy blasts were equally capable of killing both organic beings like humans and energy beings such as the Taelons.
The programming and intelligence of the Replicant was highly adaptive and single minded in its goals. In its infiltrator mode, it was capable of interacting with a target species. It was also capable of gathering data on targets and locating priority targets. The probes often also attempted to find a central communication grid and interface with it. This first took on physical manual interface such as typing on the computer keyboard but as the process reached its end, it was capable of remote access to the system through a data energy probe that emitted from its eyes. The highly advanced capabilities of the probe allowed it to easily overpower and penetrate planet wide jamming fields erected by the Taelons by accessing a target civilizations communication system. Furthermore, the Replicants possessed an extensive database and HUD system which it accessed as part of its operational directives. It was capable of using compiled data to locate targets around the globe and also discern the capabilities of threatening opponents. [S2: The First of its Kind]
