Bob, what's your clone theory? Why did clones die with the first lives of Gfish, TBB, and you? (Anti-Gangles doesn't count because he was viable enough to be an actual character with a character duo.) Is Dani more likely to be residing with a town or mafia player?

I think this "clones are shells" theory is just a shell game.
(sorry. probably deserved to be lynched for that.)
But honestly I think clones are mostly there to throw FUD into the game. Which they've done beautifully. I think focusing on them is a detriment to town.
____ Hellspawn followed the narrow sewer system through a series of nooks and openings, before he found a shining light above him.
____ He crawled up the maintenance tunnel and dissolved through some cracks in a manhole.
____ He reassembled and discovered that he was in a small market in Starosha.
____ He needed to get back to Gai and tell his friends the information he had learned about the imposter King.
____ Maybe there was a boat...or...wait, why was that guy looking at him?
____ A man in some old grey robes approached the demon.
____ "Hellspawn I take it? I have a message for you.."
____ "How did you find us?
____ We were quick and quiet.
____ If you want to attack,
____ then come on, just try it."
____ The beggar shook his head. "No attacking. By now you have learned about the clones. You know that it's possible. Imperfect you say? Yes. Those designed by The Pig were imperfect, but those designed by Dark Beastman such as Anti-Gangles? They were special."
____ "Is there a clone of us out there-"
____ "No. Only The Endless, and last I checked you were not one of them. Just Gangles, Dani Carlyle, Afterthought, Dreamwalker and Blind Justice. You and Jackal were already unaging. And I wasn't about to give any of my essence to one of the Old Gods, AKA Jackal, or a demon like yourself."
____ "You seem to know a lot about this-"
____ "I'm here to offer you a deal."
____ Hellspawn surveyed the poor beggar in front of him. His eyes were not focused, and his body hung slightly like it was a marionette. One of his eyes glowed.
____ The demon waved his hand to continue.
____ "Join us. You don't owe this world anything, and I can make you something more in the new world. An Archangel. In return, I can give you the thing you want most in the world; Lock N' Load. A clone, sure, but a perfect clone."
____ "Lock...?"

The Mouth
____ Red, Lamplighter and Nightblue landed upon the rocky wasteland below, where the area of The Mouth sat under the Sky Fortress.
____ "We need to go back for Varuna!" Said Lamplighter, as the heat started to rise over his body. He wasn't going to lose anyone else! This was The Justice League, how were they being swatted down like flies?
____ "The hell you're not!" Said Red. "Did you not see what happened? Gangles died. He's dead! Fvcking dead, you fiery turd. Not only was Gangles was one of my oldest friends, but he was the last of The Endless. Do you understand what that means? Because I sure as hell don't, but it's not good for us. We couldn't beat them when we were whole. We won't beat them now."
____ The heat in Lamplighter's face started to intensify. "Listen to yourself! Are you quitting? Are you just going to abandon Varuna to those monsters? We are heroes, dammit."
____ "He's already gone!"
____ Behind them, Nightblue started to moan out in pain. He clutched at his stomach as his blue cloak brushed against the ground.
____ "Hey man, are you alright? Did you get stabbed or something?"
____ "Nien! My stomach...hurts so much..."
____ His cries grew louder, while Red and Lamplighter stood around puzzled and worried.
____ "I think I swallowed ze bug..."
____ In a sudden display of blood and flesh, Nightblue's stomach exploded outwards.
____ A blue falcon emerged from the young man, flew out, then flew back in.
____ This time, Nightblue's entire body was completely ripped apart as Dark Beastman took the form of a gorilla.
____ With nothing left to hold it, the blue cloak fell onto the shoulders of the bloody blue gorilla.
____ "Holy fvck!" Screamed Red. She blasted the gorilla, who took a good few hits to the face, before transforming into an eagle and flying off towards the Sky Fortress.
____ Night's Cloak still sat upon the eagle's back as it disappeared into the sky.
____ "I can't...I can't handle this shlt," said Lamplighter. He engulfed himself in fire and flew off.
____ Red didn't watch, or care where he went.
____ She dropped to her knees and cried into her hands.

Starosha
____ "So just let us get this clear,
____ a part of The Justice League is how we'll appear.
____ Here and now we should make some pacts?
____ So you can find the artifacts."
____ "And in return, you'll have Lock. You will be happy again. And an Archangel in my New World Order. What do you say?"
____ Hellspawn rubbed his oozing black chin. Then he leaned in and calmly, but firmly, bit the head off the one-eyed beggar.
____ "There are no traitors in The Justice League."

The Mouth
____ Skarn strolled up to Red with Muramasa held in his right hand.
____ Red stopped and gazed ahead. "If you're here to kill me, don't be confused. I might be upset, but I'll still fight tooth and nail."
____ "Nah, not here ta kill ya. Here to...help? Sorta."
____ "Help?" She said, getting to her feet. "Another ploy by Sineater."
____ "It's Kallum now."
____ "It's Sineater because he's a piece of shlt. What do you want, Skarn?"
____ "Imma survivor. Pretty difficult to survive in a world when there's notta world to survive in. I wanna take him down."
____ "Where's Akela?" She said, suspiciously.
____ "Not dead. Tossed the brat into a river, but I didnt kill 'er."
____ "Why should I trust you? Why should I trust any of this?"
____ Skarn shrugged.
____ “You’re a traitor,” said Red. “You’ve been working with Nate Sineater this entire time!"
____ "Not anymore," said Skarn.
____ Half of her friends were dead. Varuna was kidnapped, Lamplighter is MIA, Hellspawn is off on some mission. What choice did she have?
____ "Fine, whatever. What's your plan?"
____ "We need help. I know the Queen of Kronn has a hard-on for Kallum's corpse. We'll start there."
____ And so they went.
colonialbob has left the game! He was Nightblue
The Justice League [Nightcrawler / Boy Blue]
____ Hellspawn wandered through the streets of the market, while people gave him odd glances or just shuffled away entirely.
Still, every third person he saw started to speak to him.
____ "I think you should reconsider," said a random person.
____ Hellspawn ignored them.
____ "You and your friends are going to lose. And you should. I create life, and you just destroy it."
____ Still the demon continued, until he came face to face with a bald man in a wheelchair.
____ "I am everywhere," said Kallum, from the bald man's lips. "Where are you going to go?"
____ Over head, a fiery figure zoomed through the sky and landed next to Hellspawn, scattering embers as he did.
____ Lamplighter stood with a flaming sword and shield next to the demon.
____ "We guess we should cheer?
____ What are you doing here?"
____ Lamplighter shook his head. "I don't know if I can talk about it. But is it just me or did this bald guy have flashing yellow eyes?"
____ "One of them was glowing-"
____ "Good enough. I say we take him out, he's probably The Rat."
____ Hellspawn shrugged. He then shot out a web of tendrils into the bald man's chest, lifting him from the wheelchair.
____ Lamplighter took the stance of a samurai, then swung his fiery sword and severed the bald man in half.
____ The two halves fell to the ground.
____ "Huh, look at that.
____ We don't think he was The Rat."
____ Lamplighter waved away the sword and shield and then he sat on the street with his arms folded.
____ "Fvck. Another mistake. I'm just a smog. Everyone around me just dies."
____ Hellspawn stood awkwardly as the city's citizens started to panic and call in some Walu Knights.
____ "Sorry, but we can't stay.
____ You can tell me what happened along the way."
____ Lamplighter scooped them both up in a swan and they flew back to Gai.

Hoorman's Bay
____ Between Starosha and Solitutde there is a bay called Hoorman's Bay, where the cold has created rivers of ice and formed interesting ecosystems which are perfect for biological study.
____ The scientist had come here to take samples and hopefully learn more about the ever-changing world in which he lived.
____ At least that's what he told himself.
____ The truth of the matter was that recently he had been in a weird experiment got awry and learned to change his size into a green plastic-like goo.
____ Strange Goo is what he was calling himself.
____ The scientist carefully examined his findings for the day when he heard a low drumbeat.
____ He turned and saw a man running towards him at a very high speed.
____ "Peculiar," he said. But the speedster didn't stop.
____ The speedster came forth and uppercut the scientist at high speed.
____ While Strange Goo was unconscious, the speedster dragged his body to the edge of the bay where the ice stopped and the Deep Ones waited.
____ "Oh masters, please accept my humble blessing. Feast upon it, for I offer it to you."
____ The body was floated into the water, where a giant tentacle pulled it down.

Sakastra
____ With Dani Carlyle back in the province of Lyle, those still upset over the death of Dark Skull seemed to have calmed down. No one knew what happened to Skydda, but the general consensus was that Dani had returned so all was right again.
____ She was a take-no-shlt leader who helped build up the economy, and everyone knew she'd do it again.
____ Still, she was in Agarpolis now, and there were some in Sakastra who didn't appreciate her return.
____ Koopa had been in the arena since he was a child. He'd become one of the best fighters there, and probably in the world.
____ And he suspected that there might be something off about the returning leader.
____ First, where had she been? Why wasn't Lyle at war with whoever took her?
____ Since his father's death at the hands of Michael, Koopa had grown angry and suspicious. He wanted his revenge.
____ It was late when he stood in the arena, practicing his moves for tomorrow's fight.
____ The stands were empty, but tomorrow they'd be full of people cheering for him. Demanding blood.
____ He had an axe in one hand, and a sword in the other. He was the unkillable Koopa.
____ That was when Kallum approached, floating in the sky.
____ "You are a great fighter," said Kallum. "Truly the best in the world. But you keep spreading rumours about Dani Carlyle not being who she says she is. Why?"
____ The big man snorted. "Koopa aint stupid. Whatever that is on that bike aint my Dani. Everyone will know the truth."
____ "See, I can't have that. I need Danicycle so that Lyle doesn't turn on me. Hah, politics right? You understand."
____ Koopa started to raise his axe.
____ Kallum saw it, and he did what he came there to do. He fired a single laser blast from the one eye he had. It tore through Koopa's body, and left him a smoldering pile in the middle of the arena.

Kronn
____ "Shazam!" Shouted the Queen. She stood on the shore, with her staff aimed at Eldritch, drawing the attention of the big octopus creature.
____ She had dark skin, a white cloak, and a white staff.
____ Eldritch was trying to smack her with his tentacles, but the Queen wasn't having it. The creature most likely was trying to do something else this night and was brought here instead.
____ "Begone, vile creature!"
____ "Hey!" Red and Skarn ran towards the Queen. They had arrived in Kronn some time ago and were looking for her.
____ "Stand back! This creature is not to be trifled with!"
____ "Don't hurt him!" Said Red. She ran forward towards the great octopus creature, who seemed to soften at the sight of the red witch.
____ "I wish Varuna was here to talk to him, but he knows me. He's not a threat."
____ The Queen lowered her staff a little, but still remained uneasy. "That's nice and all dear, but I have no idea who you two are. A bear, a witch and an octopus. Yeah let me just put my trust hat on."
____ In the water, Eldritch calmed down. He seemed sad, and Red could tell he had been looking for his friend.
____ She waved at him, and the giant creature sat idly, but relaxed.
____ "We need your help," said Red to the Queen.
____ "With what?"
____ "With killin' the S.O.B that took your family," said Skarn.
____ She considered that. "If that's the case, then welcome to Kronn. I won't rest until Nate Sineater is dead."
____ "Yeah, about that..."
____ They walked back to one of the pyramids in the city as Red explained how Nate Sineater became Kallum.
