I must say of all the explanations in space MMOs so far I find EVEs solution the most plausible sounding. Aside from the fact that it is kewl!
But if you want true realism, go to STO. Your ship pops up there, you don't even get into a clone... You just respawn at full health right on scene in the very same ship! :) That technology is easily explained (time loop, Q and parallel universe saving your lower back I guess?) |

lol the mere thought of cloning in a game where we all warp, jump, and shoot each other in vitrual spaceships is utterly preposterous |

Quoted from eve wikki
What happens in the game world when a character gets killed? In the world of EVE Online, if your character dies, he or she dies in a pod. A pod is a metallic egg developed by the Jovians that can warp and use jump gates. If the pod is breached, your character has no hope of survival, so a device in the pod takes a "snapshot" of your character's mind while another device injects your character with a poison that kills the character instantly. Then your character's mind is transferred to a clone and can keep on living.
Clones are typically created from cadavers that have similar physical characteristics to your original body. Their DNA is replaced with your DNA, and their bodies are cosmetically altered to look like you. |

Doh. I always thought that clones where created from cell samples and where grown out at an accelerated pace from a zygote until their development matched that of the original body (much as real world cloning goes, just without a need to wait for years until the clone is grown-up). The idea of being a reanimated corpse taken over by a culture of my cells (kind of a hi-tech zombie) makes death quite unappealing and disturbing... I was happier to not know that, really. I should had never left X3: Reunion |

Cloning, the death process, and the POD, are all very well covered in the lore. You should see how other games explain death... "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn" |

Dunno where my post went, heres how it happens...
Your pod becoming breached is the catalyst.
Then, the pod takes a brain scan of your brain.
The brain scan is so brutal its literally crippling, which is why the pod injects poison that instantly kills your brain the nanosecond the scan is done.
The pod transmits the brain scan results and self destructs.
No magic involved. Or greasy ass elves for that matter. |

Just how much did they really have to smoke?
The Vorta of DS9 were all cloned repeatedly. Jem'Hadar were raised in "birthing pods". Traveling vast distances via wormhole was also a big part of DS9.
In the Lexx series, there were various references to "the protein bank" in the first 4 movies before the destruction of The Cluster.
The mysterious weapon used by the Amarr seems similar to the MD from "Ender's Game".
It would probably take an entire book to go through all Eve technology and concepts and find from what series or book it came from - something I would reserve a case of beer and a long thread for.

EVE isn't a plucky happy go lucky universe. It's grim, dark, sadistic, and brutal. And especially in a picky business like cloning, the standardized clone theory would be good for profits. Of course that's just one company, and gives a general idea of the business. My backstory is I still have my natural home grown orignal body in storage...it helps ease the horror of using clones. |

It does kind of make sense, though.. Even if you consider accelerated growth, it'd still be weeks (or days, if you're really advanced), before a clone would be matured. Whatever biomatter gets left over from corpses is either used for Quafe (the ever so popular soft drink in New Eden) or clones, it's simply a matter of efficiency over the possible indigestion of an over-sensitive egger.
There was a chronicle of a team of salvagers who hunted for corpses, too, but I forget the name and can't seem to find it fast enough to link. |

that's why i stored in cryostasis my original Body and start using a new clone just for everyday .
Also i may be quite wrong but wasn't the Protein bank a huge mass of Processed corpses from the executions in the cluster to feed first the Lexx and later the gigashadow? |
