I might have missed some errata but does anyone know why Escaped Clone is a positive quality?

The only thing I can think of is so one can't buy it off.

Real quick off the top of my head: It's probable that any shady dealing that might get linked to you will probably get linked to him instead. Ex DNA at a crime scene.

It's basically Digital Doppleganger (10 point positive) and Big Regret (5 point negative) rolled into one.

I suppose that's one way to play it, though it looks like it's more one you take if you are the escaped clone.

Also it say that if they find out that you are a clone it's -1 die to all social skill tests for you...I guess, to me, it just doesn't look like you really don't get any positive benefits from this quality.

As Dr R. said, people can materially trace crimes back to you. Leave those bloodstains and fingerprints. Let them get a picture of you. Odds are they'll go after the original.

Until the original gets wind, or explains, and the authorities realize you're a clone.

So it's basically a limited useage "Get Out Of Jail Free" card.

Plus, there's all those free organs and limbs to harvest from your DNA donor!

Or vice versa
