- Estimated Population: Rare.
- Description: Created from the genome provided by Lunafreya Solidor. They were given the proper funding for its creation with the intent of being the perfect cloned soldier in her service, one that would never lie, never betray her and provide her unquestioning worship. As the product of one of the most respected bio-engineering companies in the galaxy, these creatures were modeled after her sister's physique, their bodies possess many of the same qualities that she enjoyed in life, but with the only exception of being facially different from her deceased favorite sister, that being the sole request she truly gave the cloners during the initial drawings of their project. To that end, Lunafreya did the unspeakable and offered the bones of her own dead sister, not out of respect or love, but to keep her bloodline in these clones, while choosing between other templates to add to the genetic modification of that project, those including her own.
- Breathes: Oxygen.
- Average Height of Adults: 1,8.
- Average Length of Adults: Not Applicable, members of the species are always bearers of lean frames.
- Skin color: Caucasian.
- Hair color: Variable.
- Distinctions: All members of this species are females, they all look exactly the same and they all measure exactly the same (with the exception of a few templates). They are regarded as beautiful by most humanoid standards, if not, at least regarded as being very attractive, for the Daughters were built to carry the genome of the Epicanthix template brought by the Duchess making them resistant to most mental attacks of the Force, also carrying the speed, loyalty, and beauty of her own kind, as their bodies demonstrate by moving with grace and stealth.
- Races:
- Noth - Also referred to as 'numbers'. The ordinary and yet on training members of the Daughters are only allowed of calling themselves with their numerical series and hardly allowed of removing their armors in front of others and even in their sleep.
- Macil - Also referred to as 'blades'. The Daughters that have proved themselves in battle, are awarded names and weapons of their own once they have confirmed their prowess and given.
- Pahta - Also referred to as 'privateer'. Most members of this group have darker hair than the others and are easily identified as being force users that are taken to special training by either Lunafreya herself, or the ones closest to her. These are unique creatures with not only names of their own, but very singular and distinct personalities, they are given special assignments such as leading others in battle, or whatever thing Lunafreya enjoy doing it. Most of them are raised separately from the main group.
- Force Sensitivity: All.
- Elzeri Genetics - The baseline genetic structure of both Lunafreya and her dead sister is elzeri by nature, meaning that they possess high metabolism, natural muscularity, natural speed, natural reflexes, and natural potent pheromones transpired through their bodies. Aside from their physical traits being those as the same as an elzeri would have, with the sole exception of their ears being of pointer tips and much more sensitive to sonic distress.
- Epicanthix Genetics - Genes cultivated from tests subjects harvested from a number of Epicanthix's templates of both male and females has also been incorporated with this species in its creation. The use of genetic material in question provides the clone's mental immunity to a great number of telephatical attacks with the Force.
- Trandoshan Genetics - A feat worthy of being remarked by the sharpest minds of the Extragalactic Society, was adding trandoshan genes to the production of these clones. Adding the former was done with the goal of yielding them with its reptilian ability to regenerating lost limbs, and as not expected by the cloning masters, an odd misplaced anomaly has developed in the species' mouths, when their teeth, following the reptilian genome, awards them with very sharp teeth, with their pupil eyelids being blinked sideways, much like a lizard, instead of an ordinary humanoid. This eyesight has given the species capacity of naturally seeing in infrared vision, and superior strength of those as a humanoid would have, matching an male Wookie with her bare fists.
- This is definitely a Cult - Brainwashed with the sole idea of serving their Mistress ever since they are conceived, the idea of serving their Mistress can be said to be fused deep within their minds resembling much more like religious worshipping than an actual imprinted memory. Every Selyë carries behavioral nanochips inside their brains that assist them in keeping their harsh, violent reptomammal features of coming to life and forcing them into being much more obedient. Also, every single template carries a tracker beneath their skin, an untraceable small addition beneath their skin to keep every single clone tracked by the Duchess.
- Can't get weirder - By mixing the genomes of three very distinct alien species, has given the clones bursts of emotional distress such as flashes of reptilian savagery, that can prove to be dangerous bursts of uncontrollable fury, and a thirst for blood and flesh, regardless of their origin, whether sentient or not.
- Slicers Dream - If activated by any chance whatsoever, the behavioral chips can cause paralysis in every single motion in their bodies, causing respiratory failure and eventually death, where the chip inside their brains will discharge deadly bursts of electricity in their bodies until their flesh is set ablaze, horribly burning them alive. This can be a horrible way to die.
- Limited Imagination - With their independence pretty much removed, the clones are not the most famous for having individualistic ideas beyond those provided by their training and their masters.
- Don't invite them for a drink, I mean it - This was one of Lunafreya’s eerie requests during their creation. The clones were internally changed by inducing them with a rare type of persistent hepatitis, rendering them incapable of taking any sort of alcoholic amount within their bodies. A single drop of any alcoholic substance being able to cause fever, diarrhea, and in large amounts, death. Oddly enough, this forced many of them to resort to consuming other sorts of recreational substances.
- Sterile - Due to fear of their sentimental sides, all members of the species are genetically castrated as soon as they are conceived.
- Nullfiers - Due to their connection with the Force, the Daughters are not used of having themselves cut from this connection. If so, they can become confused, erratic, and clumsy in their ways, since they are very rarely given any understanding of what that connection is or may yet be as even fewer of them are taken for special training.
- Diet: Omnivore. However, due to their reptomammal characteristics, the Selyë have a higher necessity of consuming the flesh of any kind of creature in the galaxy, rarely can be found one that is unlikely to cause them any harm. The lack of meat on their menu can lead to serious personality outbursts of their most reptilian sides.
- Communication: Although they can easily speak galactic standard, binary and huttese, the clones were taught two main languages; Elzar and High Elzar, and the secretive gesture language called silsil, for them to use among themselves when in need of being in total silence.
- Technology level: Clones are taught to use the same level of technology as galactic standards easily.
- Religion/Beliefs: The clones are taught through both imprinted memories, flash learning, and tedious long lessons on how Lunafreya Solidor is a living goddess. Therefore, every Selyë believes that she is their creator, their source, their fate, their owner, and the one that will make them ascend from this ordinary life to the next if they serve her faithfully and with absolute loyalty.
- General behavior: Lunafreya based their teachings on Epicanthix and Elzeri society.
- Trained ever since they are born as warriors, they are to be taught how to create a combination of militaristic mindsets and yet uphold with high regard all things related to art and culture, the Selyë trained and honed their bodies in preparation for war - learning how to value being placed on an individual's combat readiness - while simultaneously broadening their minds by studying art, music, and literature. With ritualistic chantings of their own for religious partings, combined with nigh-invisible tattoos done on their forehead that serve as a rite of passage in which the Daughter has earned herself a name, given to by either herself or by Lunafreya (or by whoever she puts in charge of them), being called by their numerical series when have not prove themselves on the fields of glory. Taught to be practical yet praising aesthetic, the Daughters worked this duality into much of their way of life; their armors were to be beautiful yet lethal, their hair was tied in ceremonial styles that were not only attractive but practical for combat, and while they trained their bodies to build the strength they need, they simultaneously toned them for beauty. They are meant to serve with loyalty and love, to obey every command without ever considering questioning them, and to be ever faithful to their Mistress. When not deployed to serve, the clones have shown interest in reading, but they are kept from reading most of the galactic materials considered as subversive, corrupting and pollutive material by Lunafreya's standards and therefore are only allowed to read what has been approved by their instructors. The clones train heavily most of their time, where they practice Teras Kasi, Stava, and even the Echani Style of fighting. Taught most of the time by martial artists, the Daughters learn how to handle most of the melee weapons available to them, although, using a halberd like a weapon such as the wan-shen is the greatest part of their training, while some are meant to be trained as soldiers without little time to do nothing except working and training. Among themselves, a Daughter cannot kill another Daughter without being ordered to do it so, the penalty for that is believed by them to be worse than death, but, they are taught to seek each other's weaknesses and to exploit them to their advantage. In disputes and training, Daughters that have maimed the other one under this rightful cause are complimented and rewarded.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
About five years ago before she left Kaikielius, Lunafreya reached out to the master geneticists of Psychasec and asked them to provide her with an elite company of cloned soldiers. Now for such enterprise to take place, she was in dire need of bringing them something worthy of note, Lunafreya provided them with a small sample of her own genome for them to use in their cloning experiments. The cloners, however, were very clear when they said that Lunafreya’s blood was already ‘tainted’ by both light and darkness, and their first experiments produced creatures that became highly unstable and deranged with madness.
Determined to fix this mistake, Lunafreya departed and searched all over the galaxy until she provided them with other genomes. First, the princess brought an Epicanthix mercenary, one that she had hired and gave it alive for the cloners to provide them with a way to make the templates more mentally stable with the sensitive traits of their genome. But that did not remove the traces of the dark side in their DNA, forcing Lunafreya to ponder how to resolve this issue for a while.
Determined, she invaded her family's territory during the night, entering the ancient Solidor catacombs, desecrating the rest of the dead, and returning with her sister's skull. On the way, Lunafreya brought another mercenary, this time a trandoshan of great renown in certain social circles in the underworld. Her theory was that by providing her sister's DNA, pure as she had been, and filling in the gaps left with her own, geneticists would be able to produce desired specimens and be able to be used to fulfill the princess' wishes using the mental resistance of the Epicanthix genetic code to stabilize the health and connection of those creatures with the Force. And by adding the genetic code of the trandoshan, the muscle tissue of those creatures became more adept at mental reconstruction, thus achieving the desired goal in providing that that had been requested by the princess.
Unfortunately, there were errors with the clones, such as outbreaks of savagery brought by the DNA of the duchess and the trandoshan, as well as other issues. Such a major problem was the production of 510 units, where eight had to be destroyed due to refusing to comply, others even turned against their creators. Such that made her laugh at the geneticists' face and declare it almost proud.
"Let my enemies tremble before these creatures and protect their throats from their fangs."
The project only paid off in the days that Lunafreya served in the New Imperial Order as Duchess of JanFathal, Warlord of the Empire in the service of the Sovereign One.
With proper instructors, Daughters were trained in hand-to-hand fighting arts throughout the galaxy, such as that of the Echani Arts, Teräs Käsi, and even Stava. Two hundred units were delivered to the training of a mandalorian named Ursula Vizla, where they were prepared to serve as elite soldiers among the troops of the famous New Imperial Order. The remaining three hundred units, those with latent strength in their genetic codes, were given extensive training in order to become the Duchess's greatest protectors in her new palace.
