Just to follow up on this... going the 'Mental' Duplicates route is way more expensive, at 92 points for one Dupe, 160 for two Dupes, and +63 points per extra Dupe up to 10 total and then +10 points extra to go to 99 Dupes ... I mean, Mind Link you know*? And that's if you agree that "No Permanent Duplicate Death" is only worth +100%.

* Personally I'd smooth the costs to 65 per Dupe and call it a new Meta Advantage like "Summon Tulpa".


Summon Tulpa 65 points/level
You can create a mental duplicate of yourself that lives within your own mind. It has no control over your body and may only take Concentration Maneuvers. It has it's own set of all your mental abilities and powers but shares your FP and HP.

Under the hood:
5/10/+10 Mind Link
24 Telesend [30] ("Self Only", -20%)
63 Duplication [35] (Mental Only, +0%; Shared Resources, -40%; No Sympathetic Injury, +20%; No Permanent "Dupe Death", +100%)


Duplication and Compartmentalized Mind have inherent differences, and need to be treated differently. Take whichever one best fits your needs of course, but let's keep them seperate.
