Ideas Are Easy

I finally got around to checking out this webcomic, and just finished what there is; for Harem, she can unsummon (she calls it "un-teleport," since she also has teleportation powers) one or more of her bodies and keep it "in reserve" for a presumably-indefinite period (she did so when one broke a limb, and kept it there until the healer was ready), but stated she has no idea what might happen if one of her bodies snuffed it and would rather not find out, thank-you-very-much. As far as I can tell, she has simply always had five bodies (or at least has always had such ever since her powers manifested) and the ability to teleport, and may well not have any ability to replace lost dupes.
