Bioroids

Bioroids (short for biological androids) are bioengineered humanoid beings. Their creation--through biofabricators--is TL10.Bio-Tech, p.27 Unlike parahumans and the like, bioroids use a radically different genetic code that has been streamlined for easy engineering, using "slots" or "chunks" of artificial chromosomes.Bio-Tech, p.26 Bioroids tend to have Early Maturation 3-5, Sterile, and Unusual Biochemistry. Technologically, bioroids are one step beyond embryo-based cloning, as their entire genetic code and growth pattern can be closely monitored. 
== Bioroid Wars: A Sequel to Clone Wars ==
Like their cloned predecessors, some bioroid subtypes (such as the Spartan subtype) are cloned en masse during wartime. In fully TL10 settings (or ones with unusual tech), bioroid armies might be cloned preemptively and put "on ice" in suspended animation--they often age quite fast on their own!
== Bioroid Personhood ==
Bioroids are people. As per the THS setting, bioroids were often made specifically so that they could be owned, rather than employed, with corporations using bioroids' "nonhuman" status to justify their subjugation. Make no mistake, a sapient race does not lose its sovereign rights based on where they come from--be they made in a lab, made of code, spawned from the stars or born from the seas. Liberating yourself as a bioroid may be a campaign in and of itself.
== Bioroids of the Multiverse ==
Few of the known worlds have the technology for bioroids--a massive exception being Transhuman Space, which has countless numbers and types of them.
