Assimilative Replication

The power to convert others and/or objects into replicates of oneself or others. Combination of Conversion and Replication. Variation of Self-Replication. 
==Also Called==
*Assimilative Cloning/Duplication
*Converting Cloning/Duplication/Replication
*Self-Spawn/Self-Spawning
*Viral Cloning/Duplication/Replication
==Capabilities==
The user can transform others and/or objects into exact, often hive-minded, duplicates of themselves or others, both physically and in persona. The effect is often permanent and irreversible, but some unique individuals may be able to interrupt and reverse the process before it is completed. Users can also assimilate the knowledge, skills, memories and special abilities of their victims and share them with all replicas, becoming exponentially more powerful with each upgrade. If the user dies, then the next replica can become the original one and so on.
==Applications==
*Conversion - Transform others into duplicates, often in the form of identical self-duplicates. 
**One-Man Army - Users literally become an army of their own.
*Doppelgeization
*Hive Mind - All replicas are hosts of a single collective mind.
**Immortality - The numerous replica and super-fast proliferation make users virtually immortal.
*Knowledge Replication/Power Replication - Assimilate the victim's knowledge, skills, memories and abilities.
**Hive Genetics - Assimilated knowledge and powers are shared with all replicas.

==Limitations==
*Transformation Negation and Conversion Negation can undo the effects.
*Given they share the same powers and personality, the clones also share the same weakness and limitations of the original.
*Killing the user might undo the effects. Although since the clones are an assimilation of the user, it might be tricky to find the original.
