They are not subject to nonlethal damage, ability damage, ability drain (except as noted under Destruction/Restoration, below), energy drain, or the effects of massive damage. They cannot be raised from the dead (but again, see below).Repairable: A successful Repair check (DC 30) heals 1d10 points of damage to a bioreplica, and each check represents 1 hour of work.  Duran's nanite infused body also heals 1 point of damage per hour.Critical Systems: Although they are constructs, bioreplicas have vital areas and critical systems. Consequently, they are subject to critical hits.Lifelike Appearance: Duran is indistinguishable from a adult Frenchman.  Even when cut open, he appears human right down to a cellular level.Medium Construct, HD: 12d10+10, Mas:-, Init: +8(+2 equipment, +4 feat, +2 dexterity) Defense: 19 (+1 natural, +2 dexterity, +6 forcefield), touch: 18, flat footed: 17, BAB: 15/10/5, Grp: +19/+14/+9, Attack: +19/+14/+9 melee +17/+12/+7 ranged, SQ:Construct traits, Critical systems, darkvission 120', scent, AL: Self, GENOM, Evil, SV: Fort +8, Ref+8, Will+14, AP 10, Rep: +10, Str 18 Dex 15 Con - Int 30 Wis 23 Cha 15Skills: (just assume that he has at least ten ranks in everything, including decorative basket weaving.  It's easier that way.)Feats:  Personal Firearms proficiency, Improved initiative, Aircraft operation, Spaceship operations, Educated, Studious, Vehicle Expert.Sensors: Class VIIIAccessories: vocalizer, built in videophone, wireless Internet link (enables Durandal to remotely upload or download himself into this body as a full round action.  Its a DC 30 Computer use check to do that as a move action and a DC 50 to load as a free action.)Shortly after the 23 hours, Durandal established himself as Mosiour Duran, a rich Frenchman with interest in GENOM.  Following several questionable but legal property deals, Duran bought out several stockholders outright, paying as much as half a dollar per share more than the going price.  At great price, he obtained not only 30% of the company but also a seat on the board of directors.  And he realized that he needed a butt to place on that seat.  His favorable attitude towards the Colonial Remnant made him a target for a couple of assassination attempts by Cylons, who spent all their time searching his estate for a man who didn't exist.  So he tore their bodies apart, examined the stats on Major Kusanagi's last scraped body, and added everything he could pull from both to make a unique S-44 class boomer.  The S-44 model is totally indistinguishable from a normal human, and only one exists.  The only way to determine it's inhumanity would be a sub cellular analysis.  He made the body as tough as possible so as to make it hard to kill him while he was wearing it, but at the same time leaves nothing to chance.  'Duran' is never seen without a small horde of bodyguards, both human and Boomer.  At the first sign that anything is wrong, he retreats to safety.  It's a safe bet that killing him is a good deal harder than most people would guess.</blockquote>
