Kalish Millicanon info
So, due to there not being a lot of specific info given on the Kalish in canon, this is what I've come up with to explain a few things about Sikozu:
- the only enhanced thing about Sikozu is her radiation/heat ability. Everything else is standard Kalish biology.
- the heat part of that enhancement is sort of millicanon. In PKW, Scorpius makes specific reference to her radiation being heat producing, to the point that it can ignite gas at a small volume. However, in WSS: La Bomba, Aeryn, D'Argo, Crichton and Scorpius all survive her full radiation, which indicates that there couldn't have been any heat, as they would have all been injured and they weren't. So it makes sense that she can control both aspects of the radiation: either heat producing, or not, but both will kill Scarrans.
- all enhanced Kalish are clones. While they are referred to as bioloids, they are not machines. Sikozu loses enough apendages in canon to indicate that she is not a mechanical bioloid, as are usually found. They are cloned from existing members of the Kalish resistance, who volunteered to be killed in order to allow the clones to take over their lives.
- clones are growth accelerated to match the age of the person they were cloned from. As such, Sikozu never had a childhood, or parents. Her first conscious memory is in her current physical state. The family of the girl she was cloned from do not accept her as part of them.
- Sikozu is approixamtely 10 years old, although physically she appears probably in her early 20's/late teens. Mentally, she is still fairly young.
- She was taught by the resistance for approximately one year, in isolation. She then worked her way up in education and society to being accepted by The Organization.
- Sikozu's job in the resistance was to infiltrate a specific area of Kalish/Scarran society and then await further instructions. For example, Sikozu's post was The Organization, Zukash's post was Katrazi, etc. She was still awaiting those instructions when she met Crichton.
- bioloids are not aware of who the other clones/enhanced are. This is mainly a security caution. If one is caught, they can't give up the others.
