*In [[M41]], in the wake of the disastrous [[Arkio]] Insurrection, [[Apothecary Majoris]] [[Caecus]] of the [[Blood Angels]] proposed using replication. Commander [[Dante]] disapproved, but Caecus continued his research in secret. Caecus believed he had succeeded with the aid of a mysterious [[Magos Biologis]], but his creations, the [[Bloodfiends]], though at first promising, turned into bloodthirsty monsters, manifesting extreme versions of the Blood Angels' geneseed flaws, the [[Black Rage]] and the [[Red Thirst]]. It is uncertain how much of this catastrophe was accident caused by Caecus's incomplete knowledge, and how much was deliberately engineered by the Magos (who turned out to be the traitor [[Fabius Bile]] in disguise).{{Fn|1}}
*The [[Cawl Inferior]], a deliberately engineered imperfect clone of [[Belisarius Cawl]].{{Fn|4}}
*The [[Guilliman Inferior]], an imperfect clone of [[Roboute Guilliman]] used by [[Belisarius Cawl]].{{Fn|4}}
*Various Cloned [[Primarch]]s created by [[Fabius Bile]] including [[Ferrus Manus]]{{Fn|5}}, [[Horus]]{{Fn|6}}, and [[Fulgrim]]{{Fn|7}}
*The [[Leagues of Votann]] utilize cloning heavily to reproduce, most notably using [[Cloneskeins]] technology.{{Fn|8}}
