This article is about the generic Replica Soldiers. For the Replica Soldier who broke his conditioning and gained independence, see R-23

Replica Soldiers are military clones under the telepathic command of Paxton Fettel. They form the vast bulk of enemies the player encounters in F.E.A.R (with the exception of Perseus Mandate) and F.E.A.R 2:Project Origin.

Bio[edit | edit source]

Back in Vietnam, some high animals in the US military decided that ordering the grunts around via radio, flares, or smoke signs simply wasn't efficient enough and wanted a commander who could do the job via telepathy instead. Several secret projects and two instances of forced pregnancy on a young, psionically gifted Alma Wade later, Armachan first provided Paxton Fettel as the desired psychic commander, and then began to mass-produce an entire battalion of clones based on Fettel to serve as his army.

It goes beyond saying that this turned out to be a spectacularly bad idea when Fettel was mentally contacted by his dear mother and decided that he - along with roughly 1000 to 1500 Replica soldiers under his telepathic command - would go for a campaign of golly genocide against Armachan and other assorted individuals which had offended his "family."

Produced and pre-programmed for war, Replica soldiers hold a clear edge over regular human opponents, and possess notably faster reflexes than the latter. It is only the Point Man - the firstborn child of Alma - who can take them down in a reliable (and very effective) fashion. Presumably because they always give away their presence via loud com chatter.
