Clones participate in all the same activities as Master Editions, but with the risk of being lost or burned in PvP.

### Clones are...
* Lost or burned in PvP: Vulnerable in high-risk battles.
* Transferable Contents: Can be consumed to transfer contents or experience to another Critter.
* Individual Treasure Chest: Each Cloned Edition has its own Token Bound Wallet that can hold $QUEST tokens and other assets.
* Unique Equipment: Can equip unique items such as weapons, hats, shields, boots, and amulets.
* Independent Rewards: Earn rewards in the game independently of the Master Edition.
