Oh, in that case the 'Notable Specimens' section of my unit schematic needs a lot of revision. I was under the impression that they could be played like different members of the same species and this their own sub-characters. Each Maneater on the Trough's staff would have to be identical then, right? Does that mean that in the new world their personalities would also be identical? Could they even have different names?

To answer, Personality is flexible, Design is flexible, Name is flexible, but the Schematic is preset. So, you can easily have subspecies within a single Schematic by simply designing them to do different things, and personalities that befit them - especially in the New World, where they would be able to evolve their personalities beyond the scope of their designs due to the lack of binary constraints.
