I had intended to duplicate Rosemary Winters, with the hope that a perfect replica might serve as a suitable vessel. However, the results were less than ideal.
It would seem that some sort of interference is preventing me from creating a suitable replica.
Instead I have succeeded in making what is, essentially, a living doll. It resembles the real thing, yes, but has no power. Such a pathetic husk could never prove suitable as a vessel.
I will continue my efforts in hopes of discerning the source of this interference. Several hypotheses have come to mind thus far:
1. The fact that Rose herself is still alive.
2. Some other actor within this realm.
3. A flaw in my methods of production.
None of these seem especially likely to be the sole reason, nor are any of them easy problems to solve.
Perhaps my best hope is to somehow bring Rose into this realm. Were she to offer herself as a vessel it would be so simple.
Additional observations:
Further experiments with these Rose Copies (as I've taken to calling these husks) have yielded another interesting wrinkle to pursue.
When subjected to situations evoking extreme terror, they actually begin to express some semblance of Rose's abilities.
This warrants more research, and I think that my first creation, the Masked Duke, is just the one to perform this "stress test."
