Man made race.

...We also know they somehow synthesized Voidsent, but just how you can make an artificial demon is beyond me...

Well they were supposed to be this sci-fi uptopian socitity before their fall, which means that had access to lots of advanced tech. Plus we have confirmation of cloning, so it's likely that they started from there.

For reference the Voidsent found in Allagan ruins are:

• Chimerae: Fractal and Azys Lla
• Nagas: Fractal and Azls Lla
• Gargoyles: Labyrinth
• Succubi: Labyrinth
• Lamiae: Dalamud and Azys Lla
• Bombs: Labyrinth
• Dullahans: Maybe Labyrinth, Fractal and Azys Lla too (those could be robots and the Garleans did bring their colossi along)
• Ahrimans: Labyrinth

Those are all the voidsent I can think of there (I'm discounting T6 due to it actually being outside the Dalamud fragment [plus there no Voidsent there anyway] as well as WoD due to thinking that none of the voidsent mobs there were bred by Allag)

Regarding the Giants, I should also point out the Renauds in T7

Well yeah, but when you think about "demon" (which may as well be a synonym for voidsent), it's generally possessed of a special essence that separates it from normal life-forms. Sure it's possible to replicate the physical form, but without an infernal spark, it's just a fake, like the difference between Echidna and various lamiae that inhabit Azys Lla (etc).

In regards to man-made races being playable in the future, with the tech we have now I'd expect to see something like the Warforged from Dungeons and Dragons' Eberron setting. While it took a considerable amount of effort, we've already synthesized a sentient soul. Unfortunately, considering how expensive the items just to make a weapon to house our Anima weapon's spirit is, making a fully-functional humanoid frame is out of the question except for all but the wealthiest people in the game story-wise (Rowena and Lolorito, basically), and those particular individuals are unlikely to make such a being out of the goodness of their hearts.

(Yes, like many people I am quite salty over the exorbitant amount of effort required to get an Anima weapon.)

You forget that Xande made a deal with the Cloud of Darkness. It's possible that she might had given Xande and Amon the means to replicate that essence (or the essence itself)

You're right those two are likely to have ulterior motives for such an endeavor. Rowena might go for this in an attempt to either make drones or a slave market (or both, note that the reaon were on Anima is because she is interested in making and selling sentient arms), plus the Tomes might have infomation on manikins like in Fractal. Lolorito or other unscrupulous Syndicate members might also go along with this endeavor for unpaid labor that woudn't have the same free will issues Amajina and Sons had with the hecatonchires or some sort of political plot later on or both.

Actuallynow that I think about it, we're the manikins of Dissidia copes of the FF heroes and villains? that might make potential applications more versed towards espionage, infiltration, and most likely impersonation and for Lolorito, one might be all he needs if he wants to regain his lost wealth (he gave half of it to Nanamo), or wants to undermine another group

Wait? This is a thread asking if any of the "Spoken Races" were allagan chimeras right?

The voidsents we saw on the Labyrinth of Ancients were true voidsents, not replicated ones by the allagans. I notice we can easly difference a true voidsent from an allag-made voidsent

I agree, I was just listing the voidsent in general, but not all the manufactured ones had the same silver and cyan color scheme, (See the Azys Lla Chimeras). Come to think of it those colores were on the Mimics, the Snakes in T1 and T5, and the Avatar as well

That's why it's called "synthetic" voidsent.
