Ennis likely looks identical to her 'mother', just as Melvi Dormentaire looks exactly like Lord Avaro did in his youth. Inside a cultivation tank, Ennis grew to be the same age as her 'mother' because the culture liquid was the incomplete product, and then stopped growing because she had Szilard's immortal cells. In creating Ennis, Szilard used both his own cells and the cells of a mortal woman he kidnapped to catalyze her creation. The biological sex and appearance of the homunculus seems to match the sex and appearance of their genetic donor, but can be changed if another individual's genetic material is donated. The Immortal can pass knowledge to the homunculus using their left hand, and also has the ability to end the homunculus' life by cutting the connection between their own Immortal cells and the cells unique to the homunculus.Įnnis has described this process as follows: if Szilard is the "company's main store," then Ennis is a branch store. Homunculi created in this way are recognized as "another self" or as an "independent mobile colony" of the Immortal whose cells went into their creation (or of the Immortal who ate their creator). Types of Homunculi Colony Homunculi īy culturing the cells of a potential homunculus made with his own immortal cells inside a sample of the incomplete liquor of immortality, Szilard Quates was able to create homunculi which are complete immortals but which possess no knowledge at birth.
In the real world, it is said that Paracelsus's homunculus had to be kept alive by providing it with blood. He is said to have created a homunculus which possessed all knowledge from the moment of its creation however, it was too fragile to live outside its flask.
In the Baccano! series, as in the real world, the idea of a homunculus was popularized by the alchemist Paracelsus.
