Remembrance tank

Remembrance Tanks allowed the Remote on Anathema to reproduce. A quantity of biomass would be placed in the remembrance tank and a headset would be attached. Citizens would come and literally 'remember' the person into existence. How a person was 'remembered' depended on the impressions that the person had imparted to the society. It was felt that this method allowed for more variety than the more straightforward method of cloning, which would simply recreate the previous individual, where remembrance tanks allowed the new version to change and grow. During his time with the Doctor, Fitz Kreiner was captured and recruited by the Remote and a version of him was remembered into existence as Kode, but even after two centuries since the original Fitz was present Kode retained enough of Fitz's body language and mannerisms for the Doctor to recognize him, allowing him to use a remembrance tank and the TARDIS's own 'memories' of Fitz to recreate Kode as Fitz.

Faction Paradox used Gallifreyan biomass to remember Greyjan the Sane into existence. (PROSE: The Ancestor Cell)
