Artificial Family Member	comment	Artificial Family Member is when a creation is seen as family by its creator and vice versa. While the most standard portrayal of this is the creator being the parent and the creation being their child, other versions can occur. While most often seen in the realm of science when creations are either robots, clones or other forms of Artificial Human, magic can also be used as a replacement. There's a good chance that there will be actual blood ties as the creator might use their own DNA as a basic structure. Or better yet, they may have used someone else's DNA instead. The reluctant donor may not be too happy with the resulting offspring. If the creation is actually a case of a Replacement Goldfish, expect plenty of drama. Maybe the creator isn't happy with the result as it isn't like the original. Or maybe the creation will resent the original and wants to be seen as its own person. At a mundane level, this can apply to real life people like artists or writers and their creations as they may see them as family to some capacity. A major difference between this and Robo Family is that the latter also covers examples of "families" consisting entirely of robots, whereas here the creator is almost always a human. Compare Pygmalion Plot, where the artificial being is treated as a Love Interest instead of a family member. Though, the two tropes can overlap. Compare Thank the Maker for when the creator of an artificial lifeform is treated more like a god. Can overlap with Secret Project Refugee Family. Contrast That Thing Is Not My Child!, where the creator rejects their creations, and Guinea Pig Family, where a biological family member is reduced to a lab rat.

Artificial Family Member / int_11b7db91	comment	Adventure Time: The entire Candy Kingdom was created by Princess Bubblegum and she sees them as her children who she cares about. Even people like Lemongrab who is an annoyance is still loved by her. Goliad and Stormo were created by Princess Bubblegum with the former created by standard candy parts and Bubblegum's baby teeth and the latter created with Finn's DNA. Goliad refers to Stormo as her brother and Finn himself refers to Stormo as his son. "Bonnibel Bubblegum" reveals the first three Candy People were explicitly meant to be Princess Bubblegum's family. She was still (physically) a child then, so she made them older than she was—specifically an uncle, aunt, and older cousin modeled on a family she found a photograph of. NEPTR is a machine created by Finn to act as a pie thrower, which came to life when he was hit by some of the Ice King's frozen lightning. NEPTR considers them both his fathers, but of course, the Ice King ("Papi") cannot remember that he exists, and Finn ("Creator") isn't much better.

Artificial Family Member / int_19ac551d	comment	Laura Kinney a.k.a. X23 is the Opposite-Sex Clone of Wolverine, created by The Facility. How their relationship was seen actually change from that of a brother-sister dynamic to a much more father-daughter one once Logan decided to adopt her and Daken saw her as a sister. There's also Dr. Sarah Kinney who was forced by Dr. Zander Rice to give birth to X-23. While sympathetic, Sarah was emotionally abusive to X even if she did try to help her as much as she could. Eventually she did pull a Heelâ€“Face Turn and tried to save Laura from the Facility. Laura also saw Sarah's sister and niece as her aunt and cousin even if there was no true blood ties. Rice himself can be seen as the "father" to X-23 as he was the head scientist to the project. He was portrayed as the true abusive parent since he focus all his hate on Wolverine to her. It is theoretically possible that Laura may have actual Kinney DNA, given her slight resemblance to her mother and the fact that the DNA sample used to create her was damaged, which may have required the splicing of Sarah's DNA to repair it.

However, because Fate ended up being entirely different from Alicia, Precia becomes an Abusive Parent. Despite that, Fate still loved her mother and considers Alicia her older sister. Reinforce Zwei from Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's. She was created by Hayate Yagami by using the left over Unison Device of Reinforce Eins. She's often treated as the baby of the Yagami family even if she says she is an adult. Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS: The Numbers, 12 cyborgs created by Doctor Jail Scaglieti. He regards all of them as his own daughters which some do share his DNA and they in turn see him as a loving father. Even the ones who turned face. There's also a small example of Parental Incest since he implanted clone embryos of himself in the sisters in case his plans were to fail. Subaru and Ginga Nakajima, the adopted daughters of Genya and Quint, are revealed to be cyborgs themselves whose DNA are base on Quint. This also meant that they were sisters to The Numbers even before some of them were adopted into the Nakajima family. Subverted with Vivio Takamachi, the adopted daughter of both Nanoha and Fate. At first glance, she would seem to be their biological kid since she looks very similar to them. She's really just a clone of a long ago ruler and has zero blood relation to Nanoha and Fate. Amitie and Kyrie Florian from The Gears of Destiny are Robot Girls who were raised as their creator's daughters after he accidentally granted them sentience. Amitie also refers his other non-sentient creations as her brothers and sisters. Iris from the Reflection/Detonation duology refers to her late creator Phil Maxwell as her father and her primary motivation in the movies is getting revenge for his murder. This affection does not run both ways, as he's a sociopath who only pretended to love her because it would make her develop her potential as a Super-Soldier faster.

Artificial Family Member / int_32c541e6	comment	Fullmetal Alchemist: The homunculi are the Anthropomorphic Personification of Father's Seven Deadly Sins, which he ripped out of his own soul to make himself a more perfect, god-like being. He addresses them as his children, and it's suggested (by another character pointing out why he made his creations call him "Father") that deep down his true desire was to have a family like humans do, although by the current day his soul is so stripped down that Father treats his children as minions, shows them little if any affection, and then we see how "fatherly" he is when Greed refuses to work for him. Apart from Greed, all the homunculus siblings are blindly loyal and devoted to him, even the most evil of them, and several of them show the same love for each other. Father is also considered this to Slave 23 AKA Hohenheim and by extension, Ed and Al, having been created from 23's blood and in a sense making him 23's oldest "child" (as referenced in an omake). In the past, we're shown that Father reached out to 23 to help him better his life because he views 23 as his creator (not the one who actually performed the experiment using 23's blood, mind you, who is presumably among those Father sacrifices) and went out of his way to spare 23 from the destruction of Xerxes and grant him immortal life out of misguided affection. Now, of course, they're enemies, as is Father with Ed and Al. Meanwhile, in Fullmetal Alchemist (2003), the homunculi were given a different origin story and were revealed to be the results of alchemists attempting to bring back their dead loved ones. By the end of the series, it's made deliberately unclear if the homunculi are twisted versions of the people they were meant to be truly Back from the Dead but Brainwashed and Crazy by Dante, or entirely new beings created by alchemy and reacting in different ways to the memories they inherited... but regardless, Izumi Curtis regards Wrath as her own son, fights to defend him even when he pulls a Faceâ€“Heel Turn, and adopts him after the TV show ends with him accepting her as his mommy in The Conqueror Of Shamballah. Sloth is vehement for most of her life that the Elrics are NOT her family and Ed and Al (Trisha's sons who created Sloth when trying to bring Trisha back) are NOT her sons, wanting to kill them to prove she's her own person, but whether that's true gets thrown into question in her last episode. Lastly, Envy is revealed to be the reincarnation of Dante's son with Hohenheim and has been the longest-serving Dragon to his "mother" for centuries (though we're shown a distinct absence of love on both sides). Envy is directly equated by the Big Bad to Ed and Al's (much older) half-brother due to sharing a father, and his torment of the Elric brothers is done out of bitter spite towards Hohenheim for abandoning him when he Came Back Wrong. Which means that in both continuities, Envy and Sloth are technically related to the heroes, either as their nephews/niece and nephew in Brotherhood or as their undead evil older half-brother and undead evil mom in the first anime. They also have an evil older half-brother by Hohenheim in both continuities.

Poppy, another Bugster, actually sees Dan Kuroto as her birth father since he created her and named her. The feeling is surprisingly mutual as Kuroto also sees her as family. Might also be because Poppy is the Busgster of his mother. Downplayed with Parado and Emu. While no true family connection was made, since Parado did came out of Emu's body and wanted to play with him and the two ending up as Bash Brothers, the two can be seen as brothers.

This knowledge drives her mad and he ends up reprogramming her as a maid. "I Sing the Body Electric" is about a widower purchasing a robot Grandma from a company as caretaker for his children. One of his daughters is very slow to warm up to her, still being bitter over her mother's death, before seeing that the gynoid is nigh-invulnerable and thus never at risk of dying on her.

After Lena has a Heelâ€“Face Turn and is disowned by Magica, she is Happily Adopted by Violet's fathers. In "Happy Birthday, Doofus Drake!", Louie discovers that Mark Beaks' son Boyd is actually a robot (a Beaks Optimistic Youth Droid). Once exposed, Beaks basically abandons Boyd, who ends up adopted into Doofus' family. It's later revealed that Boyd isn't actually Beaks' creation at all, but Gyro's. Gyro abandoned Boyd for seemingly turning evil, but changes his mind once he learned that was his partner's doing, though Gyro doesn't quite refer to Boyd as family. The Grand Finale reveals Webby is an artificial daughter (possibly an Opposite-Sex Clone) of Scrooge made by FOWL before Mrs. Beakley rescued her as an infant. Later on, FOWL cloned May and June from her. They treat FOWL Directors Buzzard and Black Heron like parents (they even once call the latter "mom"), but aren't treated as much besides minions. After the girls' Heelâ€“Face Turn, they are taken in by Donald and Daisy.

In the case of the latter, following his Heroic Sacrifice during the "Grim Hunt" arc, he's buried under the name Kaine Parker. In Avengers: The Initiative, the Scarlet Spiders are all clones of Michael Van Patrick mixed with DNA from Baron von Blitzschlaug. He frequently refers to them as his boys. The ever Tangled Family Tree that started with Hank Pym and his rebellious robot son, Ultron who has an oedipus complex on Pym. He once attempted to create a wife by using the brainwaves base on Hank's wife Janet and naming her Jocasta. Then there is Ultron's sons The Vision and Victor Mancha. Vision himself marries Scarlet Witch and with the use of her Chaos Magic, created two sons for themselves. And later on, Vision creates a Robo Family consisting of a wife, a son, a daughter, and a dog. And the wife's brainwaves are base on Scarlet Witch's. And then there was the time Hank Pym was in a relationship with Jocasta which squicked others out since he is technically her grandfather. Though, she sees it as being with God. Laura Kinney a.k.a. X23 is the Opposite-Sex Clone of Wolverine, created by The Facility. How their relationship was seen actually change from that of a brother-sister dynamic to a much more father-daughter one once Logan decided to adopt her and Daken saw her as a sister. There's also Dr. Sarah Kinney who was forced by Dr. Zander Rice to give birth to X-23. While sympathetic, Sarah was emotionally abusive to X even if she did try to help her as much as she could. Eventually she did pull a Heelâ€“Face Turn and tried to save Laura from the Facility. Laura also saw Sarah's sister and niece as her aunt and cousin even if there was no true blood ties. Rice himself can be seen as the "father" to X-23 as he was the head scientist to the project. He was portrayed as the true abusive parent since he focus all his hate on Wolverine to her. It is theoretically possible that Laura may have actual Kinney DNA, given her slight resemblance to her mother and the fact that the DNA sample used to create her was damaged, which may have required the splicing of Sarah's DNA to repair it.

Unfortunately the reasons behind his creation are extremely dark — Caleb was murdered by Philip for falling in love with a witch, and Hunter is merely the latest in a very long line of Grimwalkers, all created as Belos's attempts at making a "better" version of Caleb that would obey him without question, and killed when they failed to live up to that expectation. While he acts as Hunter's father figure, Belos is an extremely abusive one, keeping Hunter isolated from the outside world, forcing him to do the job of an adult at age 16, verbally abusing him when he fails, and it's implied Hunter was being regularly beaten by Belos as well. After Hunter figures out the truth, Belos gives up every pretense of caring about him, and nearly all of their interactions in subsequent episodes consist of Belos either actively tormenting or trying to kill him, or trying to hurt his friends through him.

He regards all of them as his own daughters which some do share his DNA and they in turn see him as a loving father. Even the ones who turned face. There's also a small example of Parental Incest since he implanted clone embryos of himself in the sisters in case his plans were to fail. Subaru and Ginga Nakajima, the adopted daughters of Genya and Quint, are revealed to be cyborgs themselves whose DNA are base on Quint. This also meant that they were sisters to The Numbers even before some of them were adopted into the Nakajima family. Subverted with Vivio Takamachi, the adopted daughter of both Nanoha and Fate. At first glance, she would seem to be their biological kid since she looks very similar to them. She's really just a clone of a long ago ruler and has zero blood relation to Nanoha and Fate.

By the end of the series, it's made deliberately unclear if the homunculi are twisted versions of the people they were meant to be truly Back from the Dead but Brainwashed and Crazy by Dante, or entirely new beings created by alchemy and reacting in different ways to the memories they inherited... but regardless, Izumi Curtis regards Wrath as her own son, fights to defend him even when he pulls a Faceâ€“Heel Turn, and adopts him after the TV show ends with him accepting her as his mommy in The Conqueror Of Shamballah. Sloth is vehement for most of her life that the Elrics are NOT her family and Ed and Al (Trisha's sons who created Sloth when trying to bring Trisha back) are NOT her sons, wanting to kill them to prove she's her own person, but whether that's true gets thrown into question in her last episode. Lastly, Envy is revealed to be the reincarnation of Dante's son with Hohenheim and has been the longest-serving Dragon to his "mother" for centuries (though we're shown a distinct absence of love on both sides). Envy is directly equated by the Big Bad to Ed and Al's (much older) half-brother due to sharing a father, and his torment of the Elric brothers is done out of bitter spite towards Hohenheim for abandoning him when he Came Back Wrong.

Later on, Biollente was dosed with Godzilla's mutated cells, transforming her into a kaiju that's part plant, part human, and part Godzilla. While the relationship was never clearified, most labelled Biollante as a "sister" to Godzilla.

While Supes never treated Kon as a son, he does see him as part of his family along with his adopted parents and his cousin. Lex, however, is treated as Kon's Archnemesis Dad as he tries to persuade the Boy of Steel to his side. Wonder Woman has Princess Diana whose original origin story has her being sculptured from clay by Queen Hippolyta and given life by the Greek Gods. There's also Donna Troy who in one of her many origin stories has her being the magical mirror clone of Diana to act as a friend. In the Silver Age, Nubia was Diana's black twin sister who was sculpted from clay as well.

Even though Lancelot had zero involvement in Mash creation, he still sees her as his daughter. Jeanne d'Arc Alter is an interesting case. She was created by Gilles de Rais with the use of the Holy Grail and molded as a twisted vision of the regular Jeanne d'Arc. When made into a playable Servant, the event has her trying to make a harem with Gilles playing the father archetype. Regular Jeanne also sees her as a little sister and thinks her retaliation on her to be cute. The ninja Assassin Kato Danzo is a robotic karakuri doll created by the Mage Koji Kashin and empowered by the first Kotarou Fuuma. She view both of them as her parents. Danzo also acted as the "mother" for the other Fuuma. Kotarou Fuuma the Fifth, the one that the protagonist can summon, outright calls her "Haha-ue (Honored Mother)". Downplayed with Sieg, a Homonculus that Siegfried implanted with his own heart to help him survive. Siegfried's wife, Kriemhild, recognizes the scent of her husband on Sieg and develops maternal instincts for him... through wanting Sieg to change his name to not match Siegfried and making sure he doesn't die a horrible death like her husband.

Artificial Family Member / int_b8c3cc30	comment	Young Justice (2010) Red Tornado considers his creator, T.O. Morrow, to be his "father" (even if he's a villain), and Morrow's other robots his siblings. Superboy is also in this show. Unlike in the comics, he does want Superman to be a father-figure to him, but Superman has a hard time dealing with this issue. They still eventually get the familial relationship, however, with Supes calling him "little brother" in Season 2 and beyond. The New God Metron, creator of the Mother Box and Father Box technology, eventually comes to think of Violet and Victor as his grandchildren because both of them are the result of his creations merging with humans. A very twisted example comes from Helga Jace. She believes that any metahumans created under her care are her children. So someone like Halo whose powers are alien in origin, she is willingly to abandon them because she didn't create them.

In canon, all the Artificial Humans are around the same age as their originals, so most fanworks tend to default to treating them as sibling-like relationships. Alternate Universe fanfiction can play more with the ages to make certain characters the biological parents, siblings, etc of the Artificial Humans. "Receipts" from MugetsuPipefox's Sea-Salt Family series touches on this trope applied to the canon universe, with "Leftovers" exploring it more in detail. Roxas and Xion need birth certificates and ultimately decide on the inelegant solution of claiming Sora and Kairi are their birth parents, since it's the closest thing to true... despite their "parents" looking the exact same age as them (in fairness, it's unlikely anyone's actually going to check since they're literally on different worlds). Nice Guy that he is, Sora worries that Roxas and Xion actually feel abandoned by him letting Lea and Isa raise them and tries in his own awkward way to bond with his new "kids," but...
