Originally, the Simulacra were created by a segment of the [[New Directive]] as a new physical form for them to occupy.<ref name=AsteliaryCraftersNote>2001/09 [[Keep Your Enemies Closer]] - [[Translated Asteliary Crafter's Note]]</ref> However, the Speaker of the New Directive and inner circle did not approve of this.<ref name=AsteliaryCraftersNote/> While [[The Crafter]] and its two colleagues were allowed to continue their experiments, it was told by the Speaker to never expect others to join it in its "horrifying debasement."<ref name=AsteliaryCraftersNote/>

[[Aerbax]] also created Simulacra, turning [[Harker]] - a farm hand in the [[Subterannean Farm]] at [[Martine's Retreat]] - into a simulacrum for unknown purposes.<ref>2003/07 [[A Swelling Tide]] - [[Harker's Journal]]</ref><ref>2003/07 [[A Swelling Tide]] - [[Harker's Orders]]</ref> When Aerbax began creating its [[Favored Sons]], it created a powerful Tusker Simulacrum which it used in an attempt to usurp Oolutanga's throne as the Tusker king.<ref>2007/07 [[Evolution]] - [[Bobo's Medicine]]</ref> Aerbax also created new powerful Paradox Simulacra to guard its [[Hidden Laboratory]] where it experimented on the creation of a prodigal Isparian.<ref>2007/11 [[Children of the Prodigal Lord]] - [[Aerbax's Prodigal Human]]</ref>

The virindi message shard translator, [[Diyas al-Yat]], is possibly a simulacrum. (See a screen shot of him removing his head at [http://www.thejackcat.com/ac/Culture/Dereth/Enemies6.htm Maggies].)
