He doesn't name the Daodan explicitly during his encounter with Mai, but his allusions bear close resemblance with the descriptions of the transformation process occurring in {{C12}} and {{C13}}.

Kerr's talk goes here
Kerr says that the transformation cannot change the symbiont's personality but vice versa. He claims the final form (Imago stage) as an expression of the person's "true nature" (which shall mean the unaltered personality).

===Chrysalis removal===
===Chrysalis removal===
Second {{C12}} terminal goes here.
TCTF-own researchers failed to remove Daodan tissue by invasive and exploratory surgery. They name two reasons:
# The dadoan cells are actually replacements for their originals, so the researcher cannot rip them out without having compatible tissue as new replacements.
# The Daodan tries to replace damaged tissue almost instantly, that makes a mechanical removal difficult.
 
Other ideas are:
# to overload the Daodan's recuperative capacity but which is supposed of having a fatal effect to the host also
# or to inject cell clusters which would attack the Daodan cells only. (It's unclear how the Daodan could react to this threat.)
See [[Quotes/Consoles#Chrysalis_Removal|Chapter 12 : SINS OF THE FATHER (consoles)]]

Mutant muro goes here

The Daodan concept is easily the most original and powerful in all of Oni. It neatly maps onto society, technology, personality etc, and it can also be considered on its own, as an appealing sci-fi concept and the embodiment of not-so trivial dilemmas (ethical and other).
