A replicant is a bioengineered or biorobotic being created in the film Blade Runner, . The Nexus series – genetically designed by the Tyrell Corporation – are virtually identical to an adult human, but have superior strength, agility, and variable intelligence depending on the model. Because of their physical similarity to humans a replicant must be detected by its lack of emotional responses and empathy to questions posed in a Voight-Kampff test. A derogatory term for replicant is "skin-job."
