:Additionally, as long as you get a reference variable to the copy, you can pretty much do whatever to the copy without affecting the original from what I found by experimentation with this.  Changing the name doesnt affect the base copy or the original in the game from what I have seen (I created an activator to duplicate an NPC reference though).  Mileage might vary in a spell script since scripts sometimes have odd effects for no apparent reason.  I did a [[SetActorFullName]] and a [[RemoveAllItems]] on the copy with no effects on the original in the same room.  It essentially creates a new reference to the base object minus the dialogue and AI functions from what I can tell.  I still have no idea why it wipes those.
