A French term translated in English as "The Terrible Children" that depicts a fictional genetic experiment which originates from the popular Sony Playstation game "Metal Gear Solid."
The experiment consisted of using genetic alteration and cloning from the cells of a late soldier known as Big Boss, whose genes were identified as the "ultimate soldiering genes." The project brought forth the creation of the game's protagonist, Solid Snake, as well as two antagonists, Liquid and Solidus Snake by injecting Big Boss' sperm cells into a surrogate mother and producing non-identical octuplets, all eight clones receiving different pedigrees. In addition to these figures, the experiment also brought forth the Genome Army many years later, who were regular soldiers injected with Big Boss' soldiering genes in order to alter their own to become more efficient. The Genome Army would later be dubbed as a failed experiment, as it was later discovered that all Genome Soldiers were slowly dying due to gene instability from the alteration of their own genes.
The term was dubbed as "The Terrible Children" due to both the social immorality in which it represented and the extremely high mortality rate in which the clones faced. 60% of the clones faced death with Solid, Solidus and Liquid Snake being the sole survivors of an original octuplet series, with five others intentionally aborted in order to enhance the growth of the remaining three fetuses.

While playing Metal Gear Solid I was completely baffled by the explanation of "Les Enfants Terribles."

Get the Les Enfants Terribles mug.She is a free-spirited kid at heart. Has a beautiful mind, and is very loyal to the lord. Is quite forgiving, but when she gets mad, she gets MAD. On occasion can get very livid. But she will always love you, and be kind to you no matter what. She is a very lonely being, who needs and wants a companion to grow old with. She is stern when raising children. But doesn't get violent with them. Has been through a lot in life, but still keeps her chin up, and people are inspired by that. She is a little too selfless. She is fairly good at taking care of herself. Is always quite stressed with money, but can still have a good time. Family is the biggest value and priority in her life, being 2nd after God. Has very stong faith, and hope. She is very pretty, and has a little weight on her but not much. If you get to be lucky enough and have her, you will be so ungrateful, and wonder how you were able to be blessed with such a beautiful person. Cherish, and Love her, she will always be worth it.
