So I'm curious - if a character has a limb blown off due to a critical success by an opponent, massive explosion etc. what options do they have to restore them? Can a spell just go poof you've got both legs back, do they need to be vat grown, do they need to be replaced...?
Thanks! With a sweep of his... Hat |

Spells only heal restorable wounds, they won't regenerate lost limbs.

Just hack off some other guy's arm, get a needle and thread and some anti-rejection drugs and sew it on. Do it yourself in a motel bathroom with a magnifying glass, a button replacement kit, and no anesthetics to be even more badass.

You could potentially use Shapechange.

One of the very few comedies I enjoy.
'There are ways of telling if she is a witch' 'There are?' Great movie. |

If she weighs as much as a duck, then she's made of wood, and she's a witch?

great form Plant Spirit with regeneration?
arguably maybe the drug that grants you regeneration power too . . but both options are probably not good for the cybered folks . . but for those replacing those fleshy bits with metals is most likely better anyway *g* |

My favorite was always the "second hand limb" option from the SR1-3 rulebooks. Don't know if they kept it for SR4. But it's very Neuromancer, getting someone's used semi-diseased limb.

Hat Augmentation page 88, Augmented Healing in the Genetech section. Regrows lost limbs and organs, including the spine. Nice and expensive, but you get your meat back, good as new. Suggests about 2 months of soaking in a Kolto tank to regrow a full limb. |
