No one put Leonization in there eh? That would be top of my list:

• Leonization (thanks for 20 years back)
• Dietware
• Platlet Factories
• Datajack
• enahnced articulation (good call on the joint damage)
• clean metabolism

Are you kidding me? Leonization for me means I'm back in grade school.

Do you REALLY want to go through Puberty again?

Doesn't Leonization set your age to 20, rather than reduce your age by a set ammount?

Something like that, but there are a few of us around here that aren't out of our 20's yet.

Well, it would be of more benefit to me then

That and Knowledge: Tax Havens.

But I think that would be beneficial for anyone.

Do you mean physically out of your 20's, or mentally? Cos I act like an 8 year old in RL. The idea of me becoming mature is as alien to me as spellcasting.

Physically, of course. Such a silly question!

I'm 29, going on ten.

the saying goes:"you're as old as you feel" . . NOW GET OFFA MY LAWN!

Hmmmm... Leonization. I hadn't thought of that. Back at that age, knowing what I know now. Hmmm...

Leonization...hmm...sure I might do that.

I wouldn't do Leonization because my skin is already as smooth as a babys butt. Also I work for the CIA and drive a rocket car. Most of the implants in shadowrun are primitive compared to my the top-secret injection they gave me when I became a super-spy, to fight nazis. My IQ is 300 and I once killed a goat with my mind.

It bears mentioning that the flesh of the goat is very tender and flavorful when killed in this manner.

That's telekinesis, Doc.

He has the power...to move you.

I'm not sure if the original goat killing joke was in reference to Tenacious D quite as much as it was to remote viewers and "The Men Who State at Goats".

Plus, Telekinesis was the power to kill a yak from 200 yards away..... WITH MIND BULLETS!

What would I get? Hm. Is there any 'ware that could correct this? 'Cause really, that's my biggest complaint right now. Anything else would be gravy.

It was in reference to a number of things including an earlier post in this very thread.

Move-By-Wire/ReflexBoosters/Reaction Enhancements.
Maybe Boneworks.

Yeah, I'm sure bone lacing or bone density could clear that right up.

As for leonization: The process would almost take longer than I would gain back if it just sets your age to 20

And Mr. 300 IQ doesn't know how to form the possessive of baby

Here's one that slipped by: An Internal Release Chemical Gland with Zero. Say goodbye to allergies forever.

I'd want Cybereyes, Cyberears, an Internal Comlink and an Internal Sim Module modified for Hot Sim. Light me up brainfire. Alls I need is the 'Trix and I'm happy.

Also, I'd have a running sound track wherever I went.

I'd go jar head and get me some nifty body for multiple purposes. Its as close as I'd get to shapeshifing a personal dream of mine. That's if magic isn't allowed then I'm a mystic adept full stop. Though I might for cyber eyes and/or some nano-hives any way. Nano tech is pertty awesome.

Thing is? Scoliosis sort of requires the bracing. Maybe gene treatment to clear that up, then kevlar bone lacing?

There are rules for spinal replacement ("research"). :/ A lot of us are talking about superhuman or convenience boosts, but ameliorating major issues is something that 'ware should also (perhaps 'primarily') be able to do.

Thirty Second Artbomb- I'd call fixing scoliosis a type of cosmetic surgery. The rules allow the more serious cosmetic surgeries to do some wild stuff.

I'd mainly go for the mnemonic enhancer. Would be a big help as I get older and move into a world of ever-accelerating technology. Long term survival would probably also require some gene therapy (assuming they can fix Marfan's syndrome) and replacing most most my aorta. Expanded digestion and would also be nice- I have a lot of stomach upset. Cyber-eyes, maybe- there's likely less invasive ways to fix my vision, but the other features (namely recording, AR, flare, and low light) would be pretty cool. Ears samewise- video recording's not much good without sound, and I know my hearing is decent for my age, but could be better. Both would make sleeping much easier (AR darkness and silence...)

Yeah, fair enough. I mean, once that was out of the way? Cybereyes and -ears with the works, math SPU, rating 2 enecephalon, commlink, hotsim, and maybe a control rig. And possibly cyberlegs. Maybe. Depends on if my knees give out entirely.

Leonization is among the lifestyle stuff I'd get if there was no essence. Though in 20 years I might not give a crap about essence and still want the fountain of youth. Potential eternal life is about the only thing in trans-humanism that I am interested in generally. Normally I think it is freaking lame and a pox on shadowruns cyberpunk.

At least it isn't true immortality. That gets boring after a while.
It was only after Ocher* lost his immortality that he really learned what it was like to be alive.

*A basilisk from the Dragoncharm trilogy. Right up until the ritual that would† have killed all 6 of them for good (by transferring the immortality to another creature) they'd do things like dive-bombing planets in the hopes that they wouldn't survive.

†Ocher survived because his brothers decided that "death wasn't good enough for him" due to some of his actions (they considered him a traitor). He still lost his immortality, but didn't die with the rest of them.

I dunno: the march of medical science is wholly appropriate to cyberpunk. It's just that the 'punk' characters shouldn't ever have access to it (except as a secret medical research backstory, naturally).
