+ | CYBERWARE | ||
+ | Usage: CYBERWARE | ||
+ | |||
+ | Cyberware is a catch all term for electronic and mechanical systems implemented to replace parts of | ||
+ | or enhance the metahuman body. Everything from increased strength and speed, to retractable razors | ||
+ | (a favorite of the street samurai) is possible. | ||
+ | |||
+ | However, there are limitations. First, all cyberware has two costs -- a monetary value, and an | ||
+ | essence cost. In Shadowrun the process of dehumanizing and losing tissue causes the wielder to lose | ||
+ | part of their 'life force', | ||
+ | directly related to what the essence cost of the cyberware is and your essence. | ||
+ | |||
+ | While cyberware can easily be removed and replaced at any time by a competent street doc, there is | ||
+ | no known method to reacquiring essence once lost. | ||
