BIOWARE CULTURED

Usage: BIOWARE

Bioware consists of organic vat grown replacement parts that can be implanted into a subject with a
wide variety of results. Bioware does not have an essence cost like CYBERWARE. All metahumans can 
take 3 + essence points of bioware without ill effect. However, once it begins to exceed your 
ESSENCE INDEX you suffer severe penalties, such as slower healing, less overflow and lower 
resistance to drugs and pathogens.

Installing bioware also lowers your magic directly by half it's rating, see BIOWARE INDEX for more
details.

Bioware comes in two grades, basic bioware which is a generic implant, and cultured bioware, which
is tailor-made for the intended recipient, resulting in a lower Bioware Index cost.
