Losing Body Parts and Eyes: Permanent wounds thread

That really depends on the character. Most people in real life have a very hard time coping with it though, especially if it was their dominant hand. An adventurer would probably give up at that point if they didn't have a way to replace their lost limb and aren't abnormally dedicated

Depression meets the will to overcome. It's grueling, but can be rewarding

Story Time?

She suffered a pretty nasty microwave accident. Her skeleton basically rubberized as the bones "boiled from within" and her organs turned to mush. The limbs were lost later on for amputation need due to infection from where the accident took place.

Although she did survive, things only ended up getting worse for her.

>no bones
>lived

The wonders of super medical science!

What's gross to think about is her eyes could flop right out of her head when someone went to move her even slightly, what with "no bones"

How do things get worse from that? seems pretty damn awful to me...

What system did you play this character in?

It's not like her skeleton exploded from the accident, it just lost all consistency. It was later on, under medical procedure, that it had to be actually removed.

She became a cyborg heavily dependent on regular drugs to continue functioning, in a mostly lower tech setting. So for long periods while waiting for deliveries of said drugs, she was basically immobile. Plus some of the cybernetics were obvious so people were generally afraid or suspicious of her, unless she removed them but then was severely crippled.

Eventually she also got tricked into turning into a dragon similar to The Fly, and lost her mind through the transformation process.
