So, here's a question, do you think a potion/extract mix that could regenerate a human/elf/dwarf/player character's body would be a good thing to add to the game? Before making your decision, it is implied that this potion/extract mix would be very difficult to produce, or perhaps even impossible depending on worldgen, and would incapacitate your character for a great length of time while they regenerated their body.

Yeah, this is for FTN, I'm trying to finalize 1.4, but I feel like I could still put in a bit more stuff before uploading it.

I would like a druid skill, on early levels you can make useless potions but once you reach higher levels, you can make things like the one you said. That's my bet

[Bumber]

So long as it's inferior to werebeast regeneration then I don't see why not. Make it take several days and give random paralysis every now and then.

[Xangi]

That druidy thing isn't too possible, but the ideal length of a healing "coma" would be about one week. There isn't a way to make it less effective though, just in the time and materials required

[Loud Whispers]

Why can't we just have doctors actually do something for once instead of potions?

Upon drinking - Regeneration of lost limbs. Side effects include total paralysis (not long enough to suffocate you), disfiguration (make me bleed), incredible pain, fever, necrosis of the liver (because come on), loss of control in many bodily functions and other undocumented effects (I ran out of ideas)

1st month - Total regeneration of limbs (or at least arms). Numbness subsides. Chronic vomiting starts now. Nose also bleeds.

2nd month - Recovery of organ functions. Liver is a sack of necrotic tissue. Body starts to swell enough to cause pus to pour out. Vomiting becomes intense. Body bleeds on all orifices (but not enough to kill you).

3rd month - You become a husk.

or something like that maybe.

I would say yes, but at a price: either statloss or random chance of side effects.

[Xantalos]

I'll go with this as good, but just with the coma please. FTN is brutal enough already.

Well, that's the version I got working so far. Bad part is, it made all my arena subjects go insane. Gotta do a real world test though, it seems that it might just be from sleep deprivation, since being knocked out doesn't count as sleep.

NO_SLEEP?

at OP, i would say adventure mode with danger of being amputated is fine as is. Players must make a choice between becoming a werebeast or vampire. Werebeasts can regenerate limbs once a month and do not age. Vampires are much stronger and in addition to not aging, do not have any needs, are not affected by pain, nausea, or stunning; but cannot regenerate lost limbs.
