Subject: | The way I think Bioware should work |

if Bioware is living tissue, cloned or no, shouldn't it have some measure
of self-healing? For example, Grimmy gets shot in the arm. The bullet
lodges itself in his muscle toner level 4. He goes to the street doc and
gets the bullet removed. Shouldn't the bioware heal itself, just as the
skin around the bullet wound will eventually heal?
Is that an incorrect assumption?
So, the way it'll work in my campaign is this: bioware heals along with
the character. So Grimmy rolls his healing test and has a time of two
weeks (I'm not looking at the book but that sounds reasonable to heal a
bullet wound). At the end of that time, the skin that was punctured has
healed, as has the muscle toner.
Notice I'm not talking about cyberware. I think that the way it's been
handled is OK.

In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror,
murder, bloodshed - they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the
Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly
love, five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did they
produce? The cuckoo clock!
