... to be honest, considering that it doesn't functionally do anything - your maximum is still down, and any Initiation is going to increase your maximum anyhow - my question here would be 'why bother'?  Unless it's that 'gap-in-the-tooth' feeling that she reeeeeaally wants to stop having.

It's what the hole represents that hurts her more than the hole itself. If she had taken the 'ware willingly then it wouldn't be such a big deal, but it was forced on her against her will. How would you feel if you woke up dazed, nauseous, and suffering a BTL-induced endorphin crash in a strange, sterile room with a piece of metal screwed into your skull?

"What, this again??"

Like I said - if it's gap-in-the-tooth (which is what you're saying it is), then hey, go to.

Touche

Sorry I've been AWOL for a while. Internet got shut off at my place, so I have to hoof it to the library. No clue how long it'll be before I can afford to get it turned back on.

Ok, so I'm working on a test for the serum.

When dosed with the immortality serum, the target must make a  BOD+WIL [Physical] (18, 1 week) Extended Test. 2 or more net hits means the target suffers no side effects. Less than 2 net hits means the target suffers an abberant genetic mutation (similar to a changeling). A glitch results in the target suffering several genetic mutations. A critical glitch results in the target's death.

OR

BOD+WIL [Physical] (16) Test
0-1 net hits:  negative mutation
2-3 net hits:  nothing
4-5: random positive
6+ selected positive

Which one sounds better?
