Q: ''Will TL9 cybernetic enhancements be allowed?''


A: I'm inclined to allow them.  The cost would be deducted from your starting money ($30,000 is the standard at TL9), and the only cybernetic enhancements I would want open to PCs would be LC4.  If you can supply a reason for higher LC enhancements, I'm open to it.  I think that any radical alterations to your appearance would be antithetical to the flavor of the game, but subtle modifications are fine.  For instance, if you were a Cirque du Soleil performer prior to applying for the Brighter Future Program, it would make sense that you have something like a Gyrobalance.  I think up to two major procedures, one major and two minor procedures, or four minor procedures is fine.  If you started as a Wealthy person, you could afford one radical procedure.  If there are any of those that are TL9 and LC4 and that don't leave you looking like a Borg, I suppose you could take them.

Q: Will TL9 cybernetic enhancements be allowed?

A: I'm inclined to allow them. The cost would be deducted from your starting money ($30,000 is the standard at TL9), and the only cybernetic enhancements I would want open to PCs would be LC4. If you can supply a reason for higher LC enhancements, I'm open to it. I think that any radical alterations to your appearance would be antithetical to the flavor of the game, but subtle modifications are fine. For instance, if you were a Cirque du Soleil performer prior to applying for the Brighter Future Program, it would make sense that you have something like a Gyrobalance. I think up to two major procedures, one major and two minor procedures, or four minor procedures is fine. If you started as a Wealthy person, you could afford one radical procedure. If there are any of those that are TL9 and LC4 and that don't leave you looking like a Borg, I suppose you could take them.
