Magical Artificial Limbs?

[Glistam]

Does Palladium have any prosthesis which are constructed and powered by magic? Not the techno-wizard bionics, and not magically grown parasites or symbiotes, but mechanical artificial limbs or organs which are magical, not technological in nature?

There's a TW Conversion Borg option in one of the Siege of Tolkeen books. Though I forget which one off the top of my head...

There are magic borg limbs in Rifts Canada just after the mamano headhunter class.

Just looked through the SoT books and there is no magic borg option.

However, yes I agree with you that there is one out there somewhere.
It is not in a rifter.

Great! Now I'm gonna hafta go searching for it...

You're probably thinking of Salkind the Metal Mage (SoT 6, p. 107), who is a one-of-a-kind character.

Rifter 13 necro-tech is as closes as you will get it is essentialy a dead limb attached to the character though this can be used to say give supernatural strength too. Their are some mechanical compinents

Looks like I did not have my copy handy for my "Tearing off the Veil of Bad Editing" list. And skipped over it. TY

So my above statement was only for 1-5 & aftermath.

Found it! Rifter 41, page 81, Full Conversion Techno-Wizard 'Borg.

While not magical, there is the Psionic powered limbs (arms) in Rifts Psycape. These limbs are auxiliary in nature (like the Borg's second set of arms), but could be adapted/reference as replacement limbs and to use PPE.

I don't think there are organs, but it could be done possibly with appropriate spells using the magic item creation examples found in PF2E.

The only reason I thought it was in a SoT book was because the Rifter article the TW conversion Borg is a SoT adventure in the Rifter - Dragon Juggernaut.

I think there was something about them in the Pantheons of the Megaverse. I believe they are made by the Asgardian Dwarves.

Rifter #59 had an excellent TW article, mostly about converting a TW for use in HU, a concept I'm SUPER excited for! It included a cool setting idea (a TW WW2 that sounded super cool, and I hope gets elaborated on in another article!) as well as a bunch of new TW gizmos. One of which was TW Prosthetics. They're like old prosthetic legs and arms, wood and articulated like a doll or puppet, strengthened with Ironwood spells and attached with a Carpet of Adhesion spell.

See Lord Frommalane, in the Rifts Sourcebook.

He is a TW creation whose mechanical limbs are not only magical, but living as well (he and his limbs even heal damage, and can in fact survive being damaged a significant amount of points below zero, much like Palladium Vampires). He has his own two arms that he was born with, plus an additional two tentacle extensions.

He is the creation of a Techno-Wizard named Doctor Articulus (current whereabouts in the Megaverse unknown).
