One of my 5e players has lost a leg. Help me think of some creative mundane and magic prosthetics.
>>54826968
The player lost a leg?
>>54826968
Did they get hit by a car on the way to the game?
>>54826968
>One of my 5e players
>players
>not characters
I think you should leave that job to a doctor.
>>54826968
a prosthetic that's enchanted to look like a regular limb.
if someone who doesn't know that it's a prosthetic is looking at them as they take it off, it looks like they're tearing their own limb off, giving +something-or-other to intimidate.
>>54826968
A peg leg
>ring of regeneration
Mundane:
-Storing Leg
>hidden compartment for contraband
-Sword Leg
>pop-out blade for surprise attacks
-Adamantine Leg
>slower movement, but bonus to kicking in doors!
Magical:
-
-
-...Just regenerate the leg?
Other:
>basically any Graft leg from earlier supplements
>>54826968
Assuming PC, not player, a rifle-leg is just what's needed!~
The leg is a blue lion
>>54826989
I'm so glad that spastic faggot is gone
how about hacking a troll leg off and attaching it to the stump?
>>54827363
I'm not. Have you taken a look at the current tripfag situation? They used to at least be funny.
Back in 3.5 there was the half golem templete, basically it was a prostetic golem (flesh/clay/stone/iron) limb you would attach that would give you a bunch of stat changes at the cost that if you fucked up your will save when attaching it it would make you a construct and pull you to evil.
Probably too strong for 5e, but here it is anyway

A symbiote or parasite that acts as a leg but gives either a penalty or weird quirk, like -1 reflex when the leg is feeding, or new aversions to food the new limb sees as poison in your system.
A spirit makes a pact with you, acting as you limb in return for a divine promise. Maybe you need to complete some task, or maybe just change your life or worship in some way. Maybe a tree spirit insists you plant seeds wherever you go in exchange for a limb.
A magical weapon reforged into a magical prosthetic. Can act as a weapon so you're never unarmed, but it's heavy as fuck and swim/climb/balance takes a penalty.
An old witch offers you a curse: you can take the limbs of you fallen enemies, and merge them into your body, but if you keep that limb too long without replacing it the rest of your body will rot from the inside out, and leg cutting the limb off hurts like hell.
Kill A Motherfucking Dragon And Forge Its Scales Into A New Limb!!!
>short on options the party visits a local druid who had just begun to learn body healing magic on the side
>pc ends up getting a peg-leg with a real foot
Let him get one of those razor-prosthetics that Gazelle had in Kingsman.
>>54826968
What class is he playing? What race? Need some data.
A ranger/rouge/fighter could use a transforming crossbow leg using some homebrew and the rules for Warforged body weapons. A shorter character could use a force blasting wandleg for either kicks or rocket jumping around.
Personal suggestion would be to go for a peg hiding an everful flask of oil or greek fire. Use a fire cantrip or flint glove to zone out any opponents as a high mobility bard or warlock using areas of fire to further the disgusting power of a knock back eldrich blast specialist
Losing a limb in a high magic setting shouldn't be that big of a deal.
If a level 1 wizard can cast Mage Hand all day long, that's basically a weak tool-using limb.
Turn it into a magic item or a wand and yer good.
>>54826968
Tell him to suck it up and keep fighting. Pic related.
A true master wizard would seal a Ring of Regeneration in an elaborate puzzle leg for the unfortunate fellow. It would have a labyrinthine array of moving parts, catches, buttons, code-tumblers and riddles that guard the prize within.
Only those worthy of a leg shall have a leg.
>>54831407
Why the tripcode?
A leg that boosts seduction
>>54826968
Pull a Merle Highchurch
>Replaced with Soulwood. A Magical plant blessed by a Nature god. Saves them 3 times in a game from death, can be detatched and can move on its own. Disadvantage on acrobatics savign throw tho
>>54831616
You must be new. Thats Gropey, beloved tripfriend.
Could do magic tattoos that slide out to make a limb and have some alternate functions. Considered one as an arm replacement before that could also change into simple objects like a line to wrap around a target and try to drag them, or claws.
Reference Theros Ironfeld from Dragonlance.
Give them a prosthetic arm for a leg. Penalty to movement, but they can now tri wield
>>54833216
Give it a tower shield, do extreme sports
>>54831502
>Gets through the dungeon to find the Ring of Regeneration
>Trips off a trap as they're leaving and gets their hands cut off
>>54834081
That's OK, there's all kinds of other places you might fit a ring.a toering? an oversized nose-ring? an ugly earring?

Sure is fucking summer in here
>>54834540
Gropey is fine too. He's older than the summer, he's older than most of us.
>>54826968
Magic of eberron had examples. You cqn convert these to 5e
>>54826968
A wooden stick.
>>54826968
>not going for cheap Regenerate spell
Srly, what the fuck? unless you make a fully functional leg that is literally like his original leg for like 100 gp, Regenerate spell will be better
>>54835145
Regenerate requires a level 13 Caster in 5e, so unless your team are close friends with the High Priest of Pelor or the Great Druid of the Forbidden Forest, you're shit out of luck.
>>54834540
>Doesnt know Gropey.
>Tries to call other people summer.
Jesus pal, Gropey is a well known and appreciated tripfag who has contributed many quality threads over the years, ranging from his experience as an entertainer and clown to anecdotes about the time he got stalked by /cgl/ lolitas after he was sharing make up tips.
He is a cool dude, next you'll tell me you don't know who Scriptarius is.
>>54826968
Get killed and let a druid cast reincarnate.
>full body prosthetics
>>54835950
Or Clone
>>54835978
At these levels you could just cast/find someone to cast Regenerate...
>>54832011
amazing. She lost both her leg bat remained in such a perfect shape.
Story?
Or do you have more?
>>54827383
Nah, it'd probably infect them and turn them into a troll or something.
>>54835791
And what about cousin nicky? He set me up with my wife.
>>54834540
He has been here for a decade, and is a legitimately cool and knowledgable dude. Gtfo newfag.

Mundane? How about riffing on Ahab from "Moby Dick"? He had a peg leg carved from whale bone.
Give the PC a peg leg carved from dragon bone or the bones of some other large ferocious creature.
>>54826968
How you lose a leg within the ruleset? Normal heal spell should just make it grow back. It all hit points dude.
>>54828806
>Maybe a tree spirit insists you plant seeds wherever you go in exchange for a limb.

This made me laugh so hard.

These are the people who shit on 5e the most by the way.
Jesus fuck, all this autism. Someone should step up and put their foot down.
Back on track: Beware the one legged man at an ass kicking competition. This particular fella has been missing his leg since childhood, and is quite skilled without it. he actively baits people into going for his peg leg, and then beats them like harp seals.

Allow them to holster wands in it.

You're both toeing the line and need to step back.
>>54826968
The druid in the party i DM for druid crafted himself a plant hand after a basilisk confrontation
>>54836683
You and the people you're criticizing both stink of 12-year-old smug. Take a shower, put on some clean clothes, and don't come back until you're ready to discus what you all know OP actually meant.
Putz.
Just a wooden peg leg. At first it's about because of worsened speed, disadvantageous for agility, yada yada. But, if your player is creative, it isn't all bad. Stopping doors, hopping across small streams, a club with you wherever you go, a literal hollow leg to smuggle things with. It could be cool.
