Hey all, I'm running a Call of Cthulhu d20 edition campaign currently set 1944 USSR, and the team's mechanic got her leg blown off by machine gun fire last session. She's getting a prosthetic, and I wanted to workshop some options and see if anyone had any ideas?
Wooden leg- historically accurate to be sure, i'm thinking would cut her land speed in half, might give her some slight AC improvement, but wouldn't be a benefit really.
Wheelchairs- one character has already used a dieselpunk wheelchair with a 50 foot movement speed, but limited range and obviously weighing way too much.
Eldritch prosthetic, probably a tentacle. I would rule a permanent drain of 25% sanity because tentacle is part brain, and a speed reduction BUT a bonus to grappling, climbing, balancing and can hold things in it
What are your thoughts?
