Hey guys and gals. Does anyone know the price in nuyen and essence for purely aesthetic body modifications in 5th edition?
 Like horns or tusks or extreme plastic surgery?

Would have to go back to 4th for that. Augmentation page 60 has the table and pages 61+62 have descriptions. I can't seem to find horns though I swear I saw them somewhere.

Edit- Fangs (tusks) and horns are on page 35 of Augmentation.

Thanks much! I assume they'll translate well enough to 5e.

I love that Penile Implant has capacity 1. Sadly, not enough for a Shock Hand or something....

Actually you're mistaken.  The number is in brackets, so [1] means it only takes up 1 capacity if you, say...  Put it in your cybernetic arm.  Or a pair of breasts on your cyberskull for [2].

Jeeze.  It would almost sound stupid until you realize we're talking about an immortal elf clown sword fighting a dragon ghost in a mall.

I can't decide if installing a robo-penis in your cyber-arm or a weapon in your robo-peen is more horrifying. So...ick....

Does add a new dimension to the phrase about going off half cocked. ;)
Do you believe in a greater WIRELESS, an Invisible(WiFi) All Seeing(detecting those connected- at least if within 100'), All Knowing(all online data) Presence that we can draw upon for Wisdom(downloads & updates), Strength (wifi boni) and Comfort (porn) or do you turn your back on it  (Go Offline)?

Heh...Robo-penis with a concealed smuggling compartment.  On rare occasions you would still have to worry about being searched, but very rarely.  Just don't get cocky.

The number in brackets is per item. So with cyberware with capacity >1, you could potentially install multiple [1] components. I'll just let that sink in for a while....
