#story_event #Spidicules Strange possibilities are proffered to those bold enough to gamble with their own flesh. Nominate a survivor to be the patient and [[#Operate!]] If any survivor has the [[Silk Surgeon]] secret fighting art, you may choose the 10 result without rolling. ### Operate! | 1d10 | Result | | ----- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | 1 - 2 | The patient has a horrible reaction to the surgery! They suffer the dismembered arm severe injury and must skip the next hunt. | | 3 - 4 | The patient is wrapped in living Silk. Archive all Silk resources in the settlement. For each resource lost, the survivor gains a -1 Evasion token and adds 1 armour to all hit locations if they depart this year. | | 5 - 6 | Neurotoxic venom treatment. The patient gains the Unconscious Fighter fighting art and a random disorder. | | 7 - 9 | Silk stitches are threaded in just the right place. You may spend 1 Silk resource to remove a permanent injury from the survivor. | | 10 | Inspiration strikes, and the surgeon's fingers suddenly appear to have a mind of their own! The nominated survivor rolls on Radical Procedure.<br><br>**Condition**:<br>If you rolled **10**, if any survivor in the settlement has the [[Silk Surgeon]] secret fighting art, that survivor collects a finger as payment and increases their **Silk Surgeon** level by 1. The nominated survivor rolls on the [[#Radical Procedure]]. | ### Radical Procedure Onlookers watch in awe as needles thread silk across the survivor like an artist's brush on a canvas. The nominated survivor gains a random disorder and rolls a hit location dice. If the settlement has a Silk Surgeon, instead roll dice equal to the level of their secret fighting art and choose **one.** | Location | Result | | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Head | Gain +1 permanent accuracy. Remove all permanent head injuries other than [[head\|blind]]. Lose all understanding. | | Body | Heart implant. Gain +4 permanent strength and -4 permanent luck. Set your Hunt XP to 14.
