A '''cybernetic''' replacement was any biomechanical device used to replace body parts ranging from internal organs to [[Limb/Legends|limbs]], which were usually lost or destroyed by [[Disease/Legends|disease]] or [[Dismemberment/Legends|dismemberment]]. Prosthetic replacements were connected to organic tissue via a complex synth-net neural interface, which provided the recipient with control and sensation. External replacements were often covered by [[Synthflesh/Legends|synthflesh]] to emulate actual organic tissue. An individual with cybernetic replacements was known as a [[Cyborg/Legends|cyborg]].

==Overview==
{{Quote|Prosthetics offer sensation and do everything flesh can. They're ideal substitutes in every way, except for requiring maintenance.|[[Valin Horn]]|<ref name="Fate of the Jedi: Outcast">''[[Fate of the Jedi: Outcast]]''</ref>}}
[[File:Ani01.png|thumb|left|250px|Darth Vader having prosthetic limbs installed by medical droids.]]
The galaxy had centuries of advanced technology at its disposal. Among them were the ability to replace and, for a price, modify and enhance the body. [[Cloning/Legends|Cloning]] was expensive and, given the horrors of the [[Clone Wars/Legends|Clone Wars]], illegal on most planets after the era. Some limited regeneration of limbs was considered acceptable but there were medical dangers involved with a science that had, for obvious reasons, not seen much development in later decades after the Clone Wars. For the majority of galactic citizens, cybernetic replacements were the cheap, effective, legal, and safe solution to unfortunate and severe physical injuries.

For those willing to make the sacrifice of flesh and expense, the body could be "upgraded" to allow for additional skills and abilities. Some were very innocuous, the [[Shepherd chip]] issued to military service members for instance. Others involved modifying the limbs and internal systems of the potential patient. As with everything in the galaxy, this came at a potential price, in credits and in the potential loss of self. Someone could easily go too far in attempting to be "more human than human."

When flesh failed&mdash;and sometimes even before that&mdash;cybernetics took over. Prosthetic limbs and replacement organs powered by batteries and controlled by electrical impulses were the low end of these procedures with sophisticated cybernetic hardware designed to improve or augment the recipient's body and mind at the high end of the scale.

Artificial organs could be implanted by [[Droid/Legends|droids]] such as the [[DD-13 medical assistant droid/Legends|DD-13 medical assistant droid]].<ref name="TNEGTD">''[[The New Essential Guide to Droids]]''</ref>

==Cybernetic types==
[[File:Telescopic_eye.jpg|thumb|right|180px|A [[Bothan/Legends|Bothan]] with a telescopic eye enhancement.]]

Two major kinds of cybernetic attachments existed in the galaxy: replacements and enhancements.

:'''Replacements''': Replacements were prosthetic or artificial units intended to replace lost limbs and damaged organs. Common replacements provided no benefits other than duplicating the essential functions of their biological counterparts, and they presented little strain on the beneficiary's overall well-being. In appearance, a cybernetic replacement could be recognizably artificial or virtually indistinguishable from the real thing. ''Example: [[Rianna Saren]]'s cybernetic [[Lekku/Legends|lekku]]''.

:'''Enhancements''': Enhancements bestowed new abilities or improved the recipient in some fashion. Enhancements included skeletal reinforcement, subcutaneous communications hardware, and weapon mounts. Some enhancements had visible external components, while others were hidden beneath the skin. Enhancements put more of a drain on the body's resources, and recipients frequently suffered debilitating physical or mental side effects. ''Example: [[General/Legends|General]] [[Grievous/Legends|Grievous]]' replacement body.''

{{Quote|An ''arm'' is as far as I'm willing to take it.|[[Anakin Skywalker/Legends|Anakin Skywalker]]|Suited}}
Many beings had prosthetic replacements throughout galactic history. Several beings were well known for employing unique or extensive prostheses.

*[[Darth Malak]], a [[Dark Lord of the Sith/Legends|Dark Lord of the Sith]] during the [[Galactic Republic/Legends|Old Republic]], had a prosthetic voice box that he used to speak, as well as a metallic jaw.

*[[Darth Plagueis/Legends|Darth Plagueis]] was forced to wear a [[Transpirator/Legends|transpirator]] mask after [[Attack on the Lodge of the Canted Circle|an attempt on his life]] by [[Maladian]] [[Assassin/Legends|assassins]] left him with a severed trachea and a large part of his jawbone missing in [[52 BBY/Legends|52 BBY]]. His [[Sith Master/Legends|master]], [[Darth Tenebrous/Legends|Darth Tenebrous]], had a similar mask.<ref name="SWDP">[[Darth Plagueis (novel)|''Darth Plagueis'']]</ref>

*[[Shahan Alama/Legends|Shahan Alama]] had a [[Battle droid/Legends|combat droid's]] arm grafted into his elbow.

*[[Rianna Saren]], a [[Twi'lek/Legends|Twi'lek]] mercenary who had one of her [[Lekku/Legends|lekku]] cut off, had a prosthetic replacement fitted.

*[[General/Legends|General]] [[Grievous/Legends|Grievous]] was forced to have almost his entire body replaced by cybernetic parts after a near-fatal shuttle crash. Though he retained his vital organs, such as his brain, eyes, heart and stomach, nearly everything else was cybernetic.

*[[Anakin Skywalker/Legends|Anakin Skywalker]] had a [[Mechno-arm/Legends|prosthetic arm]], which he was given after a duel with [[Count/Legends|Count]] [[Dooku/Legends|Dooku]] resulted in the loss of his arm. Some time later, the arm was replaced.

*[[Bounty hunter/Legends|Bounty hunter]] [[Cad Bane/Legends|Cad Bane]] had a pair of [[Breathing tube/Legends|cybernetic tubes]] connected to his skull to help him in breathing.

*[[Nek/Legends|Neks]] were enhanced with cybernetic implants for use as animal weapons during the wars that erupted on [[Cyborrea/Legends|Cyborrea]].

*[[Sith Lord/Legends|Sith Lord]] [[Darth Maul/Legends|Darth Maul]] had to wear a cybernetic apparatus instead of his legs which were cut off by [[Obi-Wan Kenobi/Legends|Obi-Wan Kenobi]] at the end of their [[Battle of Naboo/Legends|duel]] on [[Naboo/Legends|Naboo]]. Maul would later live on [[Lotho Minor/Legends|Lotho Minor]] in near-madness until he was found by his brother, [[Savage Opress/Legends|Savage Opress]], and taken back to [[Dathomir/Legends|Dathomir]] where [[Talzin/Legends|Mother Talzin]] created him a new pair of cybernetic legs. He would later gain a pair of human mechanical legs that returned him to his previous size thanks to [[Death Watch/Legends|Death Watch]] led by former [[Governor/Legends|Governor]] [[Pre Vizsla/Legends|Pre Vizsla]]. [[Savage Opress/Legends|Savage Opress]] also received a cybernetic left arm from [[Death Watch/Legends|Death Watch]].

*[[Clone trooper commander|Clone Commander]] [[CC-3636|Wolffe]] lost his right [[Eye/Legends|eye]] at the hands of [[Asajj Ventress/Legends|Asajj Ventress]] during the [[Battle of Khorm/Legends|Battle of Khorm]]. He later received a [[Color/Legends|silver]] prosthetic [[Eye/Legends|eye]] to replace the eye he lost.<ref name="Wolffe eye error">Though [[The Clone Wars 9|''The Clone Wars'' 9]] has Ventress injuring Wolffe's left eye, his later-implemented cybernetic eye in the episode "[[Grievous Intrigue]]" was shown to have replaced his right eye, not his left one that was injured in the comic. This error was rectified in ''In Service of the Republic''{{'s}} [[Star Wars: The Clone Wars: In Service of the Republic (TPB)|trade paperback collection]], which correctly showed that Wolffe's right eye was injured by Ventress and therefore required the cybernetic eye replacement.</ref>

[[File:Nexu-EotEBtR.png|thumb|right|250px|A cybernetically-enhanced [[Nexu/Legends|nexu]] stalks a spacer from the trees on [[Cholganna/Legends|Cholganna]].]]
*Certain [[Nexu/Legends|Nexu]] were enhanced with various cybernetics by [[Confederacy of Independent Systems/Legends|Separatist]] [[Arkanian/Legends|Arkanian]] scientist [[Cratala]] to guard the wreckage of the [[Sa Nalaor/Legends|''Sa Nalaor'']], which had crashed on [[Cholganna]] following the conclusion of the [[Clone Wars/Legends|Clone Wars]].

*A great deal of [[Anakin Skywalker/Legends|Darth Vader's]] ravaged body was supported by prosthetic replacements, although they had a comparatively low quality compared to others. Vader's artificial limbs were incredibly heavy and purposely badly made, frequently snagging on the inside of his suit.<ref name="darklord">''[[Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader]]''</ref> However, despite the low quality, his artificial limbs never tired or weakened.

*[[Inquisitorius/Legends|Inquisitor]] [[Valin Draco]] was fitted with extensive cybernetics, following his near-death when he was attacked by the [[Alderaanian Resistance]] beneath the [[Almas Academy]].

*[[Darth Krayt|A'Sharad Hett]] lost his right arm in his duel with [[Obi-Wan Kenobi/Legends|Obi-Wan Kenobi]] on Tatooine and received a prosthetic replacement. When he met the [[Yuuzhan Vong]], they restored his organic arm.

*[[Grand Moff/Legends|Grand Moff]] [[Trachta]] was kept alive by a cybernetic respiratory system, and his eyes were replaced with ocular cameras, including a third "eye" in the back of his head.

*[[Slak Sagar]] used a respiration system similar to [[Trachta]]'s.

*[[Rosh Penin]]'s arm was replaced by a prosthetic one after [[Alora (Dark Jedi)|Alora]] severed it.<ref name="jk:ja">''[[Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy]]''</ref>

*[[Luke Skywalker/Legends|Luke Skywalker]] was also fitted with a prosthetic hand after losing his own during [[Duel on Cloud City/Legends|a duel with]] [[Anakin Skywalker/Legends|his father]] on the planet [[Bespin/Legends|Bespin]]. This hand was replaced during his brief service to the resurrected [[Palpatine/Legends|Emperor]].<ref name="dark empire">''[[Star Wars: Dark Empire]]''</ref> The replacement was later severed during a duel with [[Lumiya]], so he was given yet another replacement prosthesis.<ref name="exile">''[[Legacy of the Force: Exile]]''</ref>

*[[Boba Fett/Legends|Boba Fett]]'s left lower leg was eaten by the [[Sarlacc/Legends|Sarlacc]]. He used a prosthetic replacement in later years after escaping from its belly.<ref name="DKM short stories">[[Daniel Keys Moran]]'s early Fett-centric short stories "[[A Barve Like That: The Tale of Boba Fett|A Barve Like That]]" and "[[The Last One Standing: The Tale of Boba Fett|The Last One Standing]]" both reference this; however, later-written post-[[4 ABY/Legends|4 ABY]] stories such as [[K. W. Jeter]]'s ''[[The Bounty Hunter Wars]]'' do not.</ref>

*[[Qorl]], a [[TIE/LN starfighter|TIE Fighter]] [[TIE pilot|pilot]] stationed on the first [[DS-1 Orbital Battle Station/Legends|Death Star]], who was shot down during the Battle of Yavin and shot down again by [[Luke Skywalker/Legends|Luke Skywalker]] after repairing his fighter. He had a broken left arm after his first crash. He was able to return to a [[Galactic Empire/Legends|Imperial]] loyal stronghold called the [[Second Imperium]] after [[Lowbacca]], [[Tenel Ka Djo|Tenel Ka]], [[Darth Caedus|Jacen Solo]], and [[Jaina Solo Fel|Jaina Solo]] repaired his fighter. The Second Imperium provided him a [[Droid/Legends|droid]] arm to replace his broken left arm.

*The [[Sith Lord/Legends|Sith Lady]] [[Lumiya]] also received extensive amounts of prosthesis after crashing her starfighter following a dogfight with Luke Skywalker. It was her claim that high levels of prosthesis dampened an individual's sensitivity to [[The Force/Legends|the Force]], though others, like Darth Plagueis, thought otherwise. This, she claimed, had stopped Darth Vader from attaining the full potential of a Sith Lord and was also stifled her attempts to achieve a mastery of the [[Dark side of the Force/Legends|dark side of the Force]].

*[[Lauli Wahlo/Legends|Lauli Wahlo]], who owned a [[Galaxy Noodles/Legends|noodle shop]], had a prosthetic [[Eye/Legends|eye]].

*[[Sith Saber]] [[Gavar Khai]] had his [[Cho sun/Legends|arm cut off]] at the forearm, in [[Duel at the Pool of Knowledge|battle]] with [[Luke Skywalker/Legends|Luke Skywalker]],<ref name="vortex">''[[Fate of the Jedi: Vortex]]''</ref> and replaced it with a cybernetic that was stronger and faster.<ref name="ascension">''[[Fate of the Jedi: Ascension]]''</ref>

*[[Imperial Knight]] [[master armorer]] [[Hogrum Chalk]] was maimed in an accident, forcing him to wear a suit of life-preserving cyborg armor, as well as cybernetics replacing the left side of his face and eye.

*Imperial Knight [[Azlyn Rae]] was fitted with first a full suit of life-preserving armor made by [[Rawk]], and later an artificial breather constructed by Hogrum Chalk, after her lungs were burned during an assassination attempt on [[Darth Krayt]].

==Alternatives to cybernetics==
[[File:DarthScorpionKing-SWE.png|thumb|left|200px|Darth Maul's prosthetic lower body resembled an arachnid.]]
This area of medical technology was spurred by the carnage of the [[Clone Wars/Legends|Clone Wars]], and the replacement of body parts with lifelike replicas reached a high level of refinement during the [[Galactic Civil War/Legends|Galactic Civil War]]. Not all prostheses, however, were designed with replicating the real body part in mind. The prosthetic arm of [[Arden Lyn]], a [[Teräs Käsi/Legends|Teräs Käsi]] master, was conspicuously disproportionate to her body and was in fact a modified [[Droid/Legends|droid]] arm. Similarly, Darth Maul, the former Sith apprentice to Darth Sidious, after narrowly surviving his fight with Obi-Wan Kenobi with his lower half lost, had created a crude substitute for his lower half via a prosthetic that more resembled an arachnid than an actual Dathomirian Nightbrother lower half, although it was later replaced with a pelvis and legs more closely resembling his original ones when he was recovered by his half-brother, [[Savage Opress/Legends|Savage Opress]].

Although prostheses were widely available, not all candidates accepted the replacement limbs offered to them. The [[Jedi/Legends|Jedi]] [[Tenel Ka Djo|Tenel Ka]] lost an arm during a practice [[Lightsaber/Legends|lightsaber]] duel with [[Darth Caedus|Jacen Solo]] but chose to shun the offer of a replacement, instead choosing to focus upon her own physical and Force-based abilities to compensate for the loss. [[Wolf Sazen]] also kept his arm from being replaced after [[Darth Nihl]] cut it off until later in [[137 ABY]].

Also, the arrival of the [[Yuuzhan Vong]], who wielded advanced biotechnology, opened new avenues for the replacement of lost limbs. After being captured by the Yuuzhan Vong, A'Sharad Hett's synthetic arm was replaced with a grown organic replacement. Decades later, Hett, now Darth Krayt, would order that a similarly organic replacement be given to Darth Nihl after the [[Nagai]] lost his right arm to [[Cade Skywalker]].
