All true kin can choose to start with one of 16 cybernetics to start. The player will have 2 license points to use, even if they choose a 1 credit cybernetic. However, if they choose no starting cybernetic, they will lose those points in exchange for +1 [[toughness]]. The 16th cybernetic depends on the arcology they are in. The arcology-specific cybernetic implants ({{favilink|nocturnal apex}}, {{favilink|cherubic visage}}, and {{favilink|air current microsensor}}) are far more rare to find randomly during a playthrough than other cybernetics, so it is generally advisable to take them at character creation if a player wants them. | All true kin can choose to start with one of 16 cybernetics to start.
