A wooden hand is an artificial body part that acts as a replacement for a pawn's natural hand. A medieval prosthetic, wooden hands have a part efficiency of 60%, therefore one wooden hand on an otherwise healthy pawn provides 80% manipulation, while having two wooden hands provides 60% manipulation.

Acquisition

Unlike most other prostheses, wooden hands don't have a separate item form and the materials require no previous work to turn into a prosthesis before installation. Instead, when ordering a surgical operation on a pawn,  1 Wood,  2 Herbal medicines is consumed and the wooden hand is added to the pawn. Notably, when removed the wooden hand turns back into a wooden log.

Summary

Body part

Wooden hands replace the user's organic hand, including all fingers. They are universal and can be installed on either the left or right. The wooden hand has a part efficiency of 60%. This partially replaces the functionality of a normal hand - when coupled with the hand body part having a Manipulation importance of 50%, it results in restoring 25% manipulation per missing hand replaced, or a loss of 25% when replacing a healthy hand. Manipulation, in turn, affects a great many stats. For a full list of affected stats, see Manipulation.

Installation

Installing the part requires 1,500 ticks (25 secs) of work, ?x medicine of ?? quality or better, and a Medical skill of 3.

Removing the part requires 2,000 ticks (33.33 secs) of work, 1x medicine of herbal quality or better, and has no Medical skill requirements.

If the operation fails, the wood will be destroyed.

Analysis

Terrible, but better than no hand, or a hand missing 4 fingers. If only the hand is missing, it better to use this than a full prosthetic arm. A wooden hand is useful when combined with a power claw for a ghoul, as the hand removes a melee option without lowering move speed, so that attacks are more likely to be power claw.
