|QuestionText=So, Patho-Gen wants to test native abilities, and they also want to test Katalyth exposure. Would these by chance ever happen in the same location? Would Gale have the chance to pull his [https://alogos.dreamwidth.org/1341.html?thread=621373#cmt621373 <b>absorbing Katalyth to cast a big spell</b>] bullshit? If he managed to cause some big damage, what sort of result will that get him?<br><br>This may be answered somewhere else but I couldn't find it: could the carnivora+imprint healing be able to <b>regrow lost body parts</b>, or just rapidly heal the wounds (e.g. if a finger gets chopped off, is it coming back, or will there just be a healed stump? or is it choose your own adventure horrors?).<div class="edittime"><em>Edited (bolding is helpful in the main body so I thought I'd use it in asking questions too... but I messed up the code whoops) <span class="datetime"><span class="comment-date-text"> </span> <span title="">2025-10-07 02:30 pm (local)</span></span></em></div>

|AnswerText=While native ability testing would never take place in the Katalyth room itself, it's not impossible that some (smaller) amount of Katalyth might be brought in to the former. It's also possible that they could do this for Gale, out of some awareness of his ability to absorb magic... or just to see how his magic would react to it. So he could probably cause a big explosion this way (before being quickly shut down). That's too much of a demonstration... though they'll be interested in how he corrupts afterward. But it's possible that he could kill someone/damage the room itself, and be treated a lot more brusquely/cautiously afterward. <br><br>Carnivora (particularly while bolstered with imprints) can regrow some lost parts. It'll take some time (no one's restoring limbs in the heat of battle), and is much slower than healing simple cuts (or even deep ones). It's not perfect though, and the more that's missing, the more likely that it just... stops part way. Closes the wound, calls the construction of half a finger good enough. Or maybe it manages the whole thing! So yes, it's a choose-your-own-stump adventure.
