Is Cyclops worth it as a pretender god?

I like the arm thing. A silver arm of celtic origin springs to mind.

Nuadu Airgetlam!! Toooo cool!

Maybe an iron one available just to replace a missing limb (and perhaps boost strength +1 or so?) with a bit of Construction research, but a unique Version of silver that not only replaces the arm but gives more substantial (+2 to all) boosts to strength, attack, and defense?

That really is an interesting concept, just from the role-playing stance: being able to forge "replacement parts" for afflicated characters. They shouldn't be cheap, may come with problems (shock vulnerability for an iron arm?), but it would be a really cool bit of flavor.

Maybe they'd only be open to the Golem Cult, Ulm, and/or other such master smith types. That might even be the thing to make Ulm a bit more competitive, if they alone should have access to these wonders of smithcraft.

Ever think about adding the Gae Bulga? An awesome weapon, an unstoppable killer usuable only once per combat (since the body had to be cut away from the points to retrieve it) that has a geas upon it that leads to a Curse being placed on its wielder? Not quite the same as the real thing, but I can't think how to do the "somebody you will love will die" thing into game mechanics.
