If you had to choose the chief for surgery, who would it be, a painboy or haemonculus? No choose not to choose either.

Damn...
I would hate to be in this situation...
Haemonculus... at least he won't add anything or at least not as much.

**thunderingjove**

Dude, I just read the haemonculi fluff, these guys literally have their hearts in their sleeves.

Having read Nightbringer of the ultrmarines omni, I'd go for the Haemonculus. They may be the most evil sadists imaginable, but the Dark Eldar medical science seems pretty immense.

They strip out one of the characters nervous system and replace it with a new one...

Ork. He knows what he is doing (As he was born with the Know-Whats) and he can give me 3 extra arms and a gatling gun for a foot.

**thunderingjove**

Which on washes his hands?

**woodbok**

haemonculus, easy.

Haemonculus. Ork surgery only works due to the hardiness of the ork physiology, so choosing a painboy is like choosing to be butchered and killed.

With a Haemonculus at least you have a chance that he decides to give you super powers.

I think I'd trust the Haemy on the hope that he'd actually spare me the pain... as if. The Painboy would chop off the wrong limb and give me a shooty one instead

That and, no anesthetic :S

**asimo77**

Haemonculus fo sho. They actually have great medical knowledge...they just use it to inflict as much pain as possible.

**thunderingjove**

My big worry about the Haemonculus route is the following situation:

I'm just drugged enough not to risk death by pain, but otherwise conscious to a room of weirdos masterbating over me as they figure out new wackiness to inflict.
