I don’t think logic applies to healing magic in DnD lol.
Comment on Anon casts a healing spell
Dabundis@lemmy.world 2 months agoEven with regenerate, what exactly are you regenerating? If the necessary neural pathways for the legs to work never developed in the first place, they couldn’t be “regenerated”. If this was your goal I think you might need to true polymorph a guy into “the same guy but his legs work”

Is logic not the role of the DM?

“You touch a creature and stimulate its natural healing ability.”
If stem cells could solve the issue, it’s possible. Turn it into a surgery, high DC medicine check, or an insane arcana check and a DM would probably let it play.

Simulacra, Clone, and a greater restoration should all be able to achieve the desired effect, provided a competent heal check.

I think it would probably require greater restoration.

You couldn’t “restore” something to a state it’s never been in. Cutting off the legs and then casting regenerate would “regenerate” the lost pair of paralyzed legs.
StrongHorseWeakNeigh@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Greater Restoration ends a “debilitating effect” pretty sure most DMs would allow a 5th level spell to cure paralysis.
