Cyborg/Legends



A cyborg was a cybernetic organism, that is, a living organism with mechanical prosthetics. These prosthetics usually serve one or more of three purposes:


 * 1) Life support, often due to injuries sustained. Examples of this were Darth Vader and General Grievous.
 * 2) Replacements for parts that were lost, though they may not be required for life itself. An example of this was the prosthetic hand used by Luke Skywalker, as well the mechanical arm used by Anakin Skywalker.
 * 3) To enhance one's abilities, as in the case of Lobot. General Grievous' abilities were also significantly enhanced by his prosthetics, though his main reason for becoming a cyborg was that he had sustained massive injuries and would have died otherwise.

Cyborg also referred to creatures that were half-organic and half-droid. They were generally regarded as "soulless abominations".
