Kind Of Silly Question

[oblivionsbane 714]

            I was thinking about the comical value of stealing someones kidney in LotC when it hit me. Could you take Elven organs and transplant them into a human to make them live longer? I do not know enough about any of this to even come to any conclusions. What I do know is that an organ from one descendant should be able to be transplanted into another descendant similarly to how it is done to people; except for maybe Kharajyr and Orcs (Orcs have weird physiology/anatomy I wouldn't trust.)

I am a billion percent certain that a human's immune system would flip ****.

I think that even attempting something like this would kill both involved. Is healing magic enough to sustain such a surgery? Since we clearly do not have the machinery capable of it.

Can you imagine what this would do to bandit RP if it were true? Minas or die? More like....

KIDNEY OR DIE!

            That is the obvious answer, but I would say the curses were more physical than supernatural. Which, actually, are basically intertwined with how Jistuma explained monk healing to me the other day. Apparently there is a sort of schematic inside the soul more or less that the monks just reform every time you die and pop your soul into it. So if elves have a kidney that is meant to last 1000+ years then the humans would receive a kidney that would last just as long. However, and this is actually an interesting thought, since that kidney was not a part of your body and you accepted having it done then the next time you died and came back at the monks you would probably be missing a kidney altogether until you put another one in.

In real life human bodies will reject organs from other humans if they're not compatible, I don't think they would be able to accept organs from a completely different race/species. And even if it did work it certainly wouldn't make humans live any longer.
