From //The Improbable Island Contestant's Survival Guide, Season 2 Edition//.

====== Implants ======

Your implant is that big, thing built into [[lordbuckethead:you|your]] body in awkward places((Warranty void if seal is tampered with.  No user-serviceable parts inside.)). It provides you with additional capabilities - and you're definitely going to need those on the [[places:improbableisland|Island]].

Implants are free to all contestants, and can be removed at the contestant's request((Any resulting 'oozing holes' are strictly the contestant's fault.)). Get your implants at the [[places:outpost:building:implanthut|Implant Hut]] in any [[places:outpost|outpost]]! Just look for the hut that says "IMPLANTS."((In early Season Two, you had to choose an Implant at the start of your run. At some point, Implants were made opt-in.))

For a list of available implants, see [[items:implant|this handy list]]. [[items:implant#Newbie_Implant|Some implants]] are available at the outset,((read: to [[gameplay:concepts:newbie|newbies]])) while [[items:implant#More_Experienced_Player_Implants|other implants]] only become available later.
