Anesthetics, first created at TL–5, are substances that induce insensitivity to sensation. They completely block feelings of pain, pressure and touch, as opposed to painkillers or analgesics, which specifically block pain. A wide variety of substances are used as anesthetics. Anesthetics have a cost of Cr100 per administration.
A local anesthetic can completely deaden a particular body part, such as a tooth or a limb. A general anesthetic will render the patient unconscious and physically insensitive. An overdose of anesthetics will stop vital functions such as breathing and the heart, resulting in death.
