Tech that was cut out when they became monks? Just a guess.

Removed cyberware I suppose. I think its against their belief/practice.

Removing cyberware I’d imagine not in the most official manner either.

I always wondered how rippers “undo” cyberware surgeries. Like installing mantis blades removes your whole forearm and replaces it with the blades and their housing, then a few minutes later you can just pop them off and you’re back to normal organic arms. Where does that muscle and organic matter come from and how does it so easily reattach to people. Same when you get eye implants, if I uninstall those where did the eyes come from?

In the monk tradition, scars are seen as badges of honor, earned through rigorous meditation, ascetic practices, and self-discipline.

Not all of them was monks when they started, and I’m sure removing cyberwear is part of their belief, so… it’s probably scars from removing cyberwear

there a quest about 2 monk adducted by malestrom, these 2 could adducted for experiment. If the monk know John Wick reincarnate as Silverhand who then reincarnate again in V head, they would all in cyberspycho to achieve that.

Idk if you know this yet but they have side missions which were interesting and one particular mission was heartbreaking. They explain why they’re like that

Well lore wise not all of them have the scars. But all the ones in NC do because a lot of them had their cyberware removed after converting because in their beliefs cyberware is wrong. Altering one’s flesh is seen as straying from the path. You can be a monk with chrome (kinda) and that’s totally allowed (again, kinda) but under their beliefs it’s MUCH harder for someone with chrome to achieve enlightenment so if you don’t rip your chrome you kinda are just helping others on their journey. You won’t reach the same ending bf they seek
