This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Even with regenerate, what exactly are you regenerating? If the necessary neural pathways for the legs to work never developed in the first place, they couldn't be "regenerated". If this was your goal I think you might need to true polymorph a guy into "the same guy but his legs work"

I think it would probably require greater restoration.

Also, regenerate would definitely work you would just have to cut his legs off first.

You couldn't "restore" something to a state it's never been in. Cutting off the legs and then casting regenerate would "regenerate" the lost pair of paralyzed legs.

Greater Restoration ends a "debilitating effect" pretty sure most DMs would allow a 5th level spell to cure paralysis.

"Your nerves are forged anew, and your legs are as strong as a marathon runner's. Unfortunately you never learned to walk, much less run. Good luck."
