Ah-ha! Yes, that's another addendum - if someone has lost a leg permanently (i.e., they have it as a disadvantage) then you use that to restore them. It's up to the GM if he wants to charge character points for the miraculous healing.

However, I'm also trying to sell them on this magic system and GURPS in general, so I probably won't be doing that.
No, don't be too mean. But remember, them using magic means they get to encounter hostile mages, anti-magic zones, etc. some time. If you are too lenient they'll start using magic to fix every problem...sort of like the guy with the only tool in his tool box being a hammer seeing every issue as a nail.

Glad I could help!
