I want to get moving on actually creating and posting the rest of the undead organ project that is in my mind, but I have been stalled out for motivation for a while, and I thought it would help to know what people are interested in (one of the previous organs got NO comments at all).
Here is what I have created so far:
Floating Lungs (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=62115) - (based around the Shout spell). Feel free to suggest a better name...
Hopping Stomach (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?p=3301315) - Spits acid.
Gut Snake (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3295643&postcount=8) - Undead intestines that fight with constriction, filth, and odor.
Empty Skin (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=44544) - Macabre, but not always aggressive. Freak your characters/players out without a single die rolled... Intelligent servants for the necromancer just starting to come into his true power.
Dark Hearts (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=64187) - Literally pulsing with negative energy these repair the undead near them, and damage the living. Comment HERE (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26636&page=16).
So, ask questions if any, then please vote for one of the following(and give opinions on them and/or the project in general):
Skulking Bladder - Sneaks in and poisons wells, cisterns, food-stores etc. or does assassinations by more intensely poisoning specific food items. They are intelligent but mono-focused. Little to no direct combat skill. Poison has SR against detection or removal.
Rolling Eyeball - Mindless. no combat ability unless you took it from something with a gaze attack or eye-rays, in which case it gets a greatly reduced version of the original attack. Follows programmed course of movement, then returns to master and reports back via Silent Image.
Slithering Spinal Cord - Mindless. Paralysis by touch, slow and low HD. May strangle paralyzed creatures.
Fat Glob - Large or bigger Mindless and Ooze-like. Partial actions only. Immune to Piercing, Slashing, Cold, and Sonic. Causes fatigue with its slam attack in lieu of a true ooze's stereotypical acid damage. Makes for an undead ship that is extremely hard to sink (mast and keel inserted into body before it was animated..
Creeping Liver - Mindless and slow speed. No damage but Poison via melee touch attack.
Later on I might do Brains (Radiate aura of stupidity that deals intelligence damage and sucks away arcane spells and power points), Pancrei(sp?), adrenal glands(buff other undead), and Tonsils (Disease by Touch), but for various reasons I am probably not going to do any of these until most or all of the above are done.
Will be doing at least 2 spells with standard action (full-round?) casting times that can be used on a corpse regardless of time of day, and without any bulky material components. The first one will create all the more combat oriented organ undead you could get out of that corpse, and the highest level on will create all of them regardless of combat usability. No skill checks will be involved.
