    A swelling, malformed heap of slime creeps slowly forward, giving of an air of hunger & malevolence. Blister-like growths pepper its blotchy exterior, in between a lattice of throbbing veins.

    Quite literally an ambulatory tumor, this strange being is a result of the bizarre regenerative properties of the Flesh Plane. Once it was merely a little clump of Cell Blocks (see below) reproducing out of control, the healing powers present on this plane (when combined with the mild Law-Alignment) organized the lump & gave it mobility. Now able to travel in search of food to sustain itself, this creature seeks to perpetuate its existence by multiplying; it will destroy & consume anything that gets in its way.

    A Malignant Cancerebrum is about 3’ across & weighs about 35 pounds. Being mindless, it speaks no language.

    • Draining Ray (Su): once per round, a Cancerebrum can emit a 20’ cone of draining light from one of its psuedopods; all living creatures struck by this injurious beam must succeed a Fortitude save (DC16) or suffer 1 point of Constitution damage; every point of damage successful dealt gives the Cancerebrum 1 temporary hit point

    • Rapid Growth (Ex): a Cancerebrum gains 1 Hit Die every hour, until it reaches 10 Hit Die, at which point it will Split

    • Split (Ex): slashing & piercing weapons deal no damage to a Cancerebrum; instead the creature splits into 2 identical Cancerebrums, each with ½ of the original’s current hit points (rounded down); a Cancerebrum with 10HP or less cannot be further split and dies if reduced to 0HP; a Cancerebrum will also split on its own if it reaches its maximum HD (10)

    This cube of translucent gel quivers with a life of its own. Inside, dozens of opaque motes float though the viscous substance, clustering around a central nucleus.

    These sessile, mindless creatures make up the vast majority of the Flesh Plane’s biota, as well as nearly all of the solid material available on the plane. Cell Blocks are as much objects as they are beings, but they still need to be fed & cared for; it is for this reason that many of the phenomena seen on the Flesh Plane exist. Literally the building blocks that make up the plane-body, these little cubes of soft tissue are everywhere on this plane; they are the floors, the walls, the ceilings, the tunnels. All are made of Cell Blocks, & the Cell Blocks are nearly everything here.

    A typical 5’ wall or floor section of Cell Blocks has about 100 of the creatures for every 6” of thickness (although only 50% of a wall/floor need be killed before a section is considered destroyed).

    Unlike most other types of creatures native to the Elemental Plane of Flesh, Cell Blocks do not have Fast Healing or Regeneration, & instead must rely on normal healing rates, as well as the healing talents of other beings. Also, since they are immobile, they depend entirely on outside maintenance for fuel, waste removal, protection, et cetera.

    Cell Blocks are as diverse as they are numerous, & myriad varieties exist: some are pink, some are yellow, some are clear, some are opaque, some are flat, some are round, some are hard (Hardness Χ2), & some are soft (Hardness 0). No two Cell Blocks are precisely alike, as no two Humans are exactly alike. A standard Cell Block is about 6” across & weighs about 1 pound (although many larger varieties exist). Being mindless, it speaks no language.

    • Harmless (Ex): a Cell Block cannot &/or will not attack for any reason; it is treated as if it has no attacks

    • Object traits: in some ways, Cell Blocks are very much like objects: they are immobile, they don’t attack, & they don’t think or speak; because of their similarity to inanimate matter, they possess the following object traits: they have a Hardness rating equal to their HD (minimum 1), they have a break DC (to separate one from other adjacent Cell Blocks) equal to 20 + (HDΧ2), they can be targeted for sunder attacks, they take ½ damage from electricity, fire, & ranged attacks (but full damage from siege engines), they take Ό damage from cold attacks, & they are immune to non-lethal damage; they still do, however, have saving throws versus spells & other effects, & are treated in all other regards as a creature, including a susceptibility to critical hits

    This large yellowish ooze looks like a giant clump of sallow wax. Its shining surface glistens with a viscous slime. The creature seems for be purposefully sticking to the sides of the wall, creating an obstacle as it were trying to obstruct the passage.

    Cholesteroozes are enormous clumps of waxy slime found in the arterial tunnels of the Red Flow. They feed by sticking to the walls & then grabbing smaller creatures that happen to swim by. They are also notorious for grouping together in large numbers, often clogging a tunnel altogether with their slimy, rapacious mass.

    A Cholesterooze is about 12’ across & weighs about 1,200 pounds. Being mindless, it speaks no language.

    • Improved Grab (Ex): to use this ability, a Cholesterooze must hit with a Slam attack; it can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity; if it wins the grapple check, it establishes a hold & can pin

    • Long Reach (Ex): a Cholesterooze can lash out with its Slam attack once every 1d4-1 rounds (minimum 1), hitting opponents up to 15’ away (NOTE: it may also hit opponents that are less than 15’ away at no penalty, if it chooses); this attack is identical in all other respects to the normal Slam attack

    • Immunities (Ex): a Cholesterooze is immune to ability damage, ability drain, death effects, poison effects, & any spell or spell-like ability that allows spell resistance

    • Rapid Growth (Ex): a Cholesterooze gains 1 Hit Die every hour, until it reaches 24 Hit Die, at which point it will Split

    • Split (Ex): slashing & piercing weapons deal no damage to a Cholesterooze; instead the creature splits into 2 identical Cholesteroozes, each with ½ of the original’s current hit points (rounded down); a Cholesterooze with 10HP or less cannot be further split and dies if reduced to 0HP; a Cholesterooze will also split on its own if it reaches its maximum HD (24)

    From a distance, this strange being appears to be a slender elven woman. The illusion is soon shattered however, as the gaunt figure approaches. The creature has no real hair; instead thin, pulpy tentacles writhe slightly on its head. The creatures clothing is actually made from its own copious skin, hanging from its body in loose folding sheets. Despite the excess skin, the bizarre being has no lips, so its large toothless maw hangs open like a yawning chasm. Most unsettling of all, though, is the lack of eyes; this “woman” lacks even eye sockets, making the top half of its head a nearly featureless surface.

    Glandulords are often mistaken for Aberrations or Pseudonatural Outsiders by beings from the Material Planes that are unfamiliar with the Plane of Flesh. They all appear to somewhat emaciated humanoid females, giving them the ironic nickname “Glanduladies.” In truth, these being seem to lack any true gender that can be discerned. Scholars debate heatedly over the reasons for their existence & appearance, but no consensus is likely to emerge soon.

    The Glandulords fulfill the role of patrolling medics, traveling the Red Flow, searching for areas of the plane-body that are infected or injured. They are also ad hoc diplomats, chosen by the plane-body for their versatility & wits to represent the Flesh Plane in other realms. Nearly all of the Glandulords found on other planes are serving this purpose.

    A Glanulord is about 6’ tall & weighs almost 300 pounds. Unlike many creatures native to the Elemental Plane of Flesh, they speak a variety of languages, including the native Corpan, other elemental languages, & (sometimes) Common.

    • Hormones (Ex): a Glandulord can augment itself by secreting several beneficial chemicals into its own bloodstream; it can only use one of these abilities at a time, & it can only use each ability 3 times per day; the abilities are as follows:
    o Adrenaline: by using this hormone, a Glandulord can act as if it were under a Haste spell for 1d6+4 rounds

    o Estrogen: by using this hormone, a Glandulord can release a cloud of gas 20’ wide; any creature within the cloud must make a successful Will save (DC18) or be pacified; this pacifying effect is identical to a calm emotions spell cast be an 8th level caster

    o Pituitary: by using this hormone, a Glandulord can grow to Large size for 1d6+4 rounds; this grants it a +4 Strength bonus, a -2 Dexterity penalty, & 2 temporary HD; a Large Glandulord takes a -1 size penalty to AC, has a space of 10’Χ10’, & a reach of 10’

    o Testosterone: by using this hormone, a Glandulord can enter into an enraged state, much like a barbarian’s rage ability, for 1d6+4 rounds; in this condition, the Glandulord temporarily gains a +4 bonus to Strength, a +4 bonus to Constitution, & a +2 morale bonus on Will saves, but it takes a -2 penalty to Armor Class; the increase in Constitution increases the Glandulord’s hit points by 2 points per HD, but these hit points go away at the end of the rage when its Constitution score drops back to normal (these extra hit points are not lost first the way temporary hit points are); while raging, a Glandulord cannot use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills (except for Balance, Escape Artist, Intimidate, & Ride), the Concentration skill, or any abilities that require patience or concentration, nor can it cast spells or activate magic items that require a command word, a spell trigger (such as a wand), or spell completion (such as a scroll) to function; it can use any feat it has except Combat Expertise, item creation feats, and metamagic feats; a Glandulord cannot prematurely end its rage; at the end of the rage, the Glandulord loses the rage modifiers & restrictions & becomes fatigued (-2 penalty to Strength, -2 penalty to Dexterity, cannot charge or run) for the duration of the current encounter
    • Regeneration (Ex): fire & acid deal normal damage to a Glandulord, while all other damage is halved (50%); if a Glandulord loses a limb or other body part, the lost portion regrows in 1d8+2 rounds; critical hits cannot be regenerated

    Brilliant, bloody ****ing brilliant. A few questions. First, can the Glandulords excrete Estrogen? I can imagine it being kind of a rage killer which would work like a gas of calm emotions. Second, Will there be Ovum and Spermatozoa? I can imagine them as being two warring cell tribes. Thirdly, will there be Sensitive Areas ?

    Infectoplasm / Living Disease / Pestilental

    Creating an Infectoplasm

    “Infectoplasm” is an unusual template, in that it is applied to a disease & not a creature. The characteristics of an Infectoplasm are determined by the nature of the disease. An Infectoplasm creature uses the following statistics & abilities:

    • Type: the creature’s type is [Ooze]

    • Size: the creature’s size is determined by the disease’s infection DC: 12-14 is Medium, 15-17 is Large, 18-20 is Huge, 21-23 is Gargantuan, &
    24+ is Colossal

    • Hit Die: the creature’s Hit Dice are equal to the disease’s infection DC Χ Ύ; its Hit Dice are d10’s

    • Speed: the creature’s land speed is 20’ per round (4 squares), with a climb speed of 20’ per round (4 squares), & a swim speed of 40’ per round (8 squares)

    • Armor Class: the creature’s natural armor class bonus is equal to ½ its Hit Dice

    • Base Attack: the creature’s base attack bonus is equal to ½ its Hit Dice

    • Grapple: Grapple bonus = base attack bonus + Strength modifier + special size modifier (Colossal +16, Gargantuan +12, Huge +8, Large +4, Medium +0, Small -4, Tiny -8, Diminutive -12, Fine -16)

    • Attacks: the creature gains a natural weapon attack that it can use once per round; the type of attack is determined by the disease’s method of delivery: Contact is a Slam attack, Ingested is a Sting attack, Inhaled has no attack, Injury is a Tentacle attack; Attack bonus = base attack bonus + Strength modifier + size modifier (Colossal -8, Gargantuan -4, Huge -2, Large -1, Medium +0, Small +1, Tiny +2, Diminutive +4, Fine +8)

    • Damage: natural weapons deal damage normally; an attack deals damage depending on the creature’s size: Medium = 1d6, Large = 1d8, Huge = 2d6, Gargantuan = 2d8, Colossal = 4d6

    • Special Attacks: the creature gains the following special attacks:
    o Contaminate (Ex): every time the creature touches another being, it automatically attempts to infect the being with its disease; the infection DC, the incubation period & the ability damage are all identical to the original disease

    o Engulf (Ex): the creature can flow around opponents that fit within its space as a standard action; it cannot make a natural weapon attack during a round in which it engulfs; it merely has to move over opponents, affecting as many as it can cover in this manner; opponents can make attacks of opportunity against the creature, but if they do so then they are not entitled to a saving throw; those who refrain from attack must succeed a Reflex save (DC = Hit Dice + Strength modifier) or be engulfed; on a success, the opponents are pushed back or aside (opponent’s choice) as the spell moves forward; engulfed creatures are subject to both Contaminate & Pestilence, & are considered to be grappled; engulfed creatures can free themselves if they succeed in breaking the grapple

    o Pestilence (Ex): once every 1d6+4 rounds the creature can perform an ability damage attack; this is a touch attack that provokes attacks of opportunity; the damage it deals is equal to the ability damage of the original disease (DC = 3 + disease’s infection DC Fortitude save to resist), but there is no incubation period (the damage is instantaneous)

    o Poison Gas (Ex): the attack is only available to Infectoplasms based off of inhalation-vectored diseases; every 1d4+2 rounds, the creature can emit a cloud of infectious gas; the cloud has a 20’ radius & lasts for 1d4+2 rounds; all creatures within the cloud are exposed to the creature’s disease (via inhalation)
    • Special Qualities: the creature gains the following special qualities:
    o Ooze Traits

    o Damage Reduction (Ex): the creature has damage reduction/slashing equal to its Hit Dice

    o Immunities (Ex): the creature is immune to all forms of ability damage & ability drain; this also includes immunity to the harmful effects of all diseases, as well as most poisons

    o Spell Resistance (Ex): the creature has spell resistance equal to its Hit Dice
    • Saves: the creature’s base saves are normal for an Ooze (no good saves); it gains a resistance bonus on all saves equal to ½ its Hit Dice

    • Abilities: the creature’s Strength, Constitution & Charisma scores equal the disease’s infection DC; it’s Dexterity & Wisdom scores equal its Hit Dice; it is mindless, having no Intelligence score

    • Skills: the creature, being mindless, has no skills

    • Feats: the creature, being mindless, has no feats

    • Environment: any land or aquatic; the creature can be found in any disease-ridden area, such as a sewer, a hospital or a quarantine zone

    • Organization: solitary, plague (2-6), or epidemic (7-20)

    • Challenge Rating: the creature’s CR is equal Ύ of its Hit Dice

    • Treasure: N/A

    • Alignment: always Neutral

    • Advancement: N/A

    • Level Adjustment: N/A

    An inky puddle of goo creeps about blindly, randomly lashing out in all directions with spear-like pseudopods. Its body is pitch black, & reflects no light, giving one the impression of a hole in space.

    Infectoplasms of this variety are the living embodiment of the Blinding Sickness disease. Their true origins are unknown, but their purpose appears to be horrifyingly clear. They seem to exist solely to infect other creatures with the illness that infuses their mindless, shapeless forms.

    A Blinding Sickness Infectoplasm is about 10’ across & weighs about 800 pounds. Being mindless, it speaks no language.

    • Contaminate (Ex): every time the creature touches another being, it automatically attempts to infect the being with Blinding Sickness (infection DC16, incubation 1d3 days, ability damage 1d4 Str, each time the victim takes 2 or more damage from the disease, he must make another Fortitude save or be permanently blinded)

    • Engulf (Ex): the creature can flow around opponents that fit within its space as a standard action; it cannot make a natural weapon attack during a round in which it engulfs; it merely has to move over opponents, affecting as many as it can cover in this manner; opponents can make attacks of opportunity against the creature, but if they do so then they are not entitled to a saving throw; those who refrain from attack must succeed a Reflex save (DC15) or be engulfed; on a success, the opponents are pushed back or aside (opponent’s choice) as the spell moves forward; engulfed creatures are subject to both Contaminate & Pestilence, & are considered to be grappled; engulfed creatures can free themselves if they succeed in breaking the grapple

    • Pestilence (Ex): once every 1d6+4 rounds the creature can perform an ability damage attack; this is a touch attack that provokes attacks of opportunity; just like Blinding Sickness, this attack deals 1d4 Str damage (DC19 Fortitude save to resist), but there is no incubation period (the damage is instantaneous); if the victim takes 2 or more damage from this attack, he must make a Fortitude save or be permanently blinded

    • Immunities (Ex): the creature is immune to all forms of ability damage & ability drain; this also includes immunity to the harmful effects of all diseases, as well as most poisons

    A quivering mass of motile sludge, this unsettling entity moves forward as if searching for prey. The creature’s amorphous body is a motley mιlange of bright, maddening colors, periodically pockmarked with large vent-like pores. The entire being trembles spastically, & it seems that if it had a mouth, it would be laughing uncontrollably.

    Infectoplasms of this variety are the living embodiment of the Cackle Fever disease. Their true origins are unknown, but their purpose appears to be horrifyingly clear. They seem to exist solely to infect other creatures with the illness that infuses their mindless, shapeless forms.

    A Cackle Fever Infectoplasm is about 14’ across & weighs about 1½ tons. Being mindless, it speaks no language.

    • Contaminate (Ex): every time the creature touches another being, it automatically attempts to infect the being with Cackle Fever (infection DC16, incubation 1 day, ability damage 1d6 Wis, each time the victim takes 2 or more damage from the disease, he must make another Fortitude save or be permanently blinded)

    • Engulf (Ex): the creature can flow around opponents that fit within its space as a standard action; it cannot make a natural weapon attack during a round in which it engulfs; it merely has to move over opponents, affecting as many as it can cover in this manner; opponents can make attacks of opportunity against the creature, but if they do so then they are not entitled to a saving throw; those who refrain from attack must succeed a Reflex save (DC15) or be engulfed; on a success, the opponents are pushed back or aside (opponent’s choice) as the spell moves forward; engulfed creatures are subject to both Contaminate & Pestilence, & are considered to be grappled; engulfed creatures can free themselves if they succeed in breaking the grapple

    • Pestilence (Ex): once every 1d6+4 rounds the creature can perform an ability damage attack; this is a touch attack that provokes attacks of opportunity; just like Cackle Fever, this attack deals 1d6 Wis damage (DC19 Fortitude save to resist), but there is no incubation period (the damage is instantaneous)

    • Poison Gas (Ex): every 1d4+2 rounds, the creature can emit a cloud of infectious gas; the cloud has a 20’ radius & lasts for 1d4+2 rounds; all creatures within the cloud are exposed to Cackle Fever (infection DC16, incubation 1 day, ability damage 1d6 Wis)

    • Immunities (Ex): the creature is immune to all forms of ability damage & ability drain; this also includes immunity to the harmful effects of all diseases, as well as most poisons

    This mammoth ooze moves forward aggressively, giving of an aura of rage & malevolence. Its formless body is covered with beastly colors, arranged without any apparent order or pattern. Wisps of steam waft from the thing’s tentacular body, but it seems not to notice.

    Infectoplasms of this variety are the living embodiment of the Demon Fever disease. Their true origins are unknown, but their purpose appears to be horrifyingly clear. They seem to exist solely to infect other creatures with the illness that infuses their mindless, shapeless forms.

    This gelatinous creature is little more that a heap of writhing tentacles. Despite the fact that its pulsing body is the color of hellfire, the strange thing gives off a cloud of unnatural cold air.

    No words adequately describe the foulness of this sludge-like thing. Its shifting form is the color of vomit & animal waste, & the stench it gives off heavily implies that it has been recently been covered in fetid fluids. An aura of squalor & decay surround the senseless creature as it oozes forward.

    A pulsating mass of living sludge, this abnormal thing moves forward as if driven by madness. The organism’s nebulous body is a morass of dark, unpleasant colors, covered sporadically with small pore-like holes. The entire creature shudders from time to time, as if it were in terrible anguish.

    A shivering puddle of ooze creeps about haltingly, randomly thrashing about in violent spasms. The being’s shapeless figure is the color of gangrene & necrotic tissue. The entire being trembles viciously, & a low hum issues forth from its convulsive vibrations.

    • Pestilence (Ex): once every 1d6+4 rounds the creature can perform an ability damage attack; this is a touch attack that provokes attacks of opportunity; just like the Shakes, this attack deals 1d8 Dex damage (DC16 Fortitude save to resist), but there is no incubation period (the damage is instantaneous)

    This disgusting slime creeps forward on its own predatory momentum, as if it were fated to do so. Its translucent body is the color of a putrid mire, & multiple blunt pseudopods issue forth randomly.

    Infectoplasms of this variety are the living embodiment of the Slimy Doom disease. Their true origins are unknown, but their purpose appears to be horrifyingly clear. They seem to exist solely to infect other creatures with the illness that infuses their mindless, shapeless forms.

    A Slimy Doom Infectoplasm is about 8’ across & weighs almost 500 pounds. Being mindless, it speaks no language.

    • Contaminate (Ex): every time the creature touches another being, it automatically attempts to infect the being with Slimy Doom (infection DC14, incubation 1 day, ability damage 1d4 Con, when damaged, the character must succeed on another saving throw or 1 point of damage is permanent drain instead)

    • Engulf (Ex): the creature can flow around opponents that fit within its space as a standard action; it cannot make a natural weapon attack during a round in which it engulfs; it merely has to move over opponents, affecting as many as it can cover in this manner; opponents can make attacks of opportunity against the creature, but if they do so then they are not entitled to a saving throw; those who refrain from attack must succeed a Reflex save (DC12) or be engulfed; on a success, the opponents are pushed back or aside (opponent’s choice) as the spell moves forward; engulfed creatures are subject to both Contaminate & Pestilence, & are considered to be grappled; engulfed creatures can free themselves if they succeed in breaking the grapple

    • Pestilence (Ex): once every 1d6+4 rounds the creature can perform an ability damage attack; this is a touch attack that provokes attacks of opportunity; just like Slimy Doom, this attack deals 1d4 Con damage (DC17 Fortitude save to resist), but there is no incubation period (the damage is instantaneous); when damaged, the character must succeed on another saving throw or 1 point of damage is permanent drain instead

    • Immunities (Ex): the creature is immune to all forms of ability damage & ability drain; this also includes immunity to the harmful effects of all diseases, as well as most poisons

    Seems to me injury should be a sting and tentacles (which can theoretically grapple, maintaining contact, even if the ooze isn't 'programmed' to do that) should be contact. That would leave ingested paired up with slam.

    Very very interesting idea...I'll have to reread it in-depth soon but for now I mostly want to subscribe so I won't lose it.

    Very interesting.

    I could start a campaign in this plane, but first I'd probably have to say, "Your characters must all have at least Acid Resistance", because I'd join the characters up by shunting them all into an acid pocket.

    This strange creature appears to be a nearly shapeless mass of muscle tissue, linked to only a few ever-shifting bones by ropey tendons & ligaments. Vaguely slug-like, the elemental being lacks any facial features, save for two short, muscular stalks that suggest eyes.

    Ligamentals, also known as Flesh Elementals, are like microcosms of the plane-body itself. These ubiquitous creatures roam the entire plane, performing various tasks that (mostly) serve to aid the plane-body. They seem to lack any internal organs & only possess a few bones for the absolute minimum of structural support; instead, they are composed almost entirely of muscular tissues, making them strong & tough.

    A Small Ligamental is about 3’ across & weighs almost 50 pounds. It speaks Corpan, but not much.

    • Constrict (Ex): on a successful grapple check, a Ligamental deals 2d6+4 points of damage (20/Χ2 critical)

    • Flesh Mastery (Ex): a Ligamental gains a +1 bonus to attack & damage rolls on any opponent that they are in contact with, such as while grappling, performing touch attacks, or casting spells with a range of touch; this bonus does not apply if the opponent is not made of flesh (Constructs, Elementals, Fey, Oozes, Outsiders, & incorporeal Undead)

    This ellipsoid entity has a smooth translucent outer surface, underneath which is a wrinkled inner surface. In the center of the pill-shaped being is a gelatinous matrix of fluidic material, with thousands of tiny motes floating around. Some of these motes are dark & static, while others seem to pulse with a brilliant energy.

    Mightochondria are the power plants that run the Flesh Plane. These mindless creatures generate the energy that keeps the myriad Cell Blocks that make up the plane-body alive. They travel throughout the plane, going where they are needed, healing & removing ailments from sick or injured creatures. Without these tireless powerhouses, the Elemental Plane of Flesh could not survive.

    A Mightochondrion is about 4’ long & weighs about 80 pounds. Being mindless, it speaks no language.

    • Generate Power (Su): once per round, a Mightochondrion can infuse other beings with positive energy, healing 1d6 hit points of damage to 1 creature per Hit Die; this ability inflicts undead with 1d6 points of damage

    • Stunning Shock (Ex): once per round, a Mightochondrion can deliver an electrical shock to a single opponent within 20’; this attack deals 2d6+12 points of electricity damage to living opponents; Reflex save (DC12) for half damage

    • Absorb Energy (Ex): all electricity- & fire-based damage heals a Mightochondrion instead of harming them

    • Blindsense (Ex): a Mightochondrion notices & locates creatures within 60’; opponents still have total concealment (50% miss chance) against a creature with Blindsense

    • Nullify Disease (Su): a Mightochondrion can neutralize all diseases within any living being that it is in contact with, negating any further ability damage/drain; this is identical to a remove disease spell cast by a 7th level caster; a successful touch attack is required to produce this effect

    • Nullify Poison (Su): a Mightochondrion can neutralize all poisons within any living being that it is in contact with, negating any further ability damage/drain; this is identical to a neutralize poison spell cast by a 7th level caster; a successful touch attack is required to produce this effect

    This titanic being looks like nothing more than a giant wadded-up ball of skin; its many fleshy flaps folded into a tightly-packed ball. Multiple tentacular limbs are formed by rolled up dermal sheets. The creature rolls forward, tightening & relaxing at will.

    Dermal Nodes are like living skin grafts. They travel to the site of a major injure to the plane-body & cover it with their bodies, protecting the area until repairs can be made. When not used for that specific purpose, Dermal Nodes travel the airy pockets & cavities of the plane-body, defending the plane from unwanted intrusions. They are known to block interplanar portals with their own bodies, attacking anything that approaches from the other side.

    A Dermal Node is about 48’ across & weighs about 32 tons. It speaks Corpan, but not much.

    • Constrict (Ex): on a successful grapple check, a Dermal Node deals 2d8+8 points of damage; constricting uses the entire body of the creature, so it cannot take any move actions while constricting

    • Improved Grab (Ex): to use this ability, a Dermal Node must hit with a Skin Slap attack; it can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity; if it wins the grapple check, it establishes a hold & can Constrict

    • Long Reach (Ex): a Dermal Node can lash out with its Skin Slap attack once every 1d4-1 rounds (minimum 1), hitting opponents up to 30’ away (NOTE: it may also hit opponents that are less than 30’ away at no penalty, if it chooses); this attack is identical in all other respects to the normal Skin Slap attack

    • Regeneration (Ex): fire & acid deal normal damage to a Dermal Node, while all other damage is halved (50%); if a Dermal Node loses a limb or other body part, the lost portion regrows in 1d8+2 rounds; critical hits cannot be regenerated
