FLESHWARPING
"The flesh is fluid! Remake it in your image, and show them your power!" -Darth Cronen, Sith
Fleshwarping, also known as body grafting, has been an unnatural force power attempted ever since the creation of the first sithspawn. Some consider it the predecessor to creating the first Sithspawn. However, in time it has become an entirely separate power of creating sithspawn, albeit one that also utilizes sith alchemy.
Where Sithspawn is the creation or alteration of a creature into something completely different, Fleshwarping is the altering of a being’s body while still maintaining its “humanity”. Instead of making a creature more brutal, more cunning or more intelligent, Fleshwarping focuses on altering the body characteristics: increased size, additional limbs, altering skin structure, etc. The equivalent of Fleshwarping would be mundane cybernetics versus Sithspawn as altering the brain and genetics with technology.
For the longest time, Fleshwarping was considered a dead end. The channeling of raw Dark Side energy into a being usually either killed the subject or drove them insane. However, with the discovery of Synthflesh and Synthskin, the practice became more pronounced. By using both the darkside and technology, Sith alchemy could graft entirely new limbs onto subjects, or alter existing body parts with fewer consequences. No longer was the Force limited by the confines of the body. Now, the body could be altered and added upon, and the subject, through extremely painful processes, could evolve.
Benefits:
Pleasant Skin: Whether its silky smooth or extra rough, pale white or tanned brown, A Fleshwarper can make the being more attractive in every way.
Additional Limb Graft: Size can vary from the donated specimen, and placement of the new leg or arm depends on the Fleshwarper’s discretion.
Carapace of scales:
Clawed Hands, Webbed feet:
Master Benefits: True masters of fleshwarping make the practice an artform. The benefits below can only be added by Sith Masters or higher Ranked, and only those of similar rank can endure the process.
Ebony Wings: The pinnacle of additional limbs, these large leathery wings allow the subject flight. Due to the size and complexity of this benefit, the subject takes two hindrances instead of just one.
Inhumane Strength:
Disguised Body: A complete rework of the skin and body structure results in a form completely unrecognizable from the original. While its impossible to make it look like an entirely new species
Below are the most common applications of Fleshwarping, though more could be added with mods approval.
Hinderences: For each benefit gifted through fleshwarping, a hindrance must also be taken. No hindrance can be taken twice.
Pain imbued: reworked flesh is never a pleasant endeavor, but sometimes the pain experienced is more lasting. With the affected flesh, it is constantly in a state of pain, causing distractions in battle and making force powers much harder to utilize.
Lumbering Bulk: The increased size and mass from the Fleshwarping make the subject deceptively heavier than normal, slowing their speed and agility.
Mucus and ichor: the affected flesh is constantly bleeding and smelling of rot. Even with the use of Bacta, the affected being will never fully heal. Such appearances can be disturbing for everyone else, and permanently marks the subject as Sith aligned.
Screaming ears: the toll of fleshwarping can go beyond the skin. The brain sometimes breaks slightly and believes it is constantly hearing various high pitch screams at random intervals, which is distracting to say the least.
Nauseating fluids: the body was never meant to take on this unnatural kind of tampering, and is resisting the added flesh. The fluids of puss and bile that are being fed back into the system from the warped flesh makes the person nauseated all the time
Intent: To create a darkside power that gives an element of teamwork among stih, albeit an unpleasant form, as well as to create a force power that is more akin to body horror.
