Extruder

Extruder.jpg

The extruder is a ribcage and a tail. It moves by growing ribs from its spine and adding to its tail to maintain a height of up to 2 meters off the ground; this holds it in place well enough that it can travel up walls and ceilings. Only the tail part is actually part of the creature; the remainder of the ribcage is merely detritus.

Extruders live on a diet of bones. Extruders are not particularly smart, and cannot speak. Extruders get -1 to Perception in bright light.

The extruder has only one "hand", but deals 1d6+2 damage with unarmed attacks (Muscle included), and when it successfully wounds a creature with an unarmed attack, that creature takes another 1d6+3 damage (Muscle included) at the beginning of its next turn from growing bones, as it is held in place until someone can shatter the (now detritus) bones holding it steady (Toughness 4, 1 HP).

Advancement

Greater Ribcage (50 points): The Extruder gets +4 meters to reach, and its rib-growing can maintain a height of up to 4 meters. Wounded creatures take another 1d6+4 damage (Muscle included) at the beginning of each of their turns spent held in place, not only the first one. It gains two Advanced Specialties.

Wormholes (50 points): As a move action, the Extruder can create an extradimensional space with two entry points on surfaces the Extruder can visualize within 8 meters, then move half of one of its move speeds. If the Extruder imagines a surface where there isn't one, the action is wasted. The entry points are barely wide enough for the Extruder (0.6 meters). The interior of the extradimensional space is 5 meters deep, and the Volume Ratio is 100. The space is dispelled when the Extruder creates a new one. It gains two Advanced Specialties and becomes [ Purple ].
