Yes -- in fact, the Spawn are too easy right now, and this is exactly what they need.

0 (0%)

Yes, but weaken them in other areas to compensate.

0 (0%)

Yes, but only fix fatal decapitations.

4 (66.7%)

Yes, but only fix spinal damage.

1 (16.7%)

No, they're fine as-is. It doesn't bother me much.

@Reudh:

Huh, I thought their maws were on their torsos.

Also, the beard around the mouth, there... err, yeah, looks like my nightmares tonight will have a... feminine touch. Ahem.

@Hugo:

That's the plan, yeah.

@Meph:

IIRC, the maw started at the base of the jaw (merging with the actual mouth) and ran down the center of the upper body. The majority of the maw looked to be on the torso, so that's where my version has it, but there's a lot of variation between depictions.

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

Then the plan is in motion.... lol

And lol at the "nightmare" just be glad those are only on spawn females

[Reudh]

Yeah, that picture's not entirely accurate. It's the closest representation I could find, but yes, their maws start on their face and extend to about stomach level.

[Mr Frog]

Didn't Chance II post some lovely anatomical drawings back then? I can't find them, though

[Mr Frog]

Okay, as it looks like everybody who cares enough to vote has done so already and fixing just decapitations has had a healthy lead right from the start, I'm locking the poll and getting to work.

YAY!
can we still have a fort of meji?

[Mr Frog]

Naturally, DFFD craps out just as I have something to upload :V  I'll try again later.

YAY!

If by that you mean 'Will you start up a maej succession fort?' ...Maybe later.

[Aseaheru]

ok.


yays!

[Mr Frog]

New version of Spawn is now up.

Corai Unki: Adequate Troll

Anyways... Yes, Maej are another mod I have up in the OP, if you'd looked (so, not as off-topic as you thought :p). They're a fortress-playable race of sea-anemone-bug-things. Look in the OP for the relevant links and info. It's a seperate file listing from the Spawn (I could have packed it in with the Spawn as a 'free sample', but that seems a tad abusive :p).

I'm not really sure how to describe them, if that's what you're asking... there's not a lot of actual animals to compare them to. I tried to base them off of cnidarians, but that sort of went out the window at some point.

[Reudh]

Frog, what do you think about the Australia mod that was briefly floated in the Hellcannon thread? I'd love to take a crack at it.

I'm not sure what exactly you're asking here... Did I hit my head at some point..? I'm unusually-dumb today...

If you're asking if I'd want to do it... I'm certainly open to persuasion. Extra-dangerous wildlife can be a fun challenge to deal with. My favorite fort ever so far was a 31.25 fort founded in a Terrifying forest full of sentient, bloodsucking trees (I'd upload the raws, but it seems like overkill what with all the new horrors 34.xx has in evil regions).
I'm mostly concerned about the number of creatures involved (Australia has a lot of horrifying animal life). It'd be hard to give each one the proper amount of creativity and attention.

If you're asking if you yourself should do it... um, go ahead? Not my call.


Incidentally, I believe you promised me a human heart earlier?

[Meph]

sentient, bloodsucking trees

Nice. Do they drop wood upon death ?

[Reudh]

Well, like I said, Australia's got the Gympie-gympie, a stinging tree, though not sure how I'd make that outside of it being an immobile creature.
