[MENTION=97077]iserith[/MENTION]: Hmm, yes. I suppose I could do an Alien-style scene and have a salad tadpole burst out of the chest of an infected NPC before scuttling off to get bigger somewhere. Then later it can reappear and attack the PCs, and they'll be forewarned about what might happen.
It might also make a good social interaction challenge. Can the PCs garner some critical information from this pain-delirious NPC before he or she dies?
