Do sliver overlord next. Its description will include Lanareil, because it's from leigons. I like Lanareil so mch, he'll appear as an NPC in my campagin. Thanks for the insparation!
I have presented you the finest, rarest, most divine snackrifice ever-a tarrasque, ascended to greater deity-hood, with all templates applied to it.
Lanariel is a she, as in a female, and the next sliver will be the Spined. The Overlord is scheduled for last, I am not about to change the order just because people ask me to, it would set a bad predecent. And besides, I ain't finished with the overlord yet. :D

Law: Perhaps...


Edit: Argh! Forgot the color closer.
 

Krishnath,

I am merely a lurker, having just joined recently. But I must say, I love your Slivers (and other creations you've been part of). Thank you very much for your work and your passion. I'm thinking I might use your slivers at some point when I think my players might last more than 10 rounds. (heh!)

and now the snackages: 8 Rakshashas dressed up as the G-8 leaders, enjoy!

Spined slivers are bred to be used as shock troops should the need arise.
A spined sliver has skin the color of rotting meat, shifting in blue, green and red hues. The slivers entire back, tentacles, and claw are covered in long spines in a variety of colors. The long spines that cover the slivers body also grant it excellent protection.

Combat:
Spined slivers a bred for combat, using their long spines and tentacles to grapple their opponents, so that other slivers can more easily attack them.
Improved Grab (Ex): If a spined sliver hits an opponent of at least small size or larger, it deals normal damage and may attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity.
Shared Ability (Ex): All slivers within 60’ of a spined sliver gain access to the spined slivers improved grab ability, and gains damage reduction 2/-.

One Water Elemental Snackrifice coming up! Great job!

Hmmm... since law is doing Incarnations, how about Myr or Kavus for your next project? ;)
Ah, thanks I was thirsty.

*gulp*

Mmm... Cherry flavor...

I will do neither the Myr nor the Kavu as quite frankly, I find neither interresting. But I am open for suggestions for other creatures.

Actually, english, as you might have noticed, is not my native tongue.

um nope, I work with those kids who've been suspended/expelled ... and despite only speaking/reading english ... suffice to say, yours is excellent (and your spelling is fine)
