Creating a Mutant
A mutant can be grown by means of the Craft Mutant feat, requiring a DC 15 Heal check to stabilize and begin the growing process in a protective tank or shell. The base cost for the body is listed below.
- Tiny or smaller: 500gp
- Small: 1,000gp
- Medium: 2,000gp
- Large: 5,000gp
- Huge: 10,000gp
- Gargantuan: 25,000gp
- Colossal: 50,000gp
In addition, additional powers from the spellborg template can be added at additional cost. The process is similar to enhancing armor or weapons, but the cost is Bonus Squared x 1500g. The base body is considered the pre-requisite +1.
- 1 Additional Power: 6,000gp
- 2 Additional Powers: 13,500gp
- 3 Additional Powers: 24,000gp
- 4 Additional Powers: 37,500gp
- 5 Additional Powers: 54,000gp
- 6 Additional Powers: 73,500gp
- 7 Additional Powers: 96,000gp
- 8 Additional Powers: 121,500gp
- 9 Additional Powers: 150,000gp
Additional powers beyond the effective "+10" cannot be made before epic.
The market price of a mutant creature is equal to the cost of the body, the cost of extra powers, plus 2,500gp per hit die, and the cost to create is equal to the cost of the body, the cost of extra powers, plus 1,250gp and 120xp per hit die, and creating a mutant requires a caster level equal to the mutant's hit dice.
