Secrets of the Skinner [Necromantic Creation] Your invited to dine with me and my friends, please report to the kitchen so they might prepare the menu.Prerequisites: Variant Body Assemblage or other ability to use Animate Dead, 5 ranks in Craft (Leatherworking) or Profession (Tanner) or similar a Craft or Profession skill.Benefit: You may craft a disguise from the skin of a dead creature called a skinsuit. This takes 1 hour and access to leatherworking/tanning tools which cost 50gp. Donning a skinsuit is the same as donning light armor. While wearing a skin suit you gain the benefits of an Extraordinary Disguise Self and Barkskin spells with a caster level equal to your ECL. You may only wear a skinsuit made from a creature within one size category of your own.

In addition, you can create a new type of undead known as Skins. Skins are identical to Skeletons, with the following exceptions:

  • Skins lose the skeleton's immunity to cold, damage reduction, and improved initiative feat.
  • Skins retain their fly speed, if any.
  • Windblown (Ex): Skins are very thin and light. They are immune to falling damage, and count as one size smaller than normal for the purpose of interacting with wind effects and bullrushes. They also always take minimum damage from [Air] spells and wind effects.
  • Soft Body (Su): Skins are immune to bludgeoning damage.
  • Ballooning (Ex): As long as the skin wears no armor and carry a light load, it gains a hover speed equal to its land speed and may replicate the effect of levitate (self only) at will. If it takes 5 or more points of piercing damage while hovering or levitating, it will fall.
  • Gains Improved Grapple as a bonus feat.
  • Improved Grab (slams) (on creatures of up to 1 size category larger), Constrict 1d4 (Medium), and creatures the skin grapples must hold their breath or risk suffocation. If it makes a successful grapple check while pinning a creature, it forces their mouth open and they begin to suffocate.
