The Abberattions are strange creatures, akin to undead. They are
''sewn'' together, though not quite, of various body parts and tissues
of dead bodies. Due to this, their skin is combinations of human, mer,
and beast flesh. Due to large Gaps in the Skin, muscles and arteries
have overgrown to large proportions, making them seem as though they
have tentacles coming from their body. Their motivation is unknown, but
it is easy to see that they are devoid of personality or sentient
thought.
The swamp abberattion is a footsoldier who was stuck in the poisonous
waters of the swamp and over time changed to a 9 ft tall super
abberattion. Few pieces of its armor are still on its body, its left
arm has been completely replaced by muscle and arteries, making it
obsessively large. There is no known way to kill this horrible beast.
Whew... more coming soon

The Abberattion Footsoldier
This is the lifeblood of the Abberattion army, taking up about 12/15 of it.
they are made to be mass produced and as of that are often unalike in appearance, merely being speedily thrown together.
Appearance
--------------- These creatures are made from
sewing together the corpses of fallen enemies and large animals. Since
most of the population of the Island is dunmer, most of the
Footsoldiers have predominatly grey skin, with pieces of animal scale
and fur used to fill in the blank spots. Sometimes if a Footsoldier
survives enough battles or its skin begins to rot its flesh will start
to decay and turn a sickly pale
To keep their shambled bodies together, the Footsoldiers nerves
and muscles have grown to abnormal proportions, often breaking through
holes in the flesh and resembling more along the line of tentacles than
body-parts. If a large part of the Footsoldier is cut away or falls
off, nerve and muscle tissue will grow to fill that spot and keep the
creature from losing to much time off the field of battle. This gives
them a very limited regeneration ability, but the nerve is in no way as
strong as the old flesh and bone, meaning creatures who's legs or arms
have been replaced are often sent off the battlefield to work in the
facility or be unassembled, and used to make new abberattions.
Their armor, like them, is made to be mass-produced and is crude
in its make. Though the backbone of Footsoldier armor is a steel plate
style armor that just covers the front part of the body, back, and neck
, anything sturdy is applicable for abberrattion use. You will often
see older Footsoldiers wearing black elven or leather boots or chest
pieces that they have taken from fallen enemies.
-------------------------------------
Personality and Battle Tactics
-------------------------------------
These creatures have been robbed of their free-will and do tasks with
amazing straight-forwardness. Though they are great at accomplishing
the task set before them, they are unable to invent and change without
at first witnessing or being taught how.
The Abberattions all originate from the Facility and are made only
for battle. Thus there whole social structure is centered on combat
prowess. Anything not able to fight is pointless and is left to die or
work

The footsoldier is the middle of the chain and is the majority of what the facility produces.
In battle these creatures fight according to what kind of footsoldier they are
1. Flesh
The crude nickname given to the larger footsoldiers by Valneera troops.
These abberattion are covered in layers of muscle and nerve, which
often is sticking out of the extra-thick layer of flesh covering it.
The added muscles and tendons makes them outrageously strong but slow
due to restricted movement in their legs. They are often given a large
Berserker Sword, Axe or Warhammer and wear the maximum amount of armor
2.Grunt This is the nickname of the common
footsoldier, about dunmer in size and stature. There is nothing
extraodinary about these soldiers and they are just there to do one
thing, kill. They are usually given a crude metal rod, Berserker Sword,
or a spined blade with a shield or another spined blade. They often
wear sets of steel crude plate with a few pieces missing, or replaced
with other armors.
3. Widowmaker The nickname given to the
abberattion that have survived multiple battles and slain scores of
dunmer. To survive they have cannibilized corpses of fallen enemy and
ally alike resulting in its body being able to withstand a multitude of
blows as you strike through multiple layers of newer flesh. They often
use Crude Scythes or Arm Blades, but sometimes have been seen with some
of the more common weapons. They wear armor on their legs and armors to
protect important joints. Protection of the other parts is trivial
since hardened flesh and bone separate the enemy and the creatures
vulnerable insides.

The Abberattion Hunter
Appearance
---------------
This creature is built around the same guidelines as other Abberattions, with notable differences
They are a lot slimmer then most Abberattion and are missing the large tentacle tendons that the Footsoldiers sport.
Also the Arms and legs have been lengthened to increase speed and maneuverability.
Their hands have been replace by a large metal hook on one arm and a
claw with metal fingers on the other. This allows the hunter to travel
great distances by swinging easily on the swamp trees. They wear
no-to-little armor, just enough to protect vital points, allowing them
to keep mobility. Their eye sockets are often filled with, not mortal
eyes, but the eyes of creatures of the swamp, giving it the ability to
see in the dark, and often bright, blood, red eyes.
Without much armor or extra skin and muscle they aren't as durable as
many of the abberattions, but they are EXTREMELY fast, so actually
hitting them is a feat in itself.
--------------------------------
Society and Battle-Tactics
--------------------------------
These creatures, higher up then the Footsoldiers, are the berserkers of
the Abberattion army. Charging into battle after the footsoldiers,
these creatures turn into a storm of flailing, slicing, clawing. Moving
with unparalleled grace and speed, they jump from enemy to enemy,
digging through armor and flesh like it was paper.
Often these creatures are sent into the swamp to hunt down
Valneeran Ranger Patrols, racing through the swamp til they get to
their target. The few Rangers that survive these attacks tell how these
creatures would come from the darkness, strike, and descend back into
the shadows, attacking again and again from completely different
directions.
These creatures also serve another purpose. Fear. With their long
slender bodies, red eyes, and rusted metal appendages, they strike fear
into the populace of Valneera. Often they are sent into Valneera to
steal and ruin provisions, kidnap children, and commit random killings
to shake up the moral of the dunmer.

The Spore Abberattion
This Abberattion is actually a Worker Abberattion, but after being
exposed to the chemicals and other entities of the Facility, the poison
has rendered it unable to work, and has been all gathered in a large
sore on its back.
Since this creature can't work, or be cannabalized for more parts due
to being decayed and rotten, it is sent out as a Kamikaze unit in large
siege battles.
They will run at top speed, then lunge forward, propelling them towards
their target. Upon impact the gases and chemicals in its spore will mix
and cause a chemical reaction. An Explosion.
The explosion covers about a 15 foot range, with poisonous fallout
occuring for the next 30 feet. This works perfectly for the
Abberattions, because the small amount of fallout is harmless to them,
but critical to the Valneera
Here is a picture of the Spore Abberattion by Lutemoth and one by witchfinder general, minus the pants
Harikari has attached this image (reduced version):

Abberattion Mutations/Experiments
The facility as you know is used to make the Abberattion armies. Of
course it started out just making footsoldiers, but eventually the
leader decided something different. And he didn't just automatically
get the War, Goliath, and other variants.
The experiments are Abberattions put together for the sake of just improving upon already made design or making a new design.
If the Goliath's legs would snap off, then an Abberattion would be
made with the legs of a Goliath to test new ways to make them. A
goliaths body would not be wasted though. This results in many
Experiments have mismatching body parts, or missing ones entirely.
Many experiments are made trying to make new forms of
Abberattions. Everything from small dog-like beasts or huge centipede
creatures for siege combat. This doesn't always work correctly. This
results in creatures unable to follow commands, attacking anything that
comes near it.
Though it is rare, a few Abberattion Experiments will cannabalize
a corpse of parts, attaching them to itself, making itself bigger and
bigger, til it is a living glob of contorted parts and organs.
Mutations are creatures that were maybe exposed to too many chemicals,
accidently had an extra limb attached, grew a new appendage, or even
was in a waste pit of useless abberattion pieces and formed a whole
being out of all of them. These further abominations of nature are
horrible to look at, and are often harmful even to touch.
These creatures, if sane enough, are sometimes sent to battle with
the standard infantry, just so they will be killed and not have to be
dealt with, or left in the facility for further experiments, working,
or to guard the hallways of the workings.
Here is a picture of a mutation/experiment by Lutemoth

Abberattion Goliath
The Abberation Goliath shares more characteristics with animals then
man or mer. It is about 10-14 feet tall (sorry no metric) when
standing, and 8-10 feet when walking.
Its body is made up like a footsoldiers, with patches of flesh
sewn together and enlarged tendons hanging out, though the amount of
tendons and muscles has vastly increased.
Unlike a footsoldier though, its arms are massive, and the forearm
is made completely of bone, because of this, its forearms are capable
of inflicting tremendous amounts of enviromental damage, bashing
fortress walls, tearing trees from their roots. The hands are composed
of one thumb and two fingers.
Its legs are small compared to the size of its arms, resulting in
it walking on its knuckles akin to a gorilla. Though this isn't a very
good mode of transportation, it doesnt bother the Goliath a bit in
battle, where it stands on its legs while swinging its gigantic arms
about, crushing opposing forces.
Its head is usually shaped like that of a dog, with the jaw
elongated. Often you can hear its eery battle-howl miles away.
Because of its size, it takes a lot of resources to
make. Meaning that it is much rarer than the standard footsoldier. It
is often sent as a leader of an infantry group, though its intelligence
is lacking.
No concept art yet....

Hag Abberattion
Even though still retaining the looks of the women they are made from,
these creatures are considered one of the most disturbing and inhuman
things to come from the facility.
No one know why all women used in the facility are turned into
hags, but they are never seen transformed into footsoldiers or any
other of the abberattion variants. Also, they are changed very little,
their looks almost identical to those of their former life. Their hands
are modified, with metal claws and knifes replacing their fingers;
their eyes are taken out, leaving gaping black holes. Finally, they are
wrapped in old, rotten bandage, ranging from bandage just covering weak
joints or injuries, or even almost the whole body.
Due to their shocking similarity to dead Valneeran women, the hags
crush Valneeran moral, reducing soldiers to weeping fools. They are
capable of taking the form of the woman they are made from through
mysterious means and are able to still retain their place in society,
as if nothing had happened. Many a brave soldier has been lost by
coming home to his love, and being shredded by uncaring claws.
Besides crippling morale, these creatures are perfect assassins
and ambushers. Being barely changed from their human form, they retain
their full flexibility and joint movement unlike most abberattions, and
it is actually improved after the process. Their senses improved 3
fold, they no longer need their sight and it is almost impossible to go
unseen by one.
