I Want to Make a Mutant Animal....

Unread post by Gazirra »

I'm looking to start converting some of the dinosaurs from Dinosaur Swamp into mutant animals for my own use. I'd like to know how to make them well, and not seem too powerful or anything.

Well, I need to know how to do the entire process of making a new type of mutant animal from a set of data I have. I don't know how to calculate anything besides size level.

The back of TMNT and Other Strangenesses contains a small section on creating your own animals, and how to figure stuff out for them. There aren't any hard and fast rules really, but it gives some basic guidelines, the most important of which is how to calculate the appropriate starting BIO-E.

And Transdimentional TMNT will be a big help in working out the size levels and various powers.

I know this is almost 12 years after the fact, but did you ever finish your Sarchosuchus?

to make a sarchosuchus, use the alligator/crocodile stats, and modify them for scale using the guidelines on page 16 of Rifter #18

It's been 7 years. Way to necropost.
