They attacks by pressing their twisting and writhing capillaries against the flesh of a living victim, which drill beneath the skin in search of blood.

They required 5 pints of blood per day, and without blood perish within 3 days. For this reason, they willingly serve any master who provides (and withholds) their gruesome sustenance. They are created through the 7th level vivimancer spell Create Organ Golem. This spell is contained in the second part of <i><a href="http://www.maziriansgarden.blogspot.com/2014/03/the-hidden-metamorphoses.html">The Hidden Metamorphoses</a></i>. It requires a working laboratory of at least 2000gp value, a living victim, a tub of elemental earth, and a pint of aboleth semen. The technique involves first liberating the intact cardiovascular system from the living victim. Needless to say, this process involves terrible life sustaining magics, and requires mastery of anatomy, surgical precision, and an iron stomach. Once the cardiovascular system has been removed, the bleeding heart along with its veinous root system must be carefully buried in the elemental earth that has been fertilized in advance with the potent semen from the Aboleth. If the heart bulb is properly tended for a month, it will sprout a strange growth, blossoming within a fortnight into a </span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b style="background-color: white; line-height: 18.479999542236328px;">Sanguinary </b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18.479999542236328px;">ripe for the harvesting.</span></span><br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLo9yFBzud2GSqHdTzoz54CQhaekI_Cybg_olOujhQYx8kne8U88AACVLzBLYJdWRx2ISU0XwdBPevHa6aeDY3UL31Fh8Oez0j9-FYJoKhOsL1vhGCbYIhDAwQlBcje0AZ0fNL0P5d2UU/s1600/238f099b922bcfbcbea5b3ca58fed4f1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLo9yFBzud2GSqHdTzoz54CQhaekI_Cybg_olOujhQYx8kne8U88AACVLzBLYJdWRx2ISU0XwdBPevHa6aeDY3UL31Fh8Oez0j9-FYJoKhOsL1vhGCbYIhDAwQlBcje0AZ0fNL0P5d2UU/s1600/238f099b922bcfbcbea5b3ca58fed4f1.jpg" width="178" /></a></div> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18.479999542236328px;"><br /></span></span> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18.479999542236328px;"><br /></span></span> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18.479999542236328px;"><b>Nervous Engine</b></span></span><br /> Frequency: Very Rare<br /> No. Appearing: 1<br /> Armor Class: 9<br /> Move: 10' (See below)<br /> Hit Dice: 100 hp total<br /> No. of Attacks: 3 per node (See below)<br /> Damage Attack: 1-10/1-10/1-10<br /> Special Attack: Spell<br /> Special Defense: No<br /> Magic Resistance: No <br /> Intelligence: High<br /> Size: See below<br /> <br /> A <b>Nervous Engine </b>is a complex network of nerve fibers running from a cerebral crown, consisting of a fleshy ring of fused heads. These nerve fibers terminate in spatially distant nodes. Each node is a cluster of sense organs and dangling ganglia. These organs cluster in corners, and can be hidden behind fixtures if desired. The nodes may be installed within a 1000' radius of the crown, although nerve fibers must be run from the crown to the site of each node. The total hit points of the nervous engine is divided between crown and nods. Up to nine nodes may be installed. Each node possesses 10 hp of the total, with the crown possessing the remaining amount (minimum 10 hp). Should the fibers connecting any node to the crown be cut, that node automatically dies.<br /> <br /> Only a specially prepared subject (usually the vivimancer himself) may don the crown. To do so, a ring of removable flesh plugs must be installed in the wearer's skull. When the wearer removes the plugs and dons the crown, its tendrils make direct contact with his brain. This enables him to sense through the organs of all nodes. He may also direct the dangling ganglia to attack, which can extend 30' from the sense organ cluster. They attack by transmitting agonizing electrical pulses into the nerve fibers of the victim. Finally, the user may cast mind affecting spells through the organ cluster targeting any perceived victim. If a node is destroyed while a user wears the crown, he must save vs. death magic or suffer 10 hp damage as well. <br /> <br /> The creation of a <b>Nervous Engine </b>is a ghastly affair. Like, the <b>Sanguinary, </b>they are generated through the 7th level vivimancer spell Create Organ Golem, found in the second part of <i><a href="http://www.maziriansgarden.blogspot.com/2014/03/the-hidden-metamorphoses.html">The Hidden Metamorphoses</a></i>. This requires a working laboratory of at least 3000gp value. Five victims must be procured and placed into long term deep slumber, usually through use of the 3rd level vivimancer spell Slumber. The victims must be arranged in a circle, with their heads dangling into a protoplasmic bath infused with the royal jelly of giant bees. Through painless surgical incisions, the brain casing of the subjects are exposed to the fluid. Within two weeks, a tough and fleshy growth will sprout form within their skull cavity, beginning to fuse the heads. At this point, their bodies will begin to rapidly waste away, sloughing off in two more weeks. In the process, all their hair is shed, and cauliflowers of neural matter sprout from every orifice. When the heads are fully fused into the cerebral crown, the neural fibers may be drawn out, and the distal nodes cultivated. The whole process of growth takes two months of active tending.<br /> <br /> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/04568198881628052274' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/04568198881628052274' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Ben L.</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://maziriansgarden.blogspot.com/2014/04/golems-organ.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://maziriansgarden.blogspot.com/2014/04/golems-organ.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2014-04-07T19:58:00-07:00'>7:58 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://maziriansgarden.blogspot.com/2014/04/golems-organ.html#comment-form' onclick=''> 6 comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-401723375'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=4202612634352350608&postID=8289056552729803027&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> </div> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> <span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='http://maziriansgarden.blogspot.com/search/label/Golems' rel='tag'>Golems</a>, <a href='http://maziriansgarden.blogspot.com/search/label/Hidden%20Metamorphoses' rel='tag'>Hidden Metamorphoses</a>, <a href='http://maziriansgarden.blogspot.com/search/label/Vivimancy' rel='tag'>Vivimancy</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'> <span class='post-location'> </span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="date-outer"> <h2 class='date-header'><span>Sunday, March 30, 2014</span></h2> <div class="date-posts"> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry uncustomized-post-template' itemprop='blogPost' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <meta content='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVUm9keHvOSekfmqjXEjKv_7MKCMNiLAAT9Oc1_regW5175Z2VIe6_5ycbjcddyi_0kRJ_O3LmxDAg2TuMtHT_4qRgLArJHLH0SXgTW-BIz2diKw49VTgaNJlGYvqLi8hasNm7yaANar8/s1600/6-way-book.gif' itemprop='image_url'/> <meta content='4202612634352350608' itemprop='blogId'/> <meta content='8096450636303932214' itemprop='postId'/> <a name='8096450636303932214'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title' itemprop='name'> <a href='http://maziriansgarden.blogspot.com/2014/03/the-hidden-metamorphoses.html'>The Hidden Metamorphoses</a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content' id='post-body-8096450636303932214' itemprop='description articleBody'> <div> <span style="font-family: inherit;">The Hidden Metamorphoses is devoted to penetrating the occult secrets of organic life. The work appears to be the product of a brilliant and disturbed mind. Although it's author's identity is unknown, he is traditionally referred to as Mosekes. <span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18.479999542236328px;">On the one hand, the book contains such a wealth of penetrating insight and potent sorcery that it seems as though its heretical doctrines must be true.

But there is an obvious and much rehearsed objection to less sophisticated formulations of the doctrine of the secret changes that predated this work, of which Mosekes was well aware. It begins with the observation that the environment of an organism is contained in a proper account of its natural history, as its natural home and sustaining life-world. Given this fact, critics ask, how can  it belong, for example, to the natural history of the terrestrial <i>velvet moth</i> to be placed in an oneiric bath composed of fluids drawn from the cerebellum of entities from the dreamworld? Mustn't we view this as an alien intervention that produces mutations and horrors, cancers and aberrations, rather than the unfolding of the previously stymied life cycle of natural beings? It is in answer to this question that Mosekes defends the heresy of Transworld Ontogenesis. According to this doctrine, all organisms are transworld phenomena, developing simultaneously--and sometimes serially--on multiple planes of existence. What we know as organisms are really only the thin terrestrial shells of unimaginably complicated beings, unfolding through countless stages across many worlds. Thus, what appears to our blinkered view as arcane and artificial interventions unlocking one of the secret changes in fact introduces elements that belong properly to the development of the organism as it unfolds in other worlds. </span><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span> <u><span style="font-family: inherit;">Part II: Autonomous Organs</span></u><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: inherit;">The second part deals with organs and biological subsystems of what are naively called "single organisms". Mosekes treats these as possessing natural histories independent of their host organism. The implication is that these organs as they appear in ordinary nature are prevented from fully developing owing to constant interference from the organism itself, often through the unwitting violence of the other organs with which they enmeshed. When provided with proper conditions, their unfettered development passes through many unknown stages, blooming in splendid and terrible forms. Through this development constructs and bio-artifacts of great value may be produced.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /> For example, the book treats the cardiovascular system of large mammals at length, including the techniques through which this system may be developed into an entity Mosekes calls the <b>Sanguinary</b>. This technique involves first liberating the intact cardiovascular system from a still living mammal. Needless to say, this process involves terrible life sustaining magics, and requires mastery of anatomy, surgical precision, and an iron stomach. Once the cardiovascular system has been removed, the bleeding heart along with its veinous root system must be carefully buried in elemental earth that has been fertilized with potent semen from the Aboleth. If properly tended to, the heart bulb will sprout a strange growth, blossoming within a fortnight into a <b>Sanguinary </b>ripe for the harvesting.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span> <br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYCwFCp8kTuyYfX_y1gokSx0iKDZ-LeCz_jonodX5MI2kSEJhPxzKLurqDTcaF3ydDEcE2Fi0RyxZt5dPisPPu4SLf8zF1-P8jVpCTq-9miJLn6nPrvk0AvGC-zWr2i4TrqTP5zEvA8Vg/s1600/Soul+of+Science+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYCwFCp8kTuyYfX_y1gokSx0iKDZ-LeCz_jonodX5MI2kSEJhPxzKLurqDTcaF3ydDEcE2Fi0RyxZt5dPisPPu4SLf8zF1-P8jVpCTq-9miJLn6nPrvk0AvGC-zWr2i4TrqTP5zEvA8Vg/s1600/Soul+of+Science+copy.jpg" width="247" /></span></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The heart bulb</span><br /> <span style="color: #666666; font-family: inherit;">Martin Diaz</span><br /> <span style="color: #666666; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></td></tr> </tbody></table> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjk7xYQ2BbscsRD8UNgk8cQaiJQ6k8yHPWCIG9DnmSe4JwhI2ejY8YPPK3OLPegQMwtyz521VoH3qhcVhdy8pwdTLg7GXQdDaV0oCwZvY95iCU6dNes6gXHpDFLknoVU6VNGz27e_QSYjg/s1600/c3391b5ddfe6305e5a5e5f786b0c492c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjk7xYQ2BbscsRD8UNgk8cQaiJQ6k8yHPWCIG9DnmSe4JwhI2ejY8YPPK3OLPegQMwtyz521VoH3qhcVhdy8pwdTLg7GXQdDaV0oCwZvY95iCU6dNes6gXHpDFLknoVU6VNGz27e_QSYjg/s1600/c3391b5ddfe6305e5a5e5f786b0c492c.jpg" width="193" /></span></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The Sanguinary</span><br /> <span style="color: #666666; font-family: inherit;">Walter Oltmann</span></td></tr> </tbody></table> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: inherit;">The <b>Sanguinary </b>is a potent construction that will only serve willingly under a master who is able to feed it. The feeding process is, unfortunately, quite grotesque. The <b>Sanguinary</b> feeds by pressing its twisting and writhing thirsty capillaries against the flesh of a living victim. These drill beneath the skin to the sweet well-springs of life sustaining blood beneath that refreshes the substance of the <b>Sanguinary</b>. The ex-sanguination is horrifically painful, and if carried to completion, leaves the victim a desiccated husk. This is take but one of many examples from this dark work.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />As Mosekes is well aware, the thesis of organic autonomy flies in the face of the traditional understanding of the principles of life. For the organism is ordinarily thought to be a harmonious unity, the parts of which sustain each other reciprocally, and work together to reproduce the whole, on which they depend in turn for their nourishment and repair. Mosekes replaces this conception with the heresy of bio-archonism. According to this strange doctrine, the organism considered as a whole is an illusion. In reality it is composed, on the one hand, of the multitude of dominated organs that often stand in antagonistic and limiting relations, and on the other hand, of a separate vital force that exercises dominion over the multitude, working to bind them together, and contain them through violence within the composite. Dimly perceived under the erroneously name of the soul, Mosekes refers to this entity instead as "the bio-archon".   </span><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span> <u><span style="font-family: inherit;">Part III: Organism as Transworld Tyranny</span></u><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: inherit;">On the face of it, the first two parts work with incompatible models of life. For, the first part treats the entire organism as a proper unit of development in the tradition fashion, only relativizing its development to many worlds. The second part, although limiting itself to the terrestrial sphere, treats the entire organism as an illusion, and introduces the model of organic antagonism and the division of the composite into bio-archon and multitude. The third part attempts a synthesis of these doctrines by presenting the bio-archon as the principle of unity holding together through its tyranny a multitude of organs developing across many worlds. The question of what sort of transworld entity the bio-archon must be to play this role receives some attention of a speculative sort. But the bulk of the third part is dedicated to something else entirely: the development of a symbolism, a concept script, for mapping and representing the baroque relations of transworld dominion that constitute the essence of life. </span><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /> </span><br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjDdcuWyoTYIjOdTax1pEd-Jc51tKOh70IInm2r4nHZMaJPxLHdYEZrZ0Ad2loP_knlqSCvs7be4MKMeB0Rh-2GF3Sud6ocuvWp_uxr0RaHORge-wz40B5eiX36Jkzczg-pnCgnDvyLZk/s1600/Symbolism+copy+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjDdcuWyoTYIjOdTax1pEd-Jc51tKOh70IInm2r4nHZMaJPxLHdYEZrZ0Ad2loP_knlqSCvs7be4MKMeB0Rh-2GF3Sud6ocuvWp_uxr0RaHORge-wz40B5eiX36Jkzczg-pnCgnDvyLZk/s1600/Symbolism+copy+2.jpg" width="210" /></span></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Mosekes' Symbolism</span></td></tr> </tbody></table> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /> This symbolism is developed with little explanation (intentionally?), and is extremely difficult to grasp. For it employs alien concepts and entirely novel modes of representation. What is worse, at crucial and unannounced points, it relies implicitly on theorems not otherwise discussed in the book. To most readers it appears to be the incomprehensible fruit of a degenerate mind.

For if one could peel back the terrestrial shell of man, and lay eyes on the unimaginably alien transworld unfolding of his being, then the secret changes of mankind too might be unlocked through which mankind ascend to unimaginable heights. And if one could only come to grasp the principle of the human bio-archon's dominion, then one could in theory extend it to encompass new organs of untold powers and potentialities, in this world and in others.
