Fleshwarping
To make Fleshwarped creature, you are required to take the Fleshwarper feat. You can find some details of the Template ( Here)
Feat: Fleshwarper
Requirements: Craft (alchemy) 5 ranks, Heal 5 ranks, evil alignment, Cast Level 5, Augment Grafting (Fleshcrafting Grafts) (You also need a gm to watch over the creation process and it can’t be done via downtime.)
It is important to note that there are some races and creatures that can't be fleshwarped. Best examples are Dwarfs and the fey, Dwarfs have never been successfully fleshwarped (in game it means that they are immune to the effects and die unsuccessfully ending the process) and the fey are particularly resilient to the process.
The entire fleshwarping process requires 1 day per Hit Die of the final fleshwarped creature. During this time, the fleshwarper must succeed at a Craft (alchemy) check with a DC equal to the creation DC of the fleshwarped creature (15 + the final fleshwarped creature’s Hit Dice) each day. Creating a fleshwarped creature takes a number of days equal to 1 + the final fleshwarped creature’s CR. The fleshwarper can’t gain the benefit of aid another nor can she take 10 on these checks. Due to the delicate nature of this process, the crafting cannot be interrupted or paused. Failure indicates the subjects undergoing the fleshwarping process takes 1d3 points of Constitution damage, which can’t be healed until the process is complete, and that day’s work doesn’t count toward the total creation time. If a fleshwarping subject’s Constitution damage (whether from this failure or the final Constitution damage at the conclusion) ever equals or exceeds its Constitution score, its body collapses into protoplasmic goo. Creatures slain in such a fashion can’t be raised from the dead except by true resurrection or equally powerful magic, and if any of the component creatures break down in this way, the final fleshwarp fails. During the entire process, the subject is racked with the agony of the changes it is undergoing. At the conclusion of the fleshwarping process, the final creation takes 2d6 points of Constitution damage. A successful DC (15 + the final fleshwarped creature’s Hit Dice) Heal check made by an attending participant can mitigate the suffering a subject undergoes, reducing this Constitution damage to 1d6 points. If the subjects survive through each day, and the final Heal check, they become the listed Fleshwarp. Their sheet will need to be changed to reflect their new race and resubmitted for approval as such. The alchemical components for fleshwarping are expensive, difficult to create, and expended after a single use. The ingredients for fleshwarping vary from one practitioner to the next, but often include corrosive fungi, poison from several breeds of giant insects, assorted pulverized oozes, essences from a chaos beast, protean spittle, and other exotic reagents. These reagents have a combined cost of 10,000 gp per subject to be fleshwarped in addition to other costs associated with specific fleshwarping procedures. You may only make the fleshwarped creatures that are used as examples here. Also you may only fleshwarp npcs or creatures you can control that arent cohorts or animal companions. They arent inherently loyal to their creator so it would be an opposed Diplomacy/Intimidate check against the Fleshwarped creatures will save (If they arent stated out and they’re on the example list, the gm must stat it out)

Acquiring Fleshwarp Mutations
Any long-term magical hazard can potentially carry the risk of fleshwarp mutation. Exposure to polluted alchemical labs, vile curses, bizarre rituals, wild magic zones, and cursed magic items are all good examples of fleshwarp mutations sources. A source of fleshwarp mutation is a hazard and is assigned a corresponding CR that reflects its relative severity. For every day a living creature is exposed to a fleshwarp mutation source, that creature must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC = 15 + the CR of the corruptive source). Success means the creature has fought off the fleshwarping effects for the time being. On the first failed save, the exposed creature immediate gains an early fleshwarp mutation and takes 1d3 points of Wisdom damage (or 1d6 points of sanity damage, if using the sanity system) due to the sudden and horrific nature of the metamorphosis. The second failed saving throw while the creature is within the same area increases the severity of the mutation. The creature gains an advanced mutation, and takes 1d6 points of Wisdom damage (or 2d4 points of sanity damage). Once a creature has at least one advanced mutation, further exposure within the same area causes another advanced mutation on a failed save. However, this level of physical deformity is extremely taxing on a mutated creature, and each subsequent new mutation imposes a cumulative –2 penalty to the creature’s Constitution score as long as the fleshwarped creature has the mutation. If the total penalties from mutations are greater than or equal to a character’s normal Constitution score, its body can’t support all the conflicting mutations, and it either dies or spontaneously warps into a mad, horrific creature. Fleshwarp mutation effects are transmutation effects, and may also be poison effects based on the nature of the corruption causing the mutations. All mutations are extraordinary abilities. Fleshwarp mutations can be healed with curative magic. Lesser restoration, restoration, or greater healing magic can remove all early fleshwarp mutations. Greater restoration, heal, or restoration can remove all advanced fleshwarp mutations (check the template for the chart). Table: Early Fleshwarp Mutations| d100 | Mutation | Description |
