I recently bought a cheap dark corduroy jacket from The Bay of E, and it has sat forlornly on the rail for some time. After seeing what some enterprising soul had done with a pith helmet, a little light bulb went off, and I thought 'I could do that!' Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the Octojacket:

It a "Drakh Keeper"  The Drakh also grow parasitic extensions of their being, known as Keepers, on their bodies. The Keepers are partially sentient creatures resembling a large, flesh-covered nervous system with protruding legs that also function as probosci to insert and innervate the nervous systems of other beings. The Keepers function as remote control systems for the Drakh's conscripted servants; they attach a Keeper to a host organism as a means of controlling and monitoring the person through telepathic relay. This control, however, can be neutralized through the consumption of large quantities of certain chemicals, such as alcohol. A Keeper is primarily a passive agent that merely monitors and relays information, but is also capable of direct control and neurological interference such as pain induction, paralysis, or physical violence. In their conscious state, a Keeper is invisible. A Keeper can never be fully removed from the host; the internal segments will break away from the outer shell and regenerate the full body from inside. A Keeper can only be destroyed by killing the Drakh from which it was spawned. (The spoiler comes from here)

Oh...my old war wound? I got that at The Battle of Dorking. Very nasty affair that was, I can tell you. The Ministry of Tea respectfully advises you to drink one cup of tea day...for that +5 Moral Fibre stat.

Shouldn't an Octojacket have eight sleeves?..or is that a Coat of Arms?..I can never remember.
Still..nice work. He looks great.

Not a fan of the googly eyes, but it looks very cool nonetheless. I was just about to ask for a picture of you wearing it, but there it is
