  1. What if you roll two-headed for the second head?

  2. I rather think about rolling additional abilities, as INT, WIS and CHA for another head, not additional mutations :-)

  3. I don't know how I missed this when it first went up--really nice work! Any chance you might make this a Living Table over at DM Muse?

    We've been messing around with Mutant Future and the mutations from that rule-set could use some adjusting to make things work better with Labyrinth Lord.
