Oh, I know what it does and how it can get away.  Since its is 3 parts, with
the mask being sentient, it will crawl away from the
napsack/rucksack/whathaveyou.  Its just Stat-wise, i can't create a
creature, post it, and not have in writing (even for my notes) how long it
can go without finding something to suck the life out.  But, point, plot,
and the like... I have everything.
I have had people want me to post "Needles" for what I made him.  He's the
guy who made a Nuke-Happy Doomie look at me and say "He survived a nuke.  I
have nothing.  Nothing I can do."  Probably the single most satisfying
moment in my young Marshalling career.  Knowing I took a Munchkin and made
himself worry a lot about his fate.  Damn Viridian Goliath power turned over
(based on a contested strength vs F=MV calculation) "Needles" vehicle and
pretty much ended the game.  Though the weakness I gave him was pretty good.
Just sucks when you confuse Regen for "Weakness: Specific" and have a
Viridian Goliath pull him a part like wings off of a fly.  I won't make that
mistake again.  Next time, he won't be the "Slasher (Shattered Coast),"  he
will be more like what he needs to be:  A Servitor of Death that won't go
down until stopped.
