I didn't mean I dislike the randomness, it's just that I prefer selectable abilities on a menu, preferably differentiated by power level. Like the astral construct menus.
Ditto for the hordlings. Hmm...

Slaad Chaotic Mutations
Not bad, although I don't like random rolls for stuff like this.
Also, how do you rule on the 50% chance of being mistaken for a red/blue/hezrou/whatever?

Heh, that's because you're not a slaadi, Nemui. Where's xanxost when you need him?
This reminds of the hordlings charts in the MM 1E.
