Nice gear as you'd expect from those two, but as you say, grand concept.

It involved a certain Society of the Beheaded, whose members - half-crazy, Lovecraftian heads in jars - used a selection of headless bodies for various... purposes. The extra twist was that these bodies could walk and act on their own, though in a rather mindless and bestial way. (Besides Lovecraft, Burton's Sleepy Hollow movie was a strong influence back then.) I do hope you'll write your story someday. I'm truly curious about how you'd flesh the idea out. :) I told a somewhat similar story to my RPG party once, back in the old days.
