I`m making a campaign for my friends, and i need a real big group of baddies. I`ve decided to make a race called Frehdi (you are welcome to come with better ideas) wich is a sort of shadow race. they are like humans, without mouth, nose etc. they are made out of a sort of black dripping substance. and then comes the best part. the psionic graft weapon. they will have weapons grafted permanently to their hands, but they suffer no penalty on hand based skills. i`ve decided on the human names on the different ranks.(all you creative people can come for uniqe names for evry rank) could some of you try and come (if you bother) with some ideas on rules for them? i have made my own, but i need ideas. and if yours are better...

And the names in their order of CR. starting with the lowest class, and what weapon they have grafted:
Fetcher ( two shortswords)
Archer (shortbow)
Runner (two shortswords)
Hunter ( Can swith between longbow and two lonswords)
Fighter ( two longswords)
Archer captin (compsite longbow)
Captin (two battleaxes)
Beastmaster (whip)
sargeant ( Halbeard*)
General ( Greatsword*)

*needs two hands. wields in one hand untill battle. then the other hand grafts in to the weapon.

Sounds like they're outsiders (not strange enough to be aberrations). That's about all of the rules I can offer, as you're very vague about this.

What would happen if their weapon was sundered? Also, is it treated as a natural attack or as a manufactured weapon (or both)?
