Quote:I'll say it again in case it got lost in the shuffle on the front end of this thread. I designed a race very much like this in GURPS Shapeshifters, and you are welcome to use it, either as-is or revised to fit your needs.
Blobs - naturally invertebrate and amorphous, but capable of secreting - and reabsorbing - most sorts of internal organs - bones, stomachs, etc. - according to genetic data from their own chromosomes or an outside source, if needed. The process takes several hours. Their outer skin is naturally transparent but also highly chromatophoric, and is backed by an organ which performs most of the same functions as muscle. Neural tissue is distributed evenly through the fluid that makes up most of their body mass. In short, your classic sci-fi shape-shifters. Their approach to mech-design is to create distinct structural modules which then link together.
