, those where terror beasts. But I still don't see what the problem of spawning 'into' or as an ewok is really. Droids would be a little odd to be sure, but ewoks? No probs from my end.
Can you make the skeleton invisible and code what looks like an ewok skin onto it? I'm sure the hit boxes will be strange, but it's a start. It could be like an ewok costume on an invisible skeleton or sum such. Just brainstorming out loud.
