For example take a look at Irritable Zorn (/brest/brest.scrolls.right) as he is heavily modified from the standard merchant NPC (IIRC). Thinking on this, what mechanism is used to tell the system that dragon flesh from a custom monster is high level? Perhaps that could be adapted to your flesh altar. This also brings up the argument for female player graphics. Valkyrie, being a minor female deity (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valkyrie), would seem to me to be one to which girls would gravitate. I'm not a graphics maker or I would look at making some myself.
