I seem to remember people mentioning using an ogre manikin or something like it as a SC chassis?
LA Pan has an undead "Ettin Mandragora" hero, so you'll only get it through the "Suddenly this guy appeared at your gates...!" event. It's an excellent chassis, with 3 hand slots, 2 head slots, and an L1 priest (self bless). Vine Shield + Boots of Behemoth + Regrowth and you've got an early game quasi-SC.
Aha! This will be the one then. Note to self: Don't take misfortune 3.

Thanks for the extensive answer. Some of the things you mentioned I thought of before, but some I didn't (I especially hadn't made the connection yet of being able to use the national holy spells on any undead. Me likes. ) and it certainly gives some food for thought.
