Here are some of mine:

[[Cavern Harpy]] – So much ETB shenanigans!

[[Sultai Emissary]] – Nice value card and possibly a really cool payoff if you have something good on top of your library.

[[Moldgraf Scavenger]] – Pauper Goyf??

This is a neat idea. What about replacing some of the [[Corrupted Conviction]] / [[Village Rites]] with creatures like [[Carrion Feeder]] or [[Viscera Seer]] or [[Lampad of Death's Vigil]] ? You lose some card advantage but you don't have to find another Village Rites before you can make your next sacrifice.

I think carrion feed is a good idea, at least, but I would be careful about going too deep into pure sac outlets. The Groff and the Morkrut Behemoth are already doing double duty as good manifest targets and sac outlets (and decent topdecks). Higher creature density makes manifest better in general, though.

I worry that without sufficient card draw or filtering you can end up with some pretty dead hands. Perhaps [[Elven Farsight]] is a safe inclusion that will always be helpful and is great for setting up manifest, too.
