Mutations
Mutations (rules, examples, misc) posted in Gamma World forum comment posted by derek_holland The appearance of an egg head to show superhuman intelligence is cliche in the extreme. Here are three other possibilities:
- Horns filled with brain tissue. The mutant usually use special helmets to protect these horns as damaging them reduces the number of mental mutations they can use.
- Projected images of calculations and thoughts. (Not memories as they do not accumulate those any faster than other people.) These may be insightful or mind bending, the latter if they cycle just slow enough for understanding but fast enough to make comprehension difficult.
- Branches or antlers that have internal and external neural circuits that glow when used and then are shed. These mutants have significant INT bonuses but can use them only occasionally as the branches/antlers regrow in a matter of days to months.
