Mutations
Mutations offer you a means of rapid character development, as well as access to active abilities. Every few thousand xp, you're offered an additional mutation slot, which you may fill with a corresponding mutation. Their locations are documented in Injection Junction in Freedom City (marked IJ on your map).
Many mutations have downsides that accompany their perks. All of them, at the very least, take up a valuable mutation slot. Some are further limited; you can only have three “soak” mutations, for instance. Other times, some mutations are incompatible with others, like Zombie and Hyperimmune. Finally, all mutation choices are almost permanent; mutations can only be removed with the demutation chamber on Stormfront, which is a difficult and costly process. With all these factors in mind, it's smart to consider your mutation choices carefully. Some mutations require others in order for you to take them. Information regarding individual mutations is available in their respective help files.
General Mutations
| Mutations | Description | Location |
| Enigma | You are a complete mystery to others. People can't accurately determine how strong you are, or what ailments you suffer from. In fact, your mysterious aura is so thick that it sometimes affects your own senses. Coincidentally, this makes you pretty cool. +2 cool -1 senses You cannot be diagnosed, appraised, or psychoanalyzed. @buffs and brag are hidden.Visible mutations and age are hidden. | Gangland, Heaven Bar |

Lord knows you've got plenty of that to spare. +1 wrestle -3 focus +35% stun resist +30% KO resist You can't help but faceplant empty cans after chugging them. headbutt command: Rolls wrestle to slam your head against an opponent's head.

| Jammer | Your brain produces a constant low-level psychic static which protects you from psi-induced debuffs. A psionic fireball will still hurt as much as a regular one, mind you. Furthermore, you gain the jam command to actively disrupt the focus of everyone in the room. The existence of this mutation is tenuous and it may be removed depending on how it interacts with the new focus system.-25 focus EMP damage immunity Jam immunity jam command: Severely reduce the focus of everyone in the room.Incompatible with: All focus mutations | Firefield |
Skin Mutations
Soak mutations (or “Skin mutations”) are limited to three per player. Level 2 mutations are all upgrades to level 1 mutations and require their level 1 counterpart. You can have 3 soak mutations in total, consisting of either three level 1 mutations or two level 1 and one level 2.

Movement Mutations
Movement or mobility mutations are perks that add scouting or mobility options to a character. They currently come in three “paths”, and only one path can be chosen: Phaser, Clairvoyance, or Leapfrog, plus its respective upgrade, and none of the others.
Except for Leapfrog you must have a Psi Amp in hand (or be a hideous freak) to use these.
Level 1
| Mutation | Description | Location | Upgrade |
| Leapfrog | Powerful leg sinews and hollow bones let you leap up cliffs and over gaps. Your bounding strides also make your overall walking speed somewhat faster. You're left more fragile, losing brawn and becoming more susceptible to beatings. +1 dodge -1-3 beat resistance -30% broken bone resistance +80% broken leg resistance Increased movement speed leap command: Leap up or down climbs, or multiple tiles in any directionIncompatible with: All other level 1 movement mutations, Lithodermis | Fetid Swamp | Flight |
| Clairvoyance | You gain the power to see using not your eyes, but your mind. Shimmers of residual psychic energy become visible to you, as well as the presence of malevolent spirits. Since you no longer need eyes to see, you will be able to see in the dark, but too much psychic energy will cloud your senses. You will also be able to project your consciousness, separating it from your body. This will allow you to invisibly wander the world. +3 focus You have perfect vision in all conditions Can see psi shimmers left by other projecting clairvoyants scan command: Detect projections and ghost on current tilepulse command: Give nearby projected players psiblockproject command: Project your consciousness around the map in an invisible ghost formwhisper command: Covertly whisper messages to people while projectingIncompatible with: All other level 1 movement mutations, Jammer | Luskentyre, Cave of All Souls | Medium |

Level 2
| Mutation | Description | Location |
| Flight | Combining your enhanced legs and bones with a focused psychic boost, you can actually leap into the air and take flight! Gives you the ability to fly, climb, dive and land - imagine a faster jetpack that doesn't blow up. This makes it a neat choice for low Focus builds that will neither go Blink nor Medium.fly command: Launch yourself into the sky.land x command: Land on something.dock with x command: Dock with another flying object, like the Skydock.climb command: Increase your altitude.dive command: Decrease your altitude.fall command: Stop flying and fall to the ground. Largely useless. | Mount Fisty, Summit |
| Medium | Allows you to seek out other players and some NPCs. The higher your focus, the more accurate the roll. If your focus is high enough, you will accurately pinpoint the area that they currently reside. However they will be able to either detect that someone is seeking them and if their focus is high enough they will detect who is seeking them, or even detect where they are being sought from. Seek your targets with care! +1 focus You can see auras around other players seek command: Uses focus to ascertain a player or mob's location. | Stormfront Island |
| Blink | Gives you the ability to blink to a random place using focus. If your focus is high enough, you can also successfully blink <area> for precise transportation. The higher your focus, the lower the chance of blinking to an undesired location. Regardless of that, you will always have the risk of telefragging (blinking into a tile with someone else in it, causing you to explode). It has an interesting effect when combined with Hooligan.blink command: Can either randomly teleport, or teleport to a specified zone. | Necropolis Heart, Labyrinth |
Focus Mutations
Radically different from Hell, Psionics utilize both psionic amplifiers found in the world and psi points in order to utilize active abilities. The effectiveness of these mutations do not scale up with focus skill, but you must have a certain amount (around 20 total) to use them successfully.
You must have Psi Amp in hand (or be a hideous freak) to use these.
| Mutation | Description | Location |
| Conduit | Generate electrical energy with psionics to recharge electrical devices. You can also imbue yourself or a friend with electrical and EMP resistance for a period. +2 focus -10-20 EMP resistance | Diablo Seco |
| Aegis | Gain an active 'shield' command that enables you to shield yourself from either physical or elemental attacks for a brief period at the cost of your reflexes. +2 focus -10-20 EMP resistance | Canyon's Depths |
| Healing Hands | Your psionic abilities have expanded to include a soothing touch that heals mental afflictions. Additionally, you may use the 'res' ability to attempt to resurrect a corpse. +2 focus +1 medic -10-20 EMP resistance | Macero |
| Mind Flayer | Reach out and touch someone… with your MIND! Grants the ability to inflict various status effects onto things with nothing but the power of your brain. +2 focus -10-20 EMP resistance | Scrap Woods |
| Solar Flare | Use your psionic abilities to create a blinding flash, disrupting your opponent's perception. +2 focus -10-20 EMP resistance | Screaming Chasm |
| Atrophy | Use your psionic abilities to rapidly waste away your opponent's musculature, weakening them. +2 focus -10-20 EMP resistance | Watery Fissure |
| Salamander | Webby sticky hands, great for climbing and swimming (but problematic when crafting). Gives the ability to 'mend', healing broken bones and damage. +4 climb +4 swim -1 craft +1 focus | Shoreline |
Racial Mutations
These are some of the most powerful mutations, and all of them fundamentally change a character's playstyle in some way. Many players take one and plan their entire build around it. Most of these are mutually exclusive with each other.
| Mutation | Description | Location |
| Robot | Become a walking, talking machine. You won't benefit from much in the way of drugs and you'll leech off other people's electricity like a jerk, but you WILL gain the ability to repair yourself. Additionally, you gain access to a line of robot-exclusive implants such as a long range scanner and a set of flaming fists. All this technology isn't cheap though! Access to robot-specific weapons and implants. No thirst or hunger. You run on batteries and must recharge periodically. +2 repair +3-8 slash resistance +3-8 stab resistance +2-6 shot resistance Immunity to bleed damage Immunity to suffocation damage Immunity to wasting damage Immunity to radiation damage Immunity to crazy damage -40-80 EMP resistance +A VERY LARGE list of resistances to other things that humans would normally be vulnerable to.

| Abomination | You're a hideous freak who's all grown up. Into a truly hideous abomination. Your mother must be very proud…if you ever had one. Of course, wearing clothes or armour might be tricky with such a mishappen body, not to mention getting people to touch you.

Ripper Claws upgraded to Abomination Fangs and Claws. You constantly irradiate people around you. Armor thickness limits are reduced to 4. Only other freaks and abominations can medically assist your hideous form. Your corpse destroys all of your items and explodes in a shower of acid blood on death.

| Chud | Become a twisted, disturbing sewer-dwelling creature. You find moving around more difficult outdoors or in the light, but access to special housing, shortcuts through the sewers, and the ability to summon loyal minions to help you kill stuff make up for it.

| Barnacle | You're a fucker idiot with a damaged hole and a tiny, wet dick. But more importantly, your hands have been replaced with mutant tentacles that could be used as whips.

Radiation Mutations
Radiation mutations are given randomly per tick at around 10 rads and don't actually take up any mutation slots. Though some of them are good, most of them are negative and they are always removed upon recloning.
| Mutation | Effects | Message when Acquired | Visible Effects |
| chameleon | +3 sneak -1 reflexes | Your skin feels briefly like it's on fire, and large black patches appear all over it. You look at your hand, and realize you can see the floor reflected on it. | ReadTheFineWiki is hard to get a fix on. He shifts in and out of sight, seemingly at random. |

It is shrunken and underdeveloped, but its eyes occasionally focus on you. |
