Body of Chaos
Body of Chaos [Major] by Iczer
‘Let us dance monkey boy’
The character’s body is a mass of conflicting energies that whirl around under his skin. A mutant’s mutant (even if not a mutant per se) his body continually adjusts and alters under no specific direction. Limited shape changing: every half hour, the character’s body undergoes a metamorphosis, causing the character to roll on the random mutation chart. After half an hour, these mutations vanish, to be replaced by another. In combat, the character makes the change every melee round instead, as heightened stress takes its toll.
Enhanced healing and toughness: the constantly rolling tissues in his body toughens his skin and closes old wounds. Every half hour, the character heals 4d6 damage. In combat, when the body undergoes greater stress and change, it heals 1d6 every round. He also has 40 extra SDC
Selectable mutation: as an action, once per round, the character can choose a particular advantageous mutation to assume. The character has a 45% chance (+ME attribute) +2% per level of acquiring that mutation. The acquired mutation remains for 5 minutes per level.
Immunity: The character’s constantly changing body means that he is virtually immune to being manipulated metabolically by others. He is immune to diseases, and cannot be altered against his will. Savage weaponry: The character has an enhanced physiology, and enjoys a +4 bonus to PE and PS. In addition, he adds 1d4+1 to his bare, unarmed blows in combat from the miscellaneous natural weapons that form and then disappear.
Stabilisation: The character can choose to settle this mutation down. The character has a 45% chance (+ME attribute) +2% per level of being able to settle this mutation down, a process that requires 15 minutes of meditation. Effectively this negates the power for 2 hours per level. If the character sleeps, or is knocked unconscious in that time, the duration ends. Furthermore, in times of stress (including combat) he must make a saving throw (14+ ME bonuses count) or the duration also ends.
