Emitter (発動 Hatsudō, lit. "Activation")-type Mutations have the ability to either release certain substances, or alter materials around them in certain ways.
They usually require a conscious effort to activate and some even require large amounts of concentration in order for them to remain active
Transformation (変形 Henkei)-type Mutations cause the user to take on a temporary alteration of some kind. Transformation-type Quirks allow the user to temporarily "transform" their body in a variety of manners, sometimes enhancing existing features or perhaps adding new features to the body altogether. Transformation-types generally affect the user exclusively, but there are rare exceptions.
Mutant (異形 Igyō)-type Mutations can have a wide variety of features and abilities depending on the individual, but the common similarity seems to be that they are a part of the user's physicality, causing the user to exhibit irregular bodily features that generally have some sort of purpose to them. As a result, they are passively active and, at a glance, are the most identifiable.
Old System: {sorting method, mechanics still valid}
Investing In mutations:
A Mutation can Slowly get stronger over time, a mutant can consume skill points to increase the mutation rank. Only one point can be spent per mutation per level.
Mutation Score Threshold:
Outside of Gene type Max Ranks = 4
Primary/Secondary Gene type Max ranks of 12 and 8 respectively
Singular Gene type max ranks 20
One single mutation per template is that Mutant's Overcharge mutation.
Its max rank is 25.
Cannot be out of gene type.
(Natural Mutant template roll 1d10 to find out which type you are, Engineered mutant is chosen by player or DM depending on the situation.)
Mutation Checks: Roll 1d20 + mutation point modifier & ability score modifier : 1d20+ Mutation rank & Ability Mod
This also becomes the difficulty number to save against a mutation, unless otherwise stated the save becomes: Base 10 + Mutation rank + Ability Mod. [Defects with Mutation ranks Equaling 0 use their defect cost in its place.]
