{{Name}} is a [[Mutations#Physical Mutations|physical mutation]] that allows the player to control the flow of their adrenaline, granting them various bonuses.


Adrenal Control grants the "Release Adrenaline" activated ability, which when used, will grant the {{qud text|&Radrenaline flowing}} status effect and will cause the mutation level of all of the player's physical mutations to increase a temporary amount based on Adrenal Control's mutation level. It will also increase the players's [[Quickness]] by a mutation level-based amount.
Adrenal Control will not increase its own level. Additionally, attributes bonuses gained by boosting mutations that grant such bonuses (such as {{favilink|Double-muscled}}) will be temporary and will not count towards satisfying [[skill]] requirements.
The cooldown of Adrenal Control is special in that it ticks down every one of your actions. Most abilites tick down every 1000 action points, potentially making Adrenal Control finish a lot faster than other mutations with a similar cooldown with high [[quickness]] or [[movespeed]] (such as during [[Sprint]]).

Adrenal Control

You regulate your body's release of adrenaline.

You can increase your body's adrenaline flow for 20 rounds.
While it's flowing, you gain +(level-based) quickness and other physical mutations gain +(level based) rank.
Cooldown: 200 rounds

Adrenal Control is a physical mutation that allows the player to control the flow of their adrenaline, granting them various bonuses.

Adrenal Control grants the "Release Adrenaline" activated ability, which when used, will grant the adrenaline flowing status effect and will cause the mutation level of all of the player's physical mutations to increase a temporary amount based on Adrenal Control's mutation level. It will also increase the players's Quickness by a mutation level-based amount.

Adrenal Control will not increase its own level. Additionally, attributes bonuses gained by boosting mutations that grant such bonuses (such as Double-muscled) will be temporary and will not count towards satisfying skill requirements.

The cooldown of Adrenal Control is special in that it ticks down every one of your actions. Most abilites tick down every 1000 action points, potentially making Adrenal Control finish a lot faster than other mutations with a similar cooldown with high quickness or movespeed (such as during Sprint).
