Double-muscled

You are possessed of hulking strength.

+(level based) Strength
(level based) chance to daze your opponent on a successful melee attack for 2-3 rounds

Double-muscled is a physical mutation that increases the player's Strength. Additionally, every melee attack a creature with Double-muscled makes that hits and successfully penetrates has a mutation level based chance to daze their target for 2-3 rounds. This effect functions similarly to dazing caused by a critical hit from a cudgel, and will stun creatures that are already dazed. A single attack can daze more than once if there are multiple sources of daze, such as a cudgel's critical hit or Bludgeon. This can stun a target with a single blow.
