Players who choose to begin as a mutant have 12 mutations points to spend on their character. Individual mutations cost anywhere from 1 to 5 mutation points. The player may also select a defect, which counts for somewhere between -1 and -4 points, potentially allowing the selection of additional non-defect mutations as a tradeoff. | Players who choose to begin as a mutant have 12 mutations points to spend on their character.
