Mutation selection

Mutations are one aspect of character creation in Caves of Qud. They provide the bulk of character customization (at least for players playing as a Mutant) due to their variety and number, and can be considered roughly analogous to the Cybernetics available to True Kin. There are over 70 mutations available.

It should be noted that, because the developers use the mutation system to handle any special abilities, many creatures have "mutations" which can be thought of as much closer to natural traits or abilities than actual genetic mutations, such as the Heightened Smell and Night Vision common to all Snapjaws.
