You may phase through solid objects for brief periods of time.
Cooldown: (level based) rounds
Duration: (level based) rounds
Phasing is a physical mutation that grants the ability to willingly shift between out-of-phase, or "phased", and in-phase. Being phased makes the player physically intangible to any creature or object that is not phased itself, or that is not omniphase.
The player is able to pass through solid structural objects while phased, such as walls. If the player is phased and standing inside a wall that is surrounded by 8 other walls, and then phases back in, they will violate the Pauli exclusion principle, killing them instantly. Otherwise, the player will be shunted into a nearby empty spot once they phase back in.
Phasing grants the "Phase" ability, which can be toggled on or off to phase the player in and out, respectively. It's cooldown is not incurred until the player phases back in, whether manually or through the duration running out.
If a creature is forced to phase back in for any reason, such as by coming into contact with 
normality gas, the creature will suffer 
2d62-12 (Avg: 7) damage.
Formulas
The following formulas are used to determine duration and cooldown based on mutation level.
| Duration | (6 + Level)
|
|---|---|
| Cooldown | (103 - 3 × Level)
|
Cooldown will be further modified by willpower, as is typically the case with most activated abilities.

Advantages
- Provides an extremely effective panic button
- Allows for easy production of phase webs if combined with the Spinnerets mutation
- Allows for easy exploration of areas with many security doors without requiring keycards or Psychometry
Disadvantages
- High cost at character creation
- If the player (or any creature) phases in inside a wall which is surrounded on all sides by other walls, they instantly die, making phasing risky in certain situations
- Requires significant mutation level investment to counteract the low duration and high cooldown
