Unstable Genome

You gain an extra mutation, but it doesnt manifest right away. Whenever you gain a level, there is 33% chance that your genome destabilizes and you get to chose from 3 random mutations.


Advantages

  • You can potentially gain (semi) random mutation at a fast pace
  • You could gain mutation combinations that cost more than your alloted points.

Disadvantages

  • You could get unlucky and not get any mutations for a while before it starts to pick up
  • You could get mutations that cost very little, making it better to have just chosen them at startup.
