It should be noted that, because the mutation system is used 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 [[:Category:Snapjaws (faction)|Snapjaws]]. These mutations are not available to be selected during character creation (though in some cases, they can be obtained during gameplay through [[cooking effects]] or other means). For a list of these, see [[:Category:Innate mutations|innate mutations]]. | It should be noted that, because the mutation system is used 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 [[:Category:Snapjaws (faction)|Snapjaws]].
