Mutation

"Mutation: it is the key to our evolution. It has enabled us to evolve from a single-celled organism into the dominant species on the planet. This process is slow, and normally taking thousands and thousands of years. But every few hundred millennia, evolution leaps forward."

- Professor Charles Xavier

Mutation is an alteration of a biological organism on a genetic level. Mutation is the result of damage to a body's DNA sequence either through the addition or deletion of genetic elements. A genetic mutation may produce certain observable abnormalities, such as physical deformities. This may cause one to look like a hideous friggin' freak, or worse... a total monster with almost no recognizable human characteristics. If one is really lucky however, they might end up with super-powers. In such cases, a bald know-it-all in a wheelchair might approach you and invite you to become a member of a team of mutants dedicated to fighting in justice in a world that hates and fears them. Its been known to happen from time to time. In all other cases, you just end up looking like the Elephant Man.
