Physical mutations

Physical mutations are mutations that make a small of large part of the body different from normal that may or may not give power and/or physical advantages. Most of the physical mutations are either caused by a freak accident and Lana using her healing powers on the damaged area resulting in a mutation, or little pete in his ghost form accidentally touching a kids avatar. Or, sometimes rarely it happening on its own with an accident.

Known mutations
Orc was one of the first physical mutation as his was developed in the first book of the series Gone. When going up to Coates academy/ up the hill with Howard Bassem looking for Caine, the two accidentally took a wrong turn on a road that lead more into the desert. When realising this Orc and Howard got out of the car not knowing where they were. But then they were approached by hungry coyote s, Orc got mauled horrendessly by the coyotes ripping up his skin and clothes, meanwhile Howard was escaping back to find Caine again. The coyotes most likely thinking Orc was dead left him alone to die in the sand. When in the sand, orc seemed to merge with the sand and gravel on the desert road, filling in all the ripped skin and flesh. This turned orc into some sort of rock beast made up of gravel, and soonly after the gravel kept on filling in bits shredded by the coyotes. After the filling in had finished (except for his cheek the only human part of him) it gave him imense strength durability, strength that of Computer Jack. This mutation is one of the much larger ones as it covered up his body other than his cheek. One annoying part of it is that he was itchy almost all the time but this seemed to stop after Gone as he never spoke of the itching again. Though this does give strength advantages, Orc resents the mutation as everyone looks at him as a monster.

Drake was also one of the first physical mutations as it was also developed in Gone. While in Coates academy cementing Sam temple, Astrid Ellison, Little Pete, Edilio, and maybe Quinn, assturd made Little Pete use his powers to free the four from the cement. When sam was freed he aimed a light laser at Drakes head but hit his arm. After, Drake had to get his arm sawed off by Diana, he took Lana “the healer” Arwen Lazar to the Gaiaphage for a new arm. The Gaiaphage mind controlled Lana to heal Drakes arm. While doing so, the arm didn’t heal properly (as she cannot heal major body parts) and instead gave Drake a much better red long whip arm.
