Genetic Mutation: Ape
The Ape mutation is focused heavily on strength, and is typically found in gang enforcers across the globe. Many who take this mutation have taken to calling themselves "Sapiens", and claim that the result of this mutagen is a more pure human - as it supposedly brings the genetics of the human race back to their evolutionary roots.
