Genetic Mutation: Salamander
The splicers that choose the Salamander mutation are often tacticians, or members of highly renowned military forces. While they are found outside of the military, it's rare for them to be found outside of law enforcement. The newest of the publicly available mutagens, the Salamander is thought to be the highest quality and most advantageous by many. Their gentile appearance is largely to credit for this, and they've been affectionately given the nickname "Newts".
