You are now in mutagenics.

There are three SINKS, four TUBES, a TERMINAL, and a LAB BENCH with CHEMICALS 'N STUFF.

Man this is a big room.

Uh, get a closer look at those tubes (but preferably don't let anything out just yet, assuming that's even an option) and then go check out that terminal (even though we probably can't do much with it).

Resist urge to play with the chemicals; there's no way that ends well.

Free the Mewtwo.

>>60799
Examine WATER FAUCETS
Smash open tubes
Drink chemicals
Use terminal (hopefully this one has SOLITAIRE).

Let's not free anything or down any potentially lethal chemicals just yet. Take a look at the tubes and terminal before the vandalism starts.

You move over to the faucets, taking the opportunity to clean out the wound across your eye you sustained earlier. A panel in the wall recedes back, sliding away to reveal a small mirror. As you gaze back at your reflection, you notice something rather not of the norm.

...the gash is already healed.

Become more aware that you are a research subject. All of that 'termination, recovery, termination, recovery' talk? You probably have a similar history.

Don't worry. You'll find a way to avoid the recovery part this time. Let's start by examining the other tubes. Releasing other horrors might provide a distraction under which you could escape.

Honestly we probably shouldn't be surprised after reading those log things.

It's nice to know that we can recover from pretty serious hits! We still shouldn't let ourself get banged up too much though; bad things will probably result if we do.

So, uh, go have a look-see at those tubes, then?

Also, say "ATHENAA!!!"

Beware of the camera up on the ceiling.

>>60862

>>60848
Well that would also explain why your hand isn't hurting as much as it was a few moments ago. Yay, regeneration.

The tubes appear to hold three subjects, each of varying species. There is a small LCD panel rising from the base of the tubes with brief information on what is held within. You read the first one.

NAME: Krubgyf
SPECIES: Kobold
MUTATION: Infra-Red Vision
CAUSE OF DEATH: Severe hemorrhaging of the visual cortex.

>>60861
Who the hell is Athena?

>>60862
You cast a wary gaze at the camera mounted in the corner. It doesn't appear to be on.

>>60871
>You cast a wary gaze at the camera mounted in the corner. It doesn't appear to be on.

Oh good. Now you can start schlicking without worrying about it.

>>60799
Check what's in the tubes. Check the info on the terminals next to the tubes. If they're alive and seem both physically and mentally stable, let them out.

>>60873
See if you can let EVERYONE out, this should be fun >:3

NAME: Rezzak
SPECIES: Sergal
MUTATION: Acid Spit
CAUSE OF DEATH: Ingestion of acidic saliva dissolved subjects esophagus, stomach, and parts of other neighboring organs.

...You're beginning to detect a theme here.

Yeah, Tube #3 will almost certainly contain some subject who died as a direct result of whatever experiment was tried on them.

Give it a look too, anyway, and then head over to that terminal.

>>60878
The experimenters being fucking useless at mutations?

>>60878
And check if the empty tube has anything noted on it, too.

>>60893
Yeah, good thing regeneration is hard to screw up that way.

>>60898
Let me introduce you to my friend, uncontrolled cellular growth.

>>60878
Fix that slouch, young lady.

>>60898
Well, you can always end up with the usual 'Pile of misfired organs and extra bits', or '250-pound tumor that used to be your body', or even the weird ones like 'Can't move away from set body state', 'Must rebreak bones a lot because they heal in less than a second', or 'All of your body is a biohazard because it tries to remake anything it touches into you'.
I would say Regeneration is hard to screw up.

Well at least one of them isn't dead. Yet. Or something.

>>60909
...I DIDN'T NEED TO KNOW THAT, THANK YOU.

We must continue the search for knowledge, go to the terminal. Feel free to knock on the goblin's glass to disturb him.

>>61019
Just trying to help.
Actually, your regeneration is probably a factor of your Xommish heritage, meaning that none of that will happen unless it's funny to him. It should also mean that you have additional powers, but they're the kind of thing I, for one, would prefer not to tap unless it's urgent.

Anyway, check the fourth one, then see if you can decant the Blue.

Well, now it is really tempting to play with the chemicals, I guess?

Although of course it'd help if we knew what any of them were.

>>61094
Delicious. Does it say anything else?

2 oranges, 1 Azuls (Blue for spanish), and a purple

>>61100
Damn, I'm an idiot.

So I guess that brings us to the question of "do we really want to drink something called 'mutagenic enhancer'..."

Hell, go for it.

>>61100
Close, but I believe "Azure" is what that chemical name is referencing.

Ironically, Azure is Blue-Cyan, making my assumption close.

At the very least, mix some up and carry it around.

(Mutagen is the "Upgrade" item of Aberration. You'll be awarded it usually after a puzzle challenge or combat challenge. They allow you to unlock new mutations to peruse at your discretion. The batch you have now will allow you access to your first Major Mutation.)

With a bit of concentration, you manage to morph your arm into a variety of shapes - ranging from the standard tentacle to a wickedly clawed monstrous hand. After a few minutes of practice, it almost seems natural to you.

Still feels a little weird though.

Indeed is she breaks others out of the cells it could help cover her own damage escape. Or we could release an evil unlike the world has seen since the old days.

No way in hell we're gonna be able to pull that off, even if we can convince them we were stopping the gobbo they'll wise up to the whole mutant thing pretty fast.

Free the goblin.

Free the gobbo and whip hand yourself to the air duct before anything happens. With luck they'll think it was it rather than you making the ruckus.

>>63632
Smash open the tubes, eat the hearts of the occupants. Maybe you'll gain their strength, or something.
Alternatively, the ventilation duct looks like a good plan. Smash the grate, then grappling-hook arm your way up there.

If you can, try and transform your body and escape through the sink pipes. But before you do, take the vent cover off.
