This mod adds a new class named "Mutant" to the game. It is intended for people who want to replay the game with a class that allows the player to build their character as they see fit. Become a magic-abosrbing caster, an feral warrior who can make armour out of flesh or a healer who can control clouds. With 30 abilities to pick from, the possibilities are endless. If you don't like your skill-set, respec again and choose a new combination of abilities!

What is this class about?

Your body is being genetically modified by what has been named X-Gene. As you level up, you unlock abilities called "Mutations" which you can pick-n-choose at certain level. The mutations which go from something as simple as having advantage in sunlight to game-changing skills such as summoning a custom-made robot companion. You can see the list of unlockable passives below:

Gained on level up

• X Gene (Level 1): Your powers are innate, not spells to be verbally casted. You aren't affected by silence.
• Adamantium Skeleton (Level 5): Your constitution and armour class is increased by 1. Your max HP is increased by 18 points.
• Cerebro (Level 8): The logical part of your brain has developed. Gain expertise in Insight.

Phoenix State

At Level 12, you have to choose between 3 Phoenix states.

• Phoenix State (Fallen): Gain the ability to see through darkness. Whenever your HP falls below 50%, create a cloud of darkness around you.
• Phoenix State (Flaming): Instead of taking fire damage, you heal HP equal to twice of your Mutant level. Additionally,
  you gain Flaming Aura for 5 turns.
• Phoenix State (Dark): Upon killing an enemy, absorb their energy to recharge the lowest level spell slot which isn't already full by 1.
  

The cantrips and spells that are available to a Mutant are the ones that could be plausible "Superpowers", not magic and gods. You will not be casting spells where you pray to the gods to heal your allies, infuse a weapon with magic or summon demons. Spellcasting works as usual, no custom mechanics.

While the Mutations are sure to give you an edge, at Level 12 your body becomes the host of a powerful malevolent cosmic entity called the Phoenix Force. It lends you a very significant passive of your choice which may change the way you approach combat if used creatively.

Baldur's Gate 3 doesn't let you level up a class beyond Level 12 but if you choose to do so using a mod, the Phoenix Force takes it as an act of defiance and gets pissed. I will not spoil what happens after but what I can tell you is that you will be choosing a subclass at Level 15.

> Primary Ability: Charisma
> Spellcasting Ability: Charisma
> Dialogue Options: Bard

Installation
The recommended way to install this mod is using BG3ModManager. If you wish to do it manually, just copy the .pak file from this mod C:\Users\{Your_Username}\AppData\Local\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Mods.

You will need ImprovedUI and ImprovedAssets from here If you want class and subclass icons to work. The class itself will work just fine without them.

Optional

If you plan on Leveling up beyond Level 12, you can use the UnlockLevelCurve mod.

HEY HEY HEY! DEADPOOL HERE! This guy is a flipping moron, you MUST use the Better Dual Wielding mod OR YOUR SPECIAL PARTS WILL CATCH ON FIRE. (REAL)

Progression
Level 1-12



Level 13-20
