Brainslug

Mutation

Brainslug is a different kind of mutation. It gives +3 Brains, -2 Brawn, -1 Reflexes, and +40 stun resistance, as well as a few interesting perks.

Location

Radome

Advantages

Aside from it's generous brains and stun resistance bonus, you also gain the ability to talk to the slugmind using slug <any>, and cough up a brainslug larva using larva. You can infect NPCs with the larva and control them over slugnet.

Disadvantages

The slugmind drains money from you periodically, the current known rate somewhere between 3-5%. It's also possible for people on slugnet to see your current location.

Additionally, you gain stress when you are horny with the slug, a LOT of stress.

Appearance

An unnatural lump protrudes from the side of his/her head.

Slugnet

Once you've slugged an NPC, you can control them using slugnet.

For example, if you slugged 84Tom, if you wanted to have him move, you would type "slug 84Tom, go w" and then he would move to the west. You can also queue up movements, by typing "slug 84Tom, go w w e n"

You can also use slugnet to talk to any other people that have brainslug, however any mention of your name shows up as "this slug", "I" is replaced with "we", "you" is replaced with "slug" and so forth.

One misconception is that the NPC's you slug are your minions, they are not, they belong to the slugmind. This means that anybody on slugnet can order your minions about. You can use slug who to see which NPC's are currently slugged, and their locations. This also shows the locations of the players that have brainslug (Their names being "One of slug").

List of NPC's that can't be slugged

Care Dog, Heath, all shopkeeps, the courier, all animals, all robots, freaks, zombies.

Notes

It can be permanently demuted by drinking bleach at any time.
