Forerunner mutation

Mutation was a Forerunner term refering to customized biological maturation to new forms or rates. The process was typically performed between two to five times over the course of a lifetime.

In society, a Forerunner's mutation determined the individual's place within their family, Maniple, or guild and was always patterned after the individual's mentor, typically but not always the parent.

Brevet mutation was a term used to refer to the undertaking of risky, ad hoc mutations that carried higher risk of complication.
