Mutations
Villanite has been known to shift and change during the time his friends have known him. Some of these changes have been physical and obvious, while others have been discovered only in specific scenarios and surroundings. These mutations have caught the attention of his personal doctor. Below is a collection of Tamica’s findings regarding Villanite’s mutations.
Mutation #1 - Sharp Teeth
Type: Physical
Location: Mouth
Source: Unknown
Progress: Completed
Status: Open - Villanite seems dodgy on the details that led to this mutation, but I believe it may be related to trauma.
Other Details: Shortly after his mother’s death, Villanite noticed his teeth begin to ache and become tender. The pain drove him to visit a dentist and discover that his teeth were being pushed out by a new set of sharper, pointed teeth. At this point, his teeth have completely been replaced by larger, more pointed versions of his previous teeth. Even his molars have developed sharpened points generally unexpected to be found on those kinds of teeth.
Villanite’s Thoughts: “Looks like you got all the details you need on this one. I’d rather not discuss this one any further, if that’s okay, Tamica.”
Mutation #2 - Serpent Tongue
Type: Physical
Location: Mouth
Source: Unknown
Progress: Completed
Status: Open - Due to the strangeness of Villanite’s theory on the source of this, I’m leaving this unresolved and unknown until I can get a better understanding of how his diet would have caused this.
Other Details: Villanite has an abnormally long tongue when compared to most humanoid races, and the forked tip seems to have a high concentration of highly sensitive taste buds. Both Villanite and I believe this is a result of his time spent on a reptilian-dominated planet. However, he seems to think that it has something to do with his diet while there.
Villanite’s Thoughts: “I mean, it’s a fun tongue. Women love it, and sometimes it’s kinda nice to be able to taste food in the air without having to actually eat it.”
Mutation #3 - Diphallia
Type: Physical
Location: Genital Area
Source: Succubus Magic
Progress: Completed
Status: Closed - Fully documented.
Other Details: Villanite has a second penis right above the one he was born with. According to him, it was placed on there via a spell from a succubus friend of his. I did get the chance to speak with said succubus once when she visited the Avinadal station to see Villanite, and I’m admittedly still a bit confused about how his body did what it did, but this mutation sets the bar even further than those of his tongue and teeth.
As per my conversation with Ynali, the succubus, Villanite asked her if her magic could change his body, and the two agreed that she would give him a second penis. According to both of them, some issues came up the following morning, and Villanite had to leave without the magic being dispelled, but Ynali informed me that the magic should have dispelled on its own over time.
All examinations, from surface tests to x-ray scans, show that Villanite’s second penis has completely adjusted and adapted to being a part of his body, functioning totally fine as a viable penis just like the one below it.
Villanite’s Thoughts: “To be honest, if you keep inspecting it that closely, this recording is going to become very inappropriate.”
Mutation #4 - Dragon Claws
Type: Physical
Location: Hands, Feet
Source: Consumption of Draconic DNA
Progress: Completed
Status: Closed - Fully documented.
Other Details: The flesh of Villanite’s hands has shifted and allowed for a series of what look like golden scales to develop along the top of his finger bones, knuckles, and nails. The mutation results in the appearance of metallic gold claws along his hands and feet. Villanite feels this is a result of consuming the heart of a dragon during the battle with the Dark Queen, further proving that his diet can affect his body. It does, however, beg the question of how much of a certain substance he needs to be exposed to or consume to experience a mutation.
Villanite’s Thoughts: “I always liked hand to hand combat, so when these claws came in, I was pretty psyched. Took a while to get used to how sharp they can get, though. I do end up grinding them against things sometimes just to dull or shorten them.”
Mutation #5 - Galaxy Eyes
Type: Physical
Location: Eyes
Source: Persephone Anastasia Dawn
Progress: Completed
Status: Open - The idea that Villanite can see magical energies through a physical mutation implies that there is some kind of relationship between wavelengths of light and the energies produced by the paranormal. I’ll keep this open to analyze further how his eyes process light.
Other Details: Villanite was born with more regular humanoid eyes, and when he originally discovered himself with Mutation #2, he noted that his eyes took on a more slit, snake-like appearance. However, after meeting Persephone, Villanite notes that his time spent with her resulted in a change in his eyes.
The two were on a mission together when Villanite awoke to a throbbing pain in his eyes. After the pain subsided, the two noticed the change in Villanite’s eyes, and Villanite noted that his vision was altered, as well. Ever since this mutation occurred, Villanite has seen what he refers to as auras around people and certain objects.
Villanite’s Thoughts: “Do you think they’re scary looking? I think they’re kinda freaky, but I love them. Persephone said I can see magic energy with them now, based on the way I described things. Kinda cool if that’s what it really is.”
Mutation #6 - Enhanced Regeneration
Type: Physical
Location: Body-Wide
Source: Varia Villanite
Progress: Unknown
Status: Open - Still under observation to see if his healing time continues accelerating.
Other Details: Despite repeated warnings from myself and other scientists on the space station, Villanite has consumed some of Varia’s non-sentient matter. After close monitoring, it seems this had no negative impact on Villanite; evidence shows that his time to heal from lacerations has dramatically improved.
Due to the nature of Villanite’s work, we have also documented that his time to heal from heavier injuries and broken bones has also improved, though only slightly compared to the improvement on more minor wounds.
Villanite’s Thoughts: “Yeah, not a fan of you testing this one. Didn’t we say we were done documenting this one? Why is it still open? Why do you look so happy when you’re holding a scalpel, Tamica?”
Mutation #7 - Emperor’s Grasp
Type: Paranormal
Location: Radial to Villanite
Source: Unknown
Progress: Unknown
Status: Open - Don’t even know how to approach Villanite about this, so I’m documenting it on my own for now.
Other Details: I’ve always had a strange feeling around Villanite, and as I began to speak to others, it seems I am not alone in that feeling. I never considered this to be something worth documenting in this journal, but after a discussion with Senator Idris, I feel it may be worth logging, at least.
While waiting for Villanite during a visit to the Inter-Galactic Union, I got to meet Senator Idris and pick his brain about his time with Villanite. Oddly enough, the man seemed to know more about Villanite than I expected, but I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised that Villanite has kept certain details about his past from me.
When I felt Villanite approaching, as I usually do, Idris blatantly commented on that feeling. When I pressed him on it, Idris told me about something called the Emperor’s Grasp, an essence or greater presence that surrounds people like Villanite. Villanite interrupted the discussion at that point, but I will keep this documented as a mutation in case it’s somehow similar to Mutation #5.
Villanite’s Thoughts: None.
