	Every mutant gets a role, even the NPCs.

Each role also has a Key Attribute that allows you to begin with said attribute at 5. There is also a selection of Talents that are limited to certain roles.		Every mutant gets a role, even the NPCs.

	Mutant is a series of Swedish role-playing games that were developed and published by Target Games. The current version is developed by Fria Ligan under license by Cabinet Entertainment and published in Swedish and English by Fria Ligan and Modiphius respectively. It currently consists of three games (four in Swedish) that use the same system and can be played together (much like how [[World of Darkness]] splats function), with the first being the eponymous Year Zero. The second is Mutant: Genlab Alpha, in which you play as [[Furry\|mutant anthropomorphic animals]] [[Awesome\|leading a revolt against your robotic overlords]]. In the third, Mechatron, you play a [[Men of Iron\|robot who suddenly finds it has gained self-awareness]] [[Paranoia\|troubleshooting]] in a crumbling robot city. And in the fourth, Elysium, you play as [[Humanity Fuck Yeah\|un-mutated humans]] keeping the peace in an [[Fallout\|underground bunker-city]] like some kind of badass [[commissar]]/[[Judge Dredd]] hybrids.

	Mutant uses a simple [[dice pool]] mechanic similar to World of Darkness, except with d6's instead of d10's. You add up the number of points you have in a skill, its attached attribute, as well as any bonus dice from gear, and roll that many d6's. Any 6's rolled results in a success, but if you fail and Push the roll, any [[Fail\|1's]] rolled have different additional results, all of them equally shitty, depending on which type of die rolled the 1 (attribute, skill, or equipment). A 1 on a base (attribute) dice results in trauma to that particular attribute (but also nets you a Mutation Point, so silver linings), and a 1 on a gear ~~die~~ results in the gear in question becoming broken and its bonus reduced by a point. A 1 on a skill die doesn't do anything extra. Due to this, Modiphius sells special dice for Mutant with different colors for the dice (yellow for base dice, green for skill dice, and black for gear dice), and the "radiation" symbol in the 6's place, "biohazard" symbol in the 1's place on the base dice, and an explosion symbol in the 1's place on the gear dice; which you might be tempted to get if you don't play 40k and already have a metric fuckton of d6's of every shade of color conceivable lying around.
