Mutations
Mutations are alterations to a waja's body, such as wings, horns, gills, and much more. There are 18 different mutations on Wajas divided into two different categories - Potion mutations and Custom mutations.
Custom Mutations
Custom mutations are mutations which are only available when you create a custom Waja with a Token. The only other way to achieve custom mutations is through a Mutation Pear, which adds a random mutation to your Waja. This is risky, however, as it can add ANY of the 9 custom mutations.
Custom mutations are as follows:
- Bat Wings
- Bird Wings
- Butterfly Wings
- Leg Feathers
- Mane
- Prehistoric Horns
- Ram Horns
- Saber Fangs
- Unihorn

Potion Mutations
Potion mutations are mutations which can be applied at any time to any waja you own using the appropriate potion created by the Mad Scientist. Once added, the mutation is permanent, cannot be removed, and is inherited the same way that Custom Mutations are.
Potion mutations are as follows:
- Alien Eyes (added with a Xenu Potion)
- Antennae (added with a Arista Potion)
- Forked Tongue (added with a Ptthhh Potion)
- Gills (added with a Slime Potion)
- Neck Bolts (added with a Classic Potion)
- Raptor Claws (added with a Prehistoric Potion)
- Rhino Horns (added with a Livingston Potion)
- Shoulder Eyes (added with a Nightmare Potion)
- Tail Spikes (added with a Thago Potion)

How Mutations are Inherited
Mutations are inherited according to this chart (does not factor in MU):
SHOW x SHOW: 100% of pups SHOW the mutation
SHOW x CARRY: 50% of pups SHOW, 50% CARRY
SHOW x NO: 100% of pups CARRY
CARRY x CARRY: 50% CARRY, 25% SHOW, 25% NO
CARRY x NO: 50% CARRY, 50% NO
Mutation Gene, or MU percentage also affects how mutations are inherited. The exact formula isn't well understood, though higher MU results in higher chances of a mutation in the parent showing or carrying. It is also widely believed that you must raise the MU of both parents (even if the other parent doesn't show or carry any mutations) in order to get the best chance of getting pups to show the mutation.
