Bird Wings is one of the most popular mutations.

Mutations are alterations to a waja's body, such as wings, horns, gills, and much more. There are 19 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 (excluding Tri Wings) to your Waja. This is risky, however, as it can add ANY of the 9 custom mutations.

Custom mutations are as follows:

Potion Mutations

Example of the Shoulder Eyes mutation on theAfrican.

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:

DNA Mutations

DNA Mutations can be added to a waja either through custom creation, taking up a token slot, or by applying the appropriate DNA to a waja. Mutations of this type are:


How Mutations are Inherited

Strange Pears are used to increase a Waja's MU.

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.


Mutation Pears

The Mutation Pear item gives a Waja a random non-potion, non-DNA mutation when fed. All mutations obtained via mutation pear are the same color as the base color of the Waja the pear was fed to.

Multiple mutation pears can be used on a single waja, so some players choose to use mutation pears on a Waja until it has all the mutations. Once a waja has all the mutations that a mutation pear can give, mutation pears will no longer work on that waja. It should be noted that a mutation pear cannot turn a carried mutation into a visible mutation; it will only add mutations that the waja doesn't currently show or carry.

As stated above, potion mutations are not among the mutations that a mutation pear can give, nor are Tri Wings.


Monsters

Example of a monster Waja that is also a Paintball.

"Monster" is a term used to describe a waja with a large number of mutations, usually due to liberal use of mutation pears and/or potions. Monsters can have any kind or amount of markings, but are frequently also pearballs (wajas with large numbers of markings added by markings pears) to make them look more chaotic and monster-like.






Unreleased Mutations

Mutations that are known about but which are not yet available to add to wajas are:
