Mental Mutation Drawback: Acute Dyslexia
Today's mutation is a drawback, one which does affect a percentage of people in the world. As with all the drawbacks I have either updated or created for the game, the reader needs to remember... IT'S JUST A GAME! Use it for your OSR game or don't!
The epidermal layer of the mutant exudes a glowing substance. The light produced is strong enough to give opponents a better chance of striking the mutant in dim or poor light, but on the other hand have a more difficult time striking the mutant during the day, as the same substance makes the mutant appear fuzzy or slightly out of focus. In low-light conditions opponents gain two plus the power score modifier to hit, but in light suffer the same as a penalty instead of a bonus. This produces the same level of torch-light.
