A warped human with unpredictable mutations and poor survival instincts.
Threat File — Warp-Touched Mutant
TR 3 · Chaos & HereticsSaves: Toughness +3
Unstable Flesh. Roll or pick one mutation per fight: extra limb (one additional Flailing Assault attack), warped hide (+1 Defense), too-long legs (+10 ft. Movement), or leaking gifts (its critical hits deal 1d4 extra warp damage).
Wrong to Look At. The first time each enemy sees the mutant clearly, that enemy makes a Willpower Save DC 11 or takes -1 to its next roll.
Flailing Assault. Melee Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 1d8 + 2 slashing damage. On a critical hit, the mutation does something extra and unpleasant at GM discretion.
Lurch. The mutant moves up to half its Movement in a sudden, wrong-jointed surge. This movement does not provoke Reactive Fire from creatures that have not yet acted this round.
Morale: Poor survival instincts; fights past the point of sense, then flees or convulses at random rather than by doctrine.
Tactics: Run it as noise in the enemy formation: it charges early, blocks lanes, and dies badly, but its mutation should make one moment memorable. Mix several with different mutations so the party can never pre-read the threat.
Loot / Evidence / Hooks: Nothing worth taking except tissue samples; a Magos Biologis or Inquisitorial contact pays for proof of how fast the change is spreading.
Enemy Dossier
GM ReferenceA Warp-Touched Mutant is a human the warp has already started editing: extra joints, wrong eyes, unpredictable gifts. It fights erratically because its own body is an unreliable weapon.
Use this enemy to add unpredictability and body horror to cult fights without the cost of a true monster.
Low durability, erratic melee threat, random mutation effects, corruption unease more than raw damage.

Flailing Assault. Wild melee attack; on a critical hit the mutation does something extra and unpleasant.
Lurch. Sudden erratic movement that does not provoke Reactive Fire from surprised onlookers.
