We are all familiar with the Metamorphica, I hope? If not, check it out at once!

In a secret facility maintained by your usual secretive government agency/mysterious conspiracy/mad scientists, years of experimenting have produced the ultimate super serum. A new era is beginning, humanity ready to ascend to heights of science never seen before! The serum allows nearly unlimited change of the human form and mental capabilities - allowing the creation of super-soldiers, super-scientists, super-humans in general. There's only one problem.

Nobody can actually control the serum.

A number of unfortunate scum rounded up on the streets (or worse, volunteers), have been dragged screaming into the depths of the facility and injected with this very first version of the super serum. As everything goes to hell at once, they find that they are free to leave whatever tank of suspicious chemicals or operating table they were strapped into, and that they have undergone some... interesting changes. Unfortunately, these changes show no sign of stopping, and the facility is in full alert...

I expect everyone to die horrendously in the first ten turns, so don't be afraid to sign up for the waitlist. The more the merrier! I'm not going to coddle my players like some other weakling GMs! Bring on the lit kegs of explosives, steaming pits of acid filled with mutant, acid-resistant, flying piranhas equipped with flamethrowers and axes, venomous, mechanical, missile-launching morris dancers armed with liquid nitrogen harpoon guns riding giant, rabid killer bees, backed by enormous death rays - and I won't forget to turn the lightning generator on.*

*Ah, what a wonderful reference.

So how are you today?

Anton Gorodetsky, Male
(tempted to say Other, but that'd sail over the head of everyone not reading russian fantasy)
(e: also, 400 is by far not the worst of the mutations. At the very least you can kill people with it.)

Why, what does the Russian word for "other" sound like?

It's not the word itself, it's because Anton Gorodetksy is an "Other". From the novel series "Night Watch" by Sergei Lukyanenko. "Anton Gorodetksy, Other" would be a common way for him to introduce himself.

In very, very specific circumstances, mostly aimed at people you don't want to kill.

We seem to have at least six now.
