Essence of theVariant (Outlast)

By taking this essence, you become a Variant, which is a mutation caused by the exposure to the Murkoff Corporation's experimental technology and deadly virus.

• As a Variant, you gain incredible strength, speed, and agility, and your body undergoes physical mutations such as elongated limbs, immense strength, and heightened senses. With this enhancement, your physical attributes and mutations will be twice as powerful as a regular Variant.

• You have increased resistance to damage and can heal quickly, allowing you to survive injuries that would be lethal to regular humans. Your healing factor and durability will be increased by a factor of two as well.

• Your mutated biology also makes you immune to some toxins and pathogens, granting you twice the immunity of a regular Variant.

• You can see in low-light environments, and your exceptional hearing makes it easy for you to locate and track down your prey with even greater accuracy than usual. Your senses will be enhanced twofold.

• You experience occasional psychotic breaks where you are overcome with rage and become incredibly violent. With this enhancement, your psychotic tendencies will be amplified, making you even more dangerous in such states.

• You can briefly camouflage yourself, making you almost invisible to the naked eye. With this enhancement, your camouflaging ability can last twice as long, giving you greater control over your environment.

• You possess a preternatural, almost supernatural sense of direction, making it hard to get lost even in completely unfamiliar places, and with this enhancement, your sense of direction will be even stronger and more precise, allowing you to navigate difficult terrain much more easily.

• Your mutations will draw the attention of others, and you will become the target of both scientists who want to study you and individuals who wish to eliminate you. With this enhancement, your deadly reputation will precede you, causing even greater fear and intimidation in others.

• You have the option of being placed in any setting, but your primary mission as a Variant, to survive and eliminate your enemies, will be twice as challenging and intense.
