With the judicious application of many mutagens, Oleg has transformed his physiology to operate beyond human limits. This adaptive power grants him increased speed, strength, and heightened perception, along with a remarkable flexibility in form. His body can now generate specialized implements or adapt structurally to suit varied environments. Subtle but visible changes become apparent, becoming more apparent the more he exerts himself physically: his muscles and bones seem to realign with purpose and his pupils dilate or constrict with unnatural precision. In darker settings, a faintly luminous glow can be seen shining from the inside at all times, growing brighter and brighter as the exertion rises - during moments of high tension and oxygen consumption, his insides glow intensely, giving him the look of a glowing anatomical model of himself. The transformation, while useful, comes with a marked photosensitivity resulting from the mutagens used in the making of the new body.
You gain the following benefits at all times.

Doc puts his hands on you and begins to mutter to himself in french. The effect is instant and horrible. You begin to remember all of the sins of your past, all the ways that you've wronged those who loved you. All of the terrible, evil things you've done on these contracts in order to survive. Doc seems to be in the grips of similar memories, tears running down his chin and dripping onto his hands that are pressed tightly against you.
