Gen-Wyld: Beyond Natural
On March 14, 2018, a little-known company named Gen-Wyld announced FDA approval for a groundbreaking procedure to enhance a patient’s primary and secondary sexual characteristics using gene therapy. The company was an overnight success.
Shortly thereafter, they introduced a suite of gene-altering body modification procedures that allowed patients to make dramatic aesthetic changes to their bodies by gene-splicing “non-human” anatomy. Those daring (and wealthy) enough can now add cuttlefish pigmentation to their skin, sport a pair of fox ears, and even add a functional tail. While rare, these so-called “modders” draw plenty of hate from conservative communities.
Thanks to their revolutionary procedures, Gen-Wyld is now a household name. Norman Carlson, Gen-Wyld’s chief evangelist, recently announced the company is in the trial phase for a groundbreaking treatment for diabetes.
Yet despite their success, a shroud of secrecy surrounds Gen-Wyld. Their no-patent policy obscures the secrets of their procedures from the public eye. Financial experts claim that Gen-Wyld is run less like a traditional business and more like an NGO with some specific, unknown objective.
Some claim that they will not stop until humanity has been reduced to monstrous slaves and that Gen-Wyld’s board of directors will install themselves as inhuman overlords of the new world order.
However, until the true secrets behind Gen-Wyld are discovered, the genetic biotech firm will continue to grow, develop, and progress its grand designs.

Beware The Mushroom Heads
Imagine a horde of small demon mushroom men, each standing about two feet tall. Their caps are a vibrant mix of deep purples, sickly greens, and ominous blacks, resembling both mushrooms and sinister hats. Their bodies are squat and bulbous, covered in a textured, spore-like skin that shimmers in the dim light.
Each creature has wide, glowing eyes that flicker like candle flames, conveying both mischief and malice. Instead of mouths, they sport jagged, gaping maws filled with tiny, needle-like teeth, ready to snap at anything that comes too close.
Their limbs are spindly and disproportionate, with long fingers that end in sharp, claw-like nails, perfect for digging into the ground or snatching at prey. As they move, they emit a faint, earthy smell mixed with a hint of decay, and small clouds of spores waft around them, creating an almost dreamlike haze.
In unison, they scuttle forward, their tiny feet barely making a sound, creating a sense of creeping dread. They communicate through high-pitched cackles and chattering noises, sharing their wicked intentions as they swarm, ready to spread chaos wherever they roam
In shadows deep, where whispers creep,
Small demon mushrooms dance and leap.
With caps of gloom and eyes aglow,
They skitter forth in a wicked flow.
Their spore-filled laughter fills the air,
A mischievous sound, a chilling snare.
In crooked lines, they scuttle near,
With jagged grins, they spread their fear.
A horde of mischief, sly and spry,
In moonlit nights, they prowl and pry.
Beware the woods where they convene,
For in their dance, dark dreams are seen.

Bound servant
Worse things than Genies can be hidden in lamps.
The artifact holds at least one demon bound to obey the commands and will of the wielder and advance their interests. When used a demon wearing a human form crawl's its way out of the object, and leaps out, looking for enemies.
The demon in this iteration looks like a beautiful human with dark eyes, black hair, and dark nail polish. When not attempting to hide it, they trail little bits of shadowy smoke, and bend shadows and light around them oddly. They have thin leathery wings that peel out from their back when they take flight. When firing at range, claws from their hand break off becoming needle like knives in the air.
The demon can speak, reporting on anything it sees, and apply a level of intelligence to understanding the world around it. It will die defending anyone it is ordered to defend.
The summoner can cause the servant to return to its bound artifact at any time.
This artifact is made by summoning a demon, making a deal with it, and binding it to the object in a long ritual.

From The Earth, It Rises.
Locally Grown
Bill places his corn on the cob in the ground, and from that cob the beast emerges. The corn shakes rapidly, as though it is going to hatch, before it starts to grow wildly. The cob expands to immense size, cracking down the middle to reveal a mouth full of razor sharp teeth. The husk stretches and reshapes itself, forming a shambling mound of legs and wings. Roots rise from the ground and tangle amongst the husk, contributing to the beast's body and limbs. The head is definitively formed by the cob, while the body is a constantly shifting and difficult to discern pile of roots and husk. Entirely, the beast is around the size of a horse, it's colours no different from the corn it was grown from. The beast is capable of launching its cob head at targets 50 feet away from it, the head quickly regrows afterwards (though, any damages done to the head remain even after the head regrows). When the beast is destroyed, it rots into the ground, its body reduced to an inedible black mold.
Bill discovered this gift the morning after his stay at The Vermillion Manor. While harvesting his freshly grown corn, he attempted to hold more than what he could carry, and accidentally dropped a singular ear of corn. He thought nothing of it, until the corn began to jitter on the dirt unnaturally. He backed away in fear, and watched as the once innocuous corn sprouted into a true monster. A monster that listened to his commands. A monster that belonged to him.

Create Lesser Vampire
The Vampire is able to turn one of their victims into a lesser vampire, a pale shadow of a full creature of the night but useful nonetheless. Having drained and killed their target, the Vampire performs a brief ritualistic bloodletting, wherein they spill their own blood into the target's mouth, forcing them to drink, and bonding them together as child and sire.
Shortly afterwards, the fledgling vampire will rise from death, hungry for blood and eager to serve.

The raised creature must consume flesh every day or it will die again.
