J'avo Mutations

After the C-Virus turns an infected human into a J'avo, the host will continue to mutate, with the mutation usually occurring in a specific section of the body. When a host's body is damaged, the regenerative properties of the C-Virus will attempt to repair the damage. The repairs replace the normal human tissue with chitinous, insect-like appendages. In some cases, the repairs take on a utilitarian purpose, replacing arms with scythe- or shield-like appendages. Other reports say that some J'avo sprouted wings and have gained the ability to fly. Certain mutations, like the aforementioned wings, have been observed on numerous occasions; the exact number of types of mutations that actually exist is unknown at this time.
