Default Re: Bio-tech related Quirks and Perks

Skin and hair texture perks and quirks make sense in this setting. If you're using DNA from animals and plants you might bring over unexpected or undesired traits.

If, as an example, you wanted certain glandular traits from beavers, you might also get the slick water-repellent properties of beaver fur in the resulting parahuman's hair. Depending on which traits showed up, this could be quirk or perk.

Body hair that, while being no thicker or more common than normal human body hair, could grow as long as scalp hair ( providing inconvenient extra beards in odd places) could also resault from animal DNA. As could the problem of abnormality short scalp hair.
