##### Bond's turn
*Recall knowledge* on [[Flesh Warp]]. [[The Gibbering Mouther]] is an example of a Flesh Warp. There are countries that experiment on changing the form of one thing to another using magical or alchemical means. They can be good, neutral, or evil (depending on the Flesh Warp themselves) but they spawn extra eyes and limbs that instantly mark them as strange. One of them has three arms, another has a mouth on its neck. One of them is fighting one of the ghouls, and the ghoul seems to be losing. There's no way to reverse the process because they're a mixture of different living things.
The purpose of creating Flesh Warps is mixed, depending on what was grafted onto them. Could add extra stealth, etc.
