I figured this might be a decent suggestion, especially since all of the prerequisites are in the game already so I figure that slapping them all together for a mutant race would make sense!
The idea is a selectable mutant race of synthetic humans, or plant people! Composed of flowery viney arms and legs by default, selectable flower colours and even a small array of various green tints to their regular torso and head skin! And of course all of their organs would be the synthetic counterpart too! As a fun side perk, allow the character to select a type of flower during character set up, and exchange a small amount of health to be able to "pick" one of these flowers from themselves during the round!
After looking through all of the synthetic organs that are available I see a few things, mainly lungs that offer a slight advantage, for example being able to filter out carbon dioxide and produce oxygen in the room they breathe in, so I'll elaborate on a few potential balance or mutant race perks down below here.
They should basically have an inbuilt weakness to fire, being literal plants it makes sense. The current character I play as a synth person has the trait that makes it so they're horribly vulnerable to fire, and I believe this should come as standard for the mutant race!
Potentially for RP servers mainly, the thirst motive should have more detrimental consequences if left unchecked! Perhaps a harsher stamina penalty?
A fun few other thing is, give potential food buffs to the character if they consume compost, or plant nutrients!
That's a super basic idea for a new mutant race anyways, please feel free to drop any feedback!
