What's the difference between contamination and mutation?
The difference in appearance is significant, and even more so in terms of personal consciousness. Contaminated beings are uncontrollable, mad, or simply dominated by the source of contamination. The resulting changes are malignant; they may become stronger, but that strength has no future.
Mutations are different. Benign mutations can bring out stronger potential and a brighter future. For example, green dragons are the result of benign mutations from the mixing of different dragon bloodlines.
