# Info
Occasionally, a creature’s rapid mutations become too much for its body to withstand. In a horrific shower of gore, such wretches explode into a quivering mass of cancerous tumors, babbling mouths, shifting eyes, and grasping limbs that twist, expand, and retract in grotesque and bizarre ways.
# Mechanical Features
**Fully Contaminated** This creature is immune to [[contamination]], and has advantage on saving throws against contaminated spells.
**Haze Adaptation** This creature may benefit from a long rest finished within [[the Haze]]. It can see twice as far through [[the Haze]] mists and [[The Haze|Deep Haze]] fog.
**Haze Dependence** This creature gains one level of [[Exhaustion]] for every twenty four hours it spends outside [[the Haze]]. These [[Exhaustion]] levels cannot be removed while the creature is outside [[the Haze]].
**Delerium Healing** As an action, a monster can touch a [[delerium]] shard to regain 10 (3d6) hit points. Once a monster has used a [[delerium]] shard in this way, the shard can’t be used in this manner again for twenty four hours.
