Machine Mutant (Dragon Ball Supplement)
Neo Machine Mutants[edit]
“ | I knew you couldn't die that easily, my baby, your power is too deep in your circuits! And now you can show everyone what you're truly capable of! | ” |
—Dr.Myuu, the Mad Scientist |
Physical Description[edit]
Neo Machine Mutants are typically created from or around organic beings. They often share features, even when they're created universes apart. These features include pale white skin and hair, yellow and red eyebrows, and single color sclera. They deviate in some areas, such as Neo Tuffles from Universe 6 having an Iris. While their bodies can lean towards mechanical or robotic, there's always an obvious distinction between them and any human.

History[edit]
In Universe 7, the first Neo Machine Mutant was created when Dr.Myuu experimented on his own body to enhance its capabilities. He would then go on to create other organic machines such as Rilldo and Baby. In Universe 8, they were created by the Tuffles. When they had realized how powerful their creations were they attempted to destroy them. The Tuffles failed, and were wiped out.
Society[edit]
Upon creation, most Neo Machine Mutants deviate from their creators, but rarely do they form their own societies. Machine Mutants which have memories on creation typically follow the society of their life before their creation.
Neo Machine Mutant Names[edit]
Neo Machine Mutants are almost always named by their creators, but some may take it upon themselves to make up their own names.
Example: Baby, Kamin, Oren
