Starwars defence system:
1-2. Force sword
3-4. Las pistol
5. Chaos Armour with respirator

Spoiler: Note on mutation 1

Brilliant firdst entry and splendid idea ! I 've thougt about giving a go at something in that vein but I'll start with something easy...

2. Atrocious face paints

Strange shapes of various colours appear on the creature's face. The graphism and colours used are an insult to nature and no mortal man can stand the look of them and keep his sanity.
The creature gains +1 fear point.

Spoiler: atrocious face paints examples

3. Mutated neck

As the mutating powers of chaos enter the chaos follower, his(her) neck evolves into some disturbing and revolting way :

Roll a D6 :

1-4 : The neck of the champion evloves into a rat tail. the tail is the size of an actual rat's ad is fully functionnal though attached at the back of the champion's head.
The champion sees both Intelligence and cool reduced by -1.

5-6 : The neck of the champion evloves into some form of ray-finned fish (like some sort of mullet) from gills to tail, living at the back of his head. Although it has no head it is living and moving.
The champion sees both Intellignece and cool reduced by -1 and he gains 1 fear point in return.

 

[Fimm McCool]

Awesome idea! When it's done we need the sculpts to match...


4.
Sonic Syphon

The winds of chaos flow through the character, dragging with them the powerful strains of chaos music. In effect the character gains its own rocking theme tune which plays as the character enters the battlefield, engages on combat or does anything else deemed worthy of soundtrack accompaniment. The character gains +1 Cl with an extra +1 Cl and +2 Ld on any turn in which it does something, well, cool.

5. Rickrolled

The creature is always singing or humming "Never Gonna Give You Up" while jiggling. He suffers W-1, BS-1, WP+1. When targeted by a missile weapon the shooter has a -1 malus to hit. Each other creature in base contact with him suffers permanent WP-1 and has 33% chance of catching the mutation (first contact only).

 

[Captain Crooks]

6. Cosb-mic Sweater.

The champion is gifted with an amazingly chunky knitted sweater depicting a vivid scene of people running marathons, deer roaming snowy forests, wild colourful geometric patterns or, just, all of X-mas. The character gains -1 Cl due to the sweater's 'pull silly faces' curse, and is immune to cold-based attacks.

 

[Citadel Collector]

7. Air weapon

Whatever primary weapon your chaos model is armed with is designated an Air Weapon. Any chaos champion gifted with an Air Weapon must roll a D6 on the following table during each round of combat:

1-2: your opponent is not taken in by your prancing about waving your arms around. Subtract D6 from your Cool and your opponent gains +1 to hit
3-4: your opponent is convinced by your antics and combat is resolved as if you actually had that weapon
5-6: your opponent is so taken in by your performance that they are thrown off guard. You gain D6 initiative and +1 to hit

 

[treps]

8. Motörhead

The creature has a Snaggletooth head (cross breed gorilla/wolf/dog combination with boar horns and Helmet). He gains fear and Cl+2.

Spoiler: Snaggletooth picture

 

[Captain Crooks]

Additionally, any weapon you choose will be represented by an oriental variation and you will gain +1 to hit on the charge due to your bodacious warcry of 'sheepabunga!'

 

[treps]

10. Mogwai

Water or iced based attacks directed at the creature make 1D6 other creatures pop from his back (no need to wound, roll a D6 for each hit). The creatures have the same profile than the Gizmoed creature. Pray for the battle to not last after midnight...

 

[Zhu Bajie]

11. Goth

All colour drains from the creatures skin and all its clothes and armour become black, its hair becomes large. This creature is now a Trad. Goth. If it was an Elf, it is now a Dark Elf, if it was a Dwarf it is now a Chaos Dwarf. +1 Cl, -1 Wp, M -2. May either howl like a Banshee (cause Frenzy within 10" to all friendly units) OR may Cure up to 1 wound within 10" once per round. Immune to Fear caused by the Undead, undead, undead.

 

[Asslessman]

12. Goony

The character gets a treasure map tattooed on the chest. The map leads to One eyed Willy's chest which supposedly contains fortunes. The quest for the treasure somehow renders the character stupid, foolish and a bit childish.
The character's appearance turns into that of a cheerful and stupid child
Character looses -2 to intelligence and gains +1 to WP

On a roll of 6 on a D6, the character gains one random chaos weapon.

 

[Asslessman]

13. Loosefoot

The character is doomed with an invincible will to dance in the most awkward situations.

Character loses -1 to Ld and models intending to attack the champion suffer a -1 to hit.

 

[treps]

14. Aerobic Maniac

The creature is an Aerobic Maniac, he wears tight spandex clothes with improbable patterns and colors and moves in rhythm with a music he is the only one to hear. He gains M+1, T+1, Int-2.

Spoiler: Beware, it may harm the eyes

 

[Asslessman]

15. Iron lady

The skin of the champion turns into solid iron while his gender changes to female (if it wasn't already the case). The mental sanity of the mutant is irremediably altered and the champion wil refuse any rule whatsoever, praying for deregulation on every field.

Models loses -2 to intelligence and gains +2 to will power.
Models gains a chaos amrour if not already equiped with one and weapons lose all special rules or abilities against the champion.

 

[Asslessman]

16. Iron Maiden

The champion's body turns into a set of iron bars which can inflate into a form of spiked cage. His will to get his prey is such that he's going to get him, no matter how far...
Once per battle, the champion can get into contact with any character on the tabletop.

 

[Asslessman]

17. Banon Aroma

The champion is plagued with the most unpleasant aroma. the aroma is so vile it even makes every move he makes and every words he says unpleasant and annoying. Characters afflicted by such gift sport incredible hairdos and often behave povocatively.
To hit a champion with this mutation, a cool test must be passed beforehand.

 

[Citadel Collector]

18. Swap Shop

The character may swap any one of his personal characteristics for any other of his choosing. Unfortunately the chance of the character gaining this gift is quite remote (a roll of a 1 on a D1000; only one roll allowed per battle).

 

[Citadel Collector]

19. Blue badge of chaos

The means of acquiring this arcane gift are shrouded in mystery, but should the champion gain one he will instantly acquire god-like status with +10 to all his characteristics.

 

[tobius.maxilla]

20. Power of Grayskull.

Champion is gifted a sword (counts as magical). Once per battle, Champion may hold a loft his magic sword and say " I have the power!!" Champion becomes S10 until the end of the turn.
