Only the Corporeal version is known. This Songs is so new that calling it 'known' is a gross exaggeration: only one person can perform it (a rare non-Hellsworn Sorcerer / mad scientist). He somehow happened across the Song, and is now using it to evolve somewhat more intelligent beetles, blithely unaware that both Jordi and Vapula will do anything, up to and including personally coming to blows, in order to possess the Song. He will no doubt soon have plenty of excitement in his life.

This Song will actually change the DNA of a living, corporeal subject - for a little while. Sometimes, a little while is just long enough.

The performer may either attempt to specify the change, or not. An unspecified change will cause the target to temporarily exhibit a changed genetic structure that is better suited for the immediate environment (whim of the GM, but the change should be more pronounced in dangerous environments). By making a Will Roll, the performer may specify a specific alteration: use the check digit of the Will Roll to determine how close the change is to the performer's desire. A 1 would indicate a mild success, while a 6 would be precisely what the performer envisioned. Use the check digit of the Song Roll to determine how obvious the change is; a 1 is grotesquely obvious, and a 6 is completely hidden.

Duration is usually for 1 hour, and may be sustained for half cost. However, an Intervention will cause the change to become permanent: determining whether it is favorable or unfavorable depends on the target's point of view, not that of the performer.

Note that this Song only changes the DNA, not the body: for example, someone drowning will not suddenly sprout gills. This would make the Song effectively useless, except for an interesting side effect: if the target engages in sexual reproduction while affected by this Song, any offspring produced will permanently have the new genetic structure. This Song is thus perfect for improving species (which is why Jordi will want it), or turning them into monsters (guaranteed to spark Vapula's interest). Also, a successful use of the Celestial Song of Form on the target will allow the new adaptations to surface, for the duration of the Song of Evolution.

Bonus: Animals, Technology

Essence Requirement: 5 Essence per Force of the target. Half cost to maintain. A swarm of insects is considered to have 1 Force.

Degree of Disturbance: the CD times the target's Forces.
