The Biomutation Lance is a four-use artifact added in the Anomaly DLC that can be equipped by pawns in the Utility slot and manually activated to forcibly transform a target into a Fleshbeast

Acquisition

Biomutation lances can be crafted at a bioferrite shaper once the mutation weaponry research project has been completed. Note that this research requires dark study to unlock. Each requires Shard 1 Shard, Bioferrite 50 Bioferrite, Twisted meat 20 Twisted meat, 40,000 ticks (11.11 mins) of work modified by the general labor speed of the crafter, and a crafting skill of 6.

Alternatively, they can be received as a quest reward.

Summary

The Biomutation Lance can be used to transform a targeted pawn into a random Fleshbeast. The chances of which fleshbeast it will turn into depends on the size of the pawn; smaller creatures will normally become a Fingerspike or Trispike, human pawns typically become a Toughspike, while larger animals like Elephants and Thrumbos have a chance of becoming a Bulbfreak. The Fleshbeast is hostile to all human pawns.

The pawn's original body is completely destroyed, leaving no opportunity for Death refusal or other means of reviving, and any equipment will be dropped to the ground untainted.
