As of the introduction of Mutants to the Story Line, I think it is relevant to explain that not all mutants are created equally. There is a class system for telling what kind of mutant you're dealing with.

C-class: Powers are undeveloped and sometimes not in the control of the mutant. Weak for the most part but more powerful than a human

B-class: Powers are more developed and controllable. B-class are considered threats to the general population

A-class: Very well developed powers, user is in total control of abilities. A-classes, if against humans, are extremely dangerous, but on the other side of the coin, they are also helpful if for humans. Tar, Alex and Rachel are all A-classes.

S-class: The most developed and dangerous of mutants. S-classes are usually so powerful that they can loose control of their abilities for sort periods, but most of them are so well adapt that this rarely happens. S-classes are only defeated by other S-class mutants or an amalgamation of A-classes working together. Humans have no hope against an S-class in most cases.

Also I should explain the differences between Natural and Synthetic Mutants. Naturals are born with powers prior or without being human who's DNA has been contaminated. Naturals are usually born from human parents. Think of this as a person who can read minds or what not. Most naturals fall into the C/B-class areas, but some have been known to be born with abilities far above most chemically changed mutants.

In the case of GELFs, most fall into the B-class of mutation. Pynn would be considered an S-class for the fact that he has more abilities than other GELFs since he is the carrier. The Second Generation GELFs, the ones being assembled by Synthia Zeint, are more like A-class mutants, since they are able to hide their abilities in a more human appearance.

Since GELFs don't particularly follow Mutant standards, however, putting them in Classes would be a mistake. While most do appear to fall in B-class, they're abilities, lent to them from the animal or plant DNA that has been infused into them, can bolster or lower their class requirements. A GELF fused with a docile animal might be considered a C-class because they are less dangerous to humans, while one fused with a predator would be an A-class. After all, who would you be more afraid of, the Lamb or the Lion?

The Carrier GELF is only as dangerous as his instincts tell him to be. Being able to morph his body to the needs of his situation, he can either be ferocious or docile. He is almost always aware of his surroundings and will take up a "Fight or Flight" stance if necessary. This makes him volatile and dangerous to those who are not weary. While he has attacked and infected only a few people, the chances of infection are still high. All it takes is a bite or a bleeding scratch to be a catalyst for infection. One must always be on guard when approaching him.

If anything else needs to be added it shall. *Cricket-Syamota
