Scale-like platelets form all over your epidermis creating a resilient shield against damage. Raise Physical and Energy DR by 3 on all areas of the body, however this extra protection doesn't come without a tradeoff. When generating AP subtract the first two points from your result as if you had two points of Fatigue. You are also not able to hide this mutation easily, suffering a +1 Difficulty modifier in all future Charisma checks as well.
Treatment
Intensive Care- Removing this condition is not easy and requires an experienced physician and sterile facilities in which to perform the operation. The scales must be debrided from the flesh while flushing the wound with a concoction of Radaway and a Stimpack, and each area of the body must receive its own attention. Have your doctor roll an Intelligence + Medicine check at Difficulty 3 for each area, (head, torso, r arm, l arm, r leg, l leg), and expend one Diluted Stimpack and one Diluted dose of Radaway per attempt. To completely cure the mutation the entire body must be dealt with in this fashion within twenty-four hours. After that it is highly recommended that the treatment concludes with an additional full Stimpack to avoid permanent scarring or risk of infection.
