+(level based) Strength
(level based) chance to daze your opponent on a successful melee attack for 2-3 rounds
Double-muscled is a physical mutation that increases the player's Strength. Additionally, every melee attack a creature with Double-muscled makes that hits and successfully penetrates has a mutation level based chance to daze their target for 2-3 rounds. This effect functions similarly to dazing caused by a critical hit from a cudgel, and will stun creatures that are already dazed. A single attack can daze more than once if there are multiple sources of daze, such as a cudgel's critical hit or Bludgeon. This can stun a target with a single blow.

Advantages & Disadvantages
 |
This section is opinion-based. Your mileage may vary. |
Advantages
- Additional strength causes the player to do more damage in melee via additional penetrations and increases carrying capacity
- Gaining strength from a mutation rather than by increasing it through the Attribute Points granted at level-ups allows those points to go to other Attributes, or allows you to get extremely high strength
- Synergizes well with weapons/mutations that have uncapped strength bonuses, such as
Horns - Synergizes well with mutations that grant additional limbs that can be used in combat, such as
Multiple Arms - The daze effect caused by this mutation can often prevent enemies from reacting to your attacks or fighting back. Dazing an already dazed creature will stun the target instead
Disadvantages
- Moderate cost at character creation
- Grants a relatively low strength bonus at mutation level 1 and takes many levels for this bonus to significantly increase
