** Conversely, there's no way for Mush to fake double eating (or what players call a "food test"). Mush can ''only'' eat once per cycle, and gain nothing from doing so; it's purely for the purpose of mimicry. Due to this, it is against the rules for any player to force another player to double eat to prove their humanity, and doing so will generally result in a swift ban.

section. In addition to this, Mush has different "seasons" in which two characters are swapped out - these characters are always Finola/Chao and Derek/Andie. The reason for this is not explained in the game proper, but on the wiki, you can read that this is due to each season taking place in an alternate timeline - one where Finola was successfully kidnapped by Kuan-Ti & Chao and put into cryostasis on the ship, but Derek was lost, and one where Finola anticipates their arrival and leaves a series of traps that lead to the death of Chao and force Derek to retreat. In this timeline, Derek's survival is what draws Andie to the ship, as they are an admirer of Derek's.

* AwesomeButImpractical:
** The blasters, while seeming to be the best weapons available, only have 3 shots per blaster, 2-3 damage per shot, and 50% chance to hit. There is a small chance of an instant headshot, but the likelihood of this happening before the blaster runs out of shots is extremely low.
** The microwave, which allows players to cook food for no AP cost, also has a significant chance to sever the connection between the ship and Sol, meaning that no rebel bases can be contacted and no research into Xyloph can be conducted. This makes the microwave a particularly dangerous item, and using it at any point is almost a guarantee to get a player killed on suspicion of being Mush.
** The grenade, which damages everyone in the room it is used in and has a range of 0-10 damage, potentially killing multiple people at once - but it also damages the player who uses it, and if NERON Core Peace is activated, it will immediately out the player who uses it as Mush, as only Mush can use it while this setting is active.
** The MAD Kube. You will receive a 5+ bonus to Glory if you solve it... but it costs 1 AP to try, and you only have a 10% chance of success ''every attempt''. It is nothing more than an AP sink to even attempt to use it.
** The different drugs from the Narcotics Distiller can be this if the player doesn't have the Doctor, Biologist, Medic, or Nurse skill, since only players with those skills can see what each drug does, and the effects are completely random - for example, one pill might give +2 to AP, but -2 to Morale, which can be dangerous if a player is already low on Morale.
* BoringButPractical:
** The knife - there's only one and it has potential to do even less damage than the blaster, but it also has a 60% chance to hit, a wider damage range (1-5), and a similar instant-kill potential to the blaster, all while having no charge requirement to use it.
** The Plastenite armor - it has the potential to absorb one hit point of damage ''per hit''. As the average player will, at best, have 12 AP, and it costs 2 AP per attack, this is a significant boon. Generally held by Chun as she will be the Mush's first target for elimination.
** The Stainproof apron. Just as the name implies, it keeps the wearer from getting dirty while performing almost any activity (as every activity has a varying percentage to make the player dirty). As the majority of the ship's functions require the player to be clean to access them, this is an indispensable item and holding onto it for too long is one of the best ways to either draw suspicion to yourself or to get yourself killed (so that you'll drop it).
** Hydropots - just a flower pot that can be used to plant things in. Also becomes CRUCIAL to have as many filled ones as possible toward the end of the game, as oxygen planets are difficult to come by and different plants will replenish the amount of oxygen lost on cycle change.

The only exception to this is the rare case in which a game begins without any Mush - this can happen if a game does not fill before selection (Day 5, Cycle 2), at which point the characters in cryo are considered "inactive," and the game will randomly choose which players will be Mush. If both characters chosen are still in cryo, they will be completely inert, leaving an entire ship of only humans.
