Mutarion is a substance thatmakes it's first appearance in Monster Hunter EX.

Description
Mutarion  is a highly radioactive substance of unknown origins. Though at first glance it seems to be only a radioactive substance, it is also organic and has displayed signs of sentience as well.

It is also capable of self-replication, making its ability to spread incredibly efficient. Most of the time, Mutarion is Blue in color, but has been seen in af form called Red Mutarion, which has even more mutagenic and radiation levels.

It exists in many forms. It is most commonly seen as a network of blue veins and crystal-like sacs. A more concentrated form, called Liquid Mutarion, takes on the traits of a dense gel.

It also demonstrates a trace amount of sentience. Some creatures made entirely of Mutarion are known. Some Creatures that are not killed by Mutarion are mutated by it, in a process called Mutarion Corruption.

Mutarion releases unique energy in the form of Mutarion radiation. Exposure to any amount of Mutarion radiation can be deadly. Most bioforms in direct contact with Mutarion, be it ore or liquid, die within seconds. Even living within an area with high Mutarion concentration can be fatal over time.

However, bioforms with prolonged Mutarion exposure that do not die are horribly mutated. Exposure to Mutarion radiation destroys brain cells and cognitive thought in sentient beings, yet it also sees a gain of muscle mass and other beneficial abilities. Mutarion exposure, while destroying the mind, makes beings hunger for more Mutarion. In turn, corrupted beings also have a natural instinct to protect Mutarion and its source.

The Hunter's guild has made upgrades for hunter's armor that shields them from Mutarion corruption, to mitigate its effects.

Because of the intense radiation it produces and its mutagenic properties, It is a deadly toxic substance. The Guild theorizes that Mutarion, if left unchecked, could destroy entire planet's ecosystems, and slowly kill the said planet. The Planet would then become "Pure Mutarion".

Other than this, not much information is known about it.
