SURGE (it's an acronym, and don't have the book with me to look the
words up... last 2 words are Genetic Expression) represents sudden
mutations that pop up in the year 2061, the 50th anniversary of the
Awakening AND the year Haley's Comet returns. Not full goblinization,
but causes enough completely random mutations across all races to cause
a lot of new riots and hostilities all over the world, for a few months
at least. Mutations like fur, tails, scales, gills ... pretty much
anything you can think of that doesn't completely change your race, but
makes you different. Like goblinization, it only happens to a small
percentage of the population (around 5% I figure) It's all covered in
the book Year of the Comet.
