Bloodhunter: Order of the Mutant
Original Source: D&D Beyond
The process of undertaking the Hunter’s Bane ritual is a painful, scarring, and sometimes fatal experience. Those who survive are irrevocably changed—and not always for the better. Over generations of experimentation, a splinter order of blood hunters honed the way in which hemocraft alters the body, using corrupted alchemy and toxic elixirs to alter their blood even further. Over time, they have modified their capabilities in battle, becoming something beyond what they once were. Calling themselves the Order of the Mutant, these blood hunters now specialize in assessing the strengths and weaknesses of their foes, altering their biology to be best prepared for any conflict.

As on D&D Beyond, but with the following 2nd paragraph:
As a bonus action, you consume a mutagen from the list of formulae you know, whose effects and side effects last until you finish a short or long rest unless otherwise specified. While one or more mutagens are affecting you, you can use an action to focus and flush all mutagens from your system, ending their effects and side effects.

Brand of Aphorism

When you use your Brand of Castigation, the target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be Stunned until the end of its next turn. In addition, your attacks against Poisoned creatures are made with Advantage, and if you hit a Stunned creature, your attacks become critical hits.
Mutagens
The mutagens that are part of your hemocraft are presented in alphabetical order. You can learn a mutagen at the same time you meet its prerequisites.
