shatter gene

Can someone explain the shatter gene to me. It looks like a normal to me and I want to learn about this gene. Still learning all the morphs.

I'll admit I haven't heard of this gene until you just brought it up, but it appears very distinguishable from a normal to me. I've been out of the game a little, but from what I see, it comes with some distortion in the pattern. Almost like someone took a Q-tip to the normal spots and smeared it around.

Huh. Looks like i have a rack full them.:P

Shatters all seem to show some form of paradox...even in base form.
