Unova is part Pixie Norn (breed slot 1) and part Banana Norn (breed slot 0). She's a happy little Norn who blithely ignores everything I say.

Genetics:

Unova has no gene to make her die of old age, but she also has a couple of mutations.

Original gene:
50 Emb B MutDupCut  Creature, Drive Levels Sleepiness, chem=Sleepiness, thresh=0, nom=0, gain=255, features=Analogue

Mutated gene:
50 Emb B MutDupCut  Creature, Drive Levels Sleepiness, chem=Sleepiness, thresh=0, nom=0, gain=255, features=Inverted Analogue

The change in this gene is that it now has the feature 'inverted', which means that rather than increasing the value the locus will be set to, it will decrease it. I think this may very well mean that a high level of the sleepiness chemical will not equate to a high sleepiness drive.

Original gene:
86 Emb B MutDupCut 1*SexDrive-- + 1*SexDrive => 1*Reward + 1*<NONE>; half-life = 8

Mutated gene:
86 Emb B MutDupCut 2*SexDrive-- + 1*SexDrive => 1*Reward + 1*<NONE>; half-life = 8

This gene has mutated so that it takes two sex drive decrease instead of one to get rid of one sex drive. This just means it's more likely for her sex drive to be higher than other Norns' as it takes more sex drive decrease to bring it down.

This one's also a bit confusing because when you open it up in the genetics kit it says it corrected an error. According to Slink's D-DNA Analyzer, the gene is actually mutated to 17*SexDrive-- instead of 2. But in the genetics kit it counts as 2 and that's the value she passed on to her children.
