Joke Trinkets by Pseudonomenclature

The Jester is still pretty ticked off about being nerfed time and time again throughout the game's development, and has taken it to be some kind of cruel ironic joke. Well, now they have countered with a few Jests of their own, this time at the expense of that all-too-dreaded game balance! This is all incredibly stupid.

This mod adds 11 new very silly and dubiously balanced trinkets to the game! They can be obtained with a 10% chance as loot from CURIOS (if interacted with by a Jester) or from DEFEATING ENEMIES (if you have a Jester in your party).

The Apostate by TheHolyChicken, Anti', and anonymous_koala

"The narrow-minded fools refuse to accept that the Flame is but half the story..."

Denounced by the Church for "straying from the Light", these former Vestals now seek out those texts declared forbidden and apocryphal in their search for the Truth. Many question their morality, but none doubt their tenacity…

The Apostate acts as a formidable group leader who empowers allies as their wounds mount. Despite renouncing the healing practices of the Vestal, she still has the uncanny ability to keep others from succumbing to death, albeit through very different techniques. When provoked, she is capable of unleashing power that devastates any who stand in her way.

[h3]Here are this weeks mods:[/h3]

The Windcaller by Power

The Windcaller is a Buff/Debuff focused Support Hero, built around Pushing and Pulling both friend and foe alike. With strong gusts of wind she can disrupt enemy positioning, weakening them in the process and leaving them vulnerable. Should your opponents do the same, she can simply Slingshot your heroes to the frontline, or Whisk them away To Safety in the backline. If your team can handle it, she can also grant a huge buff to Dodge, Speed, and Crit chance, at the cost of Shuffling your entire party in a Wild Whirlwind.

She works well in stationary teams with fixed positioning, able to easily reposition heroes back in their proper locations should they be shuffled or moved. But she also works wonders in teams built around dancing and moving around, taking advantage of strong buffs and offering a unique party-wide shuffle to buff up your heroes. Whether it's keeping a Leper firmly planted in the frontline with Storming Slingshot, or shuffling your Grave Robber around to spam Lunge, she's got plenty to offer to any team while avoiding overstepping onto the roles of vanilla characters.

The Alchemist by Shay , Alexrkseth, Kenthril, Loki Laufey, and Rothag

The Alchemist is a group project mod that adds a brand new hero to Darkest Dungeon. This hero is completely custom, with all new sprites, skills, sounds, and animations, as well as a complete set of unique trinkets and color palettes.

The Alchemist specializes in draining the life from her opponents to channel into her allies, equally capable of healing or inflicting damage and debuffs. As she deals damage, so does her healing output grow stronger, making her a flexible combatant. Her unique summon abilities, the Homunculus and the Lab Rat, are capable of providing additional support via either guarding her allies or ravaging her enemies.

"The Alchemist, despite her unsettling nature and abominable appendage, finds herself often saving the lives of her comrades. Her research and many experiments have rewarded her with great restorative abilities that can be further empowered through offensive action. In addition, she is accompanied by her lab-grown assistants that fiercely protect her, and whoever she calls an ally."

We hope you all can remain Stalwart and Vigorous during this time and can find some solace through these mods!

[h3]Here are this weeks mods:[/h3]

The Rightful Heiress by kaxen

Disgusted by the line of suitors claiming to be an improvement to her station in life, the Heiress returned to the cursed family estate with a fire for battle despite her own inexperience. Fortified by wine, she seeks to wade into the nightmare despite the hopelessness of the undertaking.

Heiress is a more offensive version of The Rightful Heir, boasting decent damage and mark proficiency, with few support abilities, while still having a signature ability of heir to collect and store more heirlooms while in a dungeon. Heirloom bonuses increase with the amount of heiresses in the party, and does not conflict with heir's ability, if you run both of them in same party.

The Clobber by anonymous_koala and Sasiji

Clobber is the Weald's guardian, who after years of watching his home be corrupted by the Hag's fungus, brigands, bloodsuckers and pretty much every enemy faction in the game at this point, decided he had enough and is ready to CRUSH the evildoers. Other things included in this mod are 12 new trinkets, a new district, a custom town event, and a new mechanic: chaining together rapid punches until Clobber is exhausted, through his "Punchout" skill!
