Royal Aegis - New Class - Torchless Guardian

Now updated for CoM!


The Royal Aegis is a guardian renowned for his strength. For many years, he defended his king's tomb in the darkness. It warped his faith, and imbued him with unique strengths when light disappears. He fights with a bell mace. Once, it acted as a chime for holy miracles. Now, it tolls for death.

Foremost, he defends his allies by stepping between them and harm, then cleaving enemies away from them. In the darkness, his strength grows immensely.

This is Velstadt, the Royal Aegis from Dark Souls 2. I tried to keep things directly specific to his lore and place in the world, and how I think he'd play in Darkest Dungeon. We don't have many characters who cleave the front row with CC, so I hoped to fill that niche while giving players a good excuse to do torchless runs. They're really fun, and I'm not sure that enough players have done it. I hope this mod helps encourage them.



I like feedback. Please keep it to the forums, though-- comments for my mod are intended to be short messages, or urgent ones about bugs.
