The Ghost of Christmas Present

ΠΕΡΙΓΡΑΦΗ
(non-beta mod. Requires ModTheSpire, BaseMod, StSlib)

In Charles Dickens' novel A Christmas Carol, Scrooge is visited by three spirits, the second of which is The Ghost of Christmas Present - a jolly giant reminiscent of Father Christmas.

This is a character with lots of HP and can also gain Temporary HP. Several interactions revolve around this like cards that care how much HP you have, cards that reduce dexterity as a drawback, cards that let you retaliate against attacks, and cards that start in your discard pile.

This is published somewhat early, not all art assets are currently available, though all cards have art and the character should be completely playable and hopefully bug-free. I'm looking for feedback on relative card balance.

I was happy to find an XMAS mod and am really enjoying it. Thanks!

Neat character with some interesting mechanics. The use of temporary hp INSTEAD of block, with lots of effects that trigger when you lose it, gives him a different feel compared to most characters.

The gripes:
* The "gremlins" card should have a tooltip explaining that it's referring to powers with gremlin in their name, or just say it on the card. Otherwise it's confusing if you see that card first.
* Maybe reword Unwrap so it has less text if it isn't upgraded?
* Obesity stacks its upside but not its downside.
* The card that returns your graveyard to your draw doesn't shuffle.
* The combination of Dynamo+Ice Cream is bonkers OP, esp with the quadratic X-attack card. On their own they both feel pretty creative, and aren't too unbalanced (by rare standards). Maybe Dynamo could explicitly drain that much energy at the end of your turn? And the Ice Cream should maybe add another void when you shuffle, since the downside is trivial in longer fights.

Interesting character. Card art is fine (could work on making some more thematic, though, especially the basic Attack card.) Temp HP build seems to be a little too powerful. Haven't tried others yet. The Regift concept is especially good.

I kind of like the art on the cards, just because it fits the theme of the kind of art that would actually be sent to Santa. Proper icons for buffs from powers would be nice, though :)

The card (don't remember the name) that puts your discard pile back into your draw pile: always lays those cards back on top. This means that for that combat, you can never really play any other cards, since the first ones you drew will be the only ones you'll ever draw. Might be a bug.

This is uhh... most certainly something or other. Some advancements on the art would be nice

he seems to have the appropriate amount of fingers, so you nailed that.
