The Deathbringer

Description
NOW OVERHAULED! Now that I have a smidge of design/coding experience, I thought I'd revisit Deathbringer and bring them up to my modern standards.

The Deathbringer is a custom character with 76 cards featuring new simple mechanics.

Lore
After wandering to the Spire in search of his next target, The Deathbringer, a notorious assassin, was ambushed by powerful protectors of the Spire. The resulting battle left The Deathbringer on the verge of death. Neow was able to bring him back, however; it seems they may have a mutual goal...

Features
  • 76 cards to find!
  • 10 relics!
  • 3 potions!

Keywords
  • Shadow - Shadow cards have a unique cardback and energy orb texture. Whenever you play a Shadow card, another random Shadow card in your hand has its actions triggered at half effectiveness, then is discarded.
  • Shadowplay - A card is Shadowplayed if its actions are triggered by Shadow. Some cards have extra effects when Shadowplayed.
  • Umbra - Umbra cards will always be prioritized first for Shadowplay.
  • Penumbra - Penumbra cards will always be prioritized last for Shadowplay.
  • Virulence - When applying Poison to an enemy, apply additional Poison equal to your Virulence.

Notes
  • Nearly all of the code for this mod was written by ChatGPT's GPT-4 model, and all of the art was done by DALL-E 3 and/or Midjourney.

Special Thanks
  • The Slay the Spire modding community for the feedback and assistance when needed! I would've been very stumped without you guys.
  • CturiX, for publishing a sound effect repository which I used for this mod

You can find the code for this mod on GitHub.[github.com]

This character is very susceptible to attrition.
Lack of defensive options makes reaching the Heart quite tricky most of the time.
Yeah the character is a glass cannon.

Extremely cool, with fantastic art

Hey キャンディーアップル! Thank you for the comments. First of all, I just checked to make sure and Umbra does indeed have a tooltip in-game. Are there any specific cards that don't have a proper tooltip for Umbra?

As for balance, yeah this character is really unbalanced. I think the Shadow mechanic is just inherently overpowered. I thought about making it so you lose 2 Max HP upon picking up a Shadow card but that just seems too complex. Would be happy to take suggestions though.

After playing a bunch of runs with this character, I find it quite unbalanced.
It has strong offensive potential but lacking defense. Beating the heart relies too much on relics.

There's no tooltip for Umbra.

Great card art!

This character is very strong, too strong maybe.

The mod concept is good though. I liked it enough to actually resubscribe every few updates with the hopes of CTD being fixed

@Tom Excellent!! I'm glad to hear that. I'm a bit disappointed that such a simple mistake slipped by me in the first place, but at the same time it's understandable because I am/was very new at this whole modding thing.

The most recent update did fix the CTD issue I had when running this mod with others
