About this mod
Your shopkeeper?! What is she doing here?!
Cleo has the ability to temporarily upgrade and downgrade cards in your hand. Once you play a card she has improved or impaired, it loses it's upgrade/downgrade! You can either take this at face value and use the upgraded cards, or you can use them as fuel for Cleo's more powerful tools.

- Improve: When you play a card with Improve A or B, the rightmost non-upgraded, non-trash card in your hand will be temporarily upgraded to the respective letter. For all intents and purposes, this counts as an upgraded card like any other! When a card with Improved is played (or when combat ends) it loses it's upgrade, so make sure you play it at the right time.
- Impair: This is just like Improve, but instead of upgrading the card it downgrades it. It will always target the rightmost upgraded card in your hand, including cards with Improved! If a card with Improved becomes the target of Impair, they cancel each other out and the card loses both traits. When a card with Impaired is played (or when combat ends) it loses it's downgrade, so make sure you play it at the right time (or not at all).
Now why would you play a card with Impair on it? Cards that require you to impair other cards usually pose a great benefit to you if you successfully impair enough cards, plus, with how many upgraded cards you are getting through Improve you won't be running out anytime soon.
Cleo also has some more powerful tools to use that can absolutely decimate her foes (just like she does to you when you choose to fight her). These cards will also center around the amount of upgraded cards you have, so keeping a high stock of them through Repair Yards or cards with Improve is a solid strategy.
Now I bet you're wondering what happens to the Repair Yards when Cleo is in your crew, but don't worry! The Repair Yards have special dialogue for when Cleo is on your side, but I'll let you discover that.
