Lore


The Mender is a travelling apothecary, someone who travels from village to village healing the sick and wounded. In the superstitious countryside, a woman brewing concoctions was seen with suspicion, resulting in the Mender being labelled a witch. Her reputation was tarnished and she could find no more safety in the countryside, lest she give up the vocation she worked so dearly for. But whether by merciful blessing or cruel twist of fate, the Mender discovered the Hamlet. The land infected by eldritch forces and corruption was much more tolerant of suspicious newcomers. Her vague reputation as a witch meant little compared to the eldritch-touched heroes that were allowed to roam. Out of options, but with renewed hope and slight desire for gold and glory, she became a soldier of the war against evil and corruption, and became an apothecary of the Hamlet.

Conclusion

If you’re reading this, thank you for taking a look at my mod! It’s my first mod made for Darkest Dungeon, and generally the first piece of content I’ve ever really made. I hope you enjoy the mod if you choose to subscribe, and feel free to give any criticisms. I’m open to change things.
This was a cool project to work on, and I’m planning on making at least another hero or two in the future. My next plan is going to be developing a much more interesting hero. This one was fairly tame, mostly for learning the ropes, but the next one will be much more combat-oriented and will definitely start toying with mechanics not seen in the vanilla game. No promises yet though! It’s questionable! Very exciting when it comes to Darkest Dungeon, considering things are a bit inflexible. Fun fact, this hero was actually going to have a mechanic where her trinkets would make her healing moves apply different buffs based (such as the bandage move applying a small bleed/blight resist buff). Unfortunately it’s not possible, but hey, you never know with Darkest Dungeon 2…
Anyway, that’s enough rambling. Thank you to the Moonlit Dungeon and Darkest Dungeon discord servers for helping me figure this all out, and thanks to my friends and family for supporting me doing this whole project. 
And thank you too, reader, for taking the time to read this. I hope you have a wonderful day, and take care.
