"You answered the letter... Now like me, you are a part of this place."

After 2 years of development, Koala's Creature Collection is finally out! It contains 17 new monsters(among them a challenging new miniboss!), new trinkets, new diseases, new quirks, and more! KCC should add a notable amount of variety to any savefile! These enemies all spawn in their own mashes, meaning they do not appear alongside other modded monsters in the same fight. This version is for the base game and should be compatible with all other mods.

Still compatible with the build 24839 (GOG)!

Mod Features

• Custom Animations and Art!
• Custom sounds!
• 17 new monsters roaming the Warrens, Cove, Ruins and Weald! Some appearing on Veteran and above difficulty quests to add even more to the progression of the game.
• The Pelagic Plague - A fascinating new disease much like the Crimson Curse, except rather than killing you, it transforms your heroes into Pelagics! Currently all of the official classes have act-outs exclusive to them, but modded characters will soon receive the same treatment!
• A variety of new trinkets to assist you against these new threats, or to reward you for dispatching them!
• New quirks and diseases related to the new additions!
• A few custom town events!
• Journal pages! Discover more about the Creature Collectors and their encounters with the mod's enemies...

FAQ
----------------------------------------------------
"Is this in my language?"
Currently English, Korean (partially), Chinese, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German and Russian (partially, full translation in works) are supported. We would happily accept any translations, however! And no matter your language, you shouldn't see any blue strings, just english text if there's no localization available.

"Will you patch this for DLC monsters?"
Yup! There are new Color of Madness and Crimson Court monsters in the work! Currently the CoM monsters are being worked on! Also there's already a patch that adds standard KCC enemies in the Endless Harvest!

"Can you make it work with x mod?"
It's possible! Given that it'd require an additional patch there aren't any mods I plan on making shared mashes with yet.

"Is it compatible with Level 2 and 4 quests?"
Yup!

"How do I cure the Pelagic Plague / Pelagic Embrace?"
Siren drops a few "Hair O' The Sea Dog"s when killed, at any level. The Corrupted Bosun and his higher level versions may also drop those rarely. These are estate items that upon use remove either of the Pelagic diseases.

Furthermore, the Crimson Curse overrides the Pelagic diseases. After beating Veteran Siren, Pelagic Plague may be cured in the sanitarium, and the same for Pelagic Embrace after beating Champion Siren.

"What do I do with Gorgon's Gaze?"
Gorgon's Gaze is a skill that makes you have to choose the hero it targets. When you choose the hero, it stuns them and gives them a large
SPD buff so they go first the next round.

"Unveil crashed my game! I can't load the savefile again!"

Also special thanks for guidances throughout the 2 years of development from Clair De Lune, verywhale, Shay, Muscarine, TiltedHat, Ishi Samira & Mocha, ElementFive, Jol Balrok, EbonyBetty and many of MLD's users for helping the mod come out in its best form and for helping me not go mad while making it. You're all great.

Modding is something I do for free but it does have a price. Aside from modding I also generally hope to make a living pursuing my creative skills. It'd mean a lot to me if you tipped me as much as you wish if you've enjoyed the mod enough! CLICK ON THE IMAGE TO DONATE!
