The Playable Hero Antiquarian Mod adds the Antiquarian from the original darkest dungeon as a, of course, playable hero
Head canon lore behind this mod: After the events of the first game the Antiquarian leaves the heroes to seek new prospects and riches. The Antiquarian, recently allied and even leading with the pillagers, now trying to reform from her past of pillaging and taking advantage of those weaker seeks out our heroes to aid them in their conquest to stop the re-emerging horrors of the original game. Haunted by her past she aids the heroes but not while fighting her regrets and holding onto old habits.
The Antiquarian mod includes:
Fully customized skill icons
Fully customized hero portrait
Fully customized hero barks for every single possible place where it is applicable
Trinkets put into respective loot pools (Including a chance to receive from the antiquarian mini boss)
Fully customized hero party names
Customized buffs, effects, and conditions to expand on darkest dungeon 2's skill potential
4 fully customized paths (sadly separate downloads at the moment due to mod restrictions)
4 Paths Include:
Wanderer: Base path focused on a little bit of everything including healing, buffing, and supporting heroes while being able to dish out her own unique attacks
Scholar: Path based on de-buffing and applying combo to the enemy team through a variety of attacks while still being able to provide excellent AOE support to your team
Selfless: Path that excels at buffing your team with powerful healing and token applications while also being able to reposition your team at the cost of strong damage output and variety
Esurient: Path that is a force to be reckoned with. This path specializes in damage using and abusing your teammates in order to fulfill her conditions via. combo tokens at the cost of losing her team support and specializing self sustaining support.
What to expect in future updates:
Fully customized hero inn item
Fully customized trinket icons
Re-balancing of paths based on community feedback
Fixing Antiquarian mini-boss having the same moves as the path you downloaded (most likely first update and soon)
And whatever else comes up!

This mod would not have been possible without my beautiful play testers playing and finding bugs, providing feedback, and being supportive:
break_man: Main in-game play tester, provided excellent feedback and suggestions
jimmithius: Also provided excellent feedback/suggestions while also being the creator of all of Antiquarians Custom Barks
serenica.: Came in later than the other play testers but still provided lots of bug fixes and some great suggestions and feedback
.kiibo: Not an in-game play tester but was a very helpful modder that helped with code when I hit a wall.
Last but not least the wonderful community in the Darkest Dungeon 2 discord server from new users to mods in the community all providing feedback, suggestions, and modding help!
Known Bugs/Issues (mostly due to only having access to unofficial mod support)
Can select Antiquarian's confession at the act 5 final boss but bugs out the boss making him spam one move and Antiquarian having no one to kill
No image can be put in for resistance battles and any other interactable team choice and is instead just a large white box :(
At inns Antiquarian stands up and acts in her idle combat stance
When relationships show up, she is in her idle combat stance
When meltdowns/resolute occurs there is no image for her
Please provide any more bugs to me via. discord!
