I don't even need to read his class description, he's perfect.

Phoenix Wright's grimdark cousin

I really like the character design of this class. It really matches the deviant mood of the game and a judge character is right at home in a Victorian setting, which is a detail many outlandish classes miss and look out of place.

With that said, I think he needs a little bit thicker linework and blocked in shadows to fit in 100% into the visual language.

*Why Not*

@Zoi I'll have to take a look at that, but I think it should work since I have seen other mods successfully accomplish it.

@vitez_vaddiszno Ah. I may have misread that tooltip then, I think.

@nickpresley I am happy that you like it, but please keep in mind that "Hanging Judge" does NOT PREVENT ambush. It increases ambush chances by 20%. It should say so in the game too, although given how many players think it's an ambush prevention skill, I am starting to think there is a bug with the tooltip.

The +20% ambush chance is a reference to how his ongoing cruelty eventually invites a Native ambush at the gang's riverside base.

I kinda figured the camp skill that prevents ambush would sound like "Any enemies that exist without my knowledge, exist without my consent."

At any rate,there is room on the stage for one beast and one alone. All others are destined for a night that is eternal and without name. One by one they will step down into the darkness before the footlamps. Bears that dance, bears that don't, and the odd shambler too. The Hamlet welcomes The Judge.

@mmmihkel - Hanging Judge does not prevent nighttime ambush, it actually increases nighttime ambush chance by 20%.

the 'prevent nighttime ambush' in camp skill dont seem to work.

@Jenek - resubscribing resolved the issue. Give it a shot.

Hello! Please see image. There is a bug in the loot table of this mod. https://i.imgur.com/XpuK11h.png

Clever, mechanically fun, and well-designed. Another beauty to add to the Hamlet.

@jonathanjoeyjoey No problem, I understand you just fine. I am planning to make more class mods in the future, so keep an eye out for that. But for now I am focused on finishing a mod another game, because that's been long overdue. I'll eventually get back to my planned DD mods.

@vitez_vaddiszno i repect your choice,i still wait for BR 1.0 for a long time but they dissapear in a whole year. At this time i've play DD for 7 year ( most crack but I bought a full game this Aug). It;s for a long time to see again a good class mod also with comic. I don't know how to decribe it all bc my english still not good.

@jonathanjoeyjoey That is not planned for now. While I have great respect for the dedication and ambition of the Black Reliquary team, I cannot on principle agree with their decision to include sexual fanservice in their mod (namely, enemy designs).

It's not because I'm a prude or a fundamentalist - quite the opposite in fact. It's because I value immersion, flavor and the dark atmosphere of DD above all, and I think having cheap fanservice like big boobed enemies goes against all those things. But if you like to play with BR, I'm happy that you're happy, we all have different tastes after all.

Will your mod class will have any br (black reliquary) patch in future?

@Fiki Ripfiend That is great to hear. I am happy you enjoy playing with the Judge!

Very original character who works from backline, is flavourful and has really useful camping skills. Great addition to any roster since the rank 4 is difficult to occupy. Life sentence is a great wordplay, since the poor sob who gets stunned for 3 rounds will really die stunned, humor is needed in the Hamlet :D

I see you are guilty of wiping my whole team

@Clockworky the comic is a reference to the ending scene of Blood Meridian a Novel in which Judge Holden is the main antagonist. Judge holden is the character that this mod is based on. dont read the book if you cant handle considerable depravity.

Darkest Desire support when?

Он никогда не психозит... Он говорит, что никогда не умрёт.. Он повышает мораль и на свету, и в тени, и все его любят. Он никогда не психозит. Этот судья поднимает и поднимает мораль.. И говорит, что никогда не умрёт.

If this is a Blood Meridian reference, then count me in.

can someone explain the lore comic?

When he said, "ill be the judge of that" and proceeded to judge all over the place I cried so hard ten out of ten

Whatever in knowledge creation without my exists consent

the discord admin mod

@Lavahit yes, it's a bug. I'll get around to fixing it (and ask around, because it requires a certain method of coding I haven't done before) in the near future, hopefully.

He reminds me of a certain Judge... tallow-skin, very tall, no hair...

@ArasakaScum It was considered during development that his combat skills directly mirror the book, but I've decided against it in favor of more symbolic abilities. Please read the LORE FAQ section for details behind this design choice.

give him grapeshot loaded howitzer and I'll call this mod good

oh... its THAT judge...

Subpoena has a bug that after used as a free action, unless i select a new skill, i can keep using it again and again for as many times as I please. While it is fun to do, well it is a bug (or is it a feature?).

I heard you. I had the pleasure of reading Lovecraft, not only The Call of Cthulhu and The Dunwich Horror, but also many of his stories. I'll read Blood Meridian and translate it while I study The Judge

@pavlik.yanin Unfortunately, I'll only incorporate a translation if the translator has read the book in both English and their original language. I myself spent months reading the book and selecting quotes. It is a hard read, like Lovecraft, and you have to know the context of phrases before you include them as barks.

Bruva alfabusa...

"I am sorry my friend. But the law already burns in this land.."

Unfortunately, no, I only heard and read an excerpt with a boy who was scalped by the judge. If reading Blood Meridian is really necessary - I understand that you left references to this book there - then the translation may take a while

@pavlik.yanin Have you read "Blood Meridian" in both English and Russian?

I can translate this mod on russian

Skeleton Key provision should properly appear now!

I sentence you to TOUCH GRASS!

Looks absolutely fantastic, I'll try that one very shortly. Congrats on the release!

The misaligned shadow on Sentence Extended is fixed!

The thick kobold is gone, the thick judge is here!

This looks so damn cool!

sick character! gotta learn how to proporly use him though

Pog! So glad to see him released.
