Edgar & Cie - Balancing
Thanks to some users, I decided to do a major upgrade to Edgar Mod.
In the beginning of this new work, I wanted to use "shapeshifting" to transform Edgar into the Crow. But I'm playing with some friends, so I preferred to create a pack of characters.

Each of Edgar's Chimera have some special abilities, or funny handicaps.

Edgar
He's the reader, as Wickerbottom, have some bonus with science machine. His sanity falls slowly, mostly when the raven is around, thereby he can create a flask of lush.

Ligeia
My first idea was to allow her to change apparence with death, but difficult to write the code. So I settled for a vampriric witch character : Issue with heat, gain health or sanity in killing...
Gain some power with lightning and death.

Morgue
More than a slow but strong character, this one can shave himself.
Killing other creature could hurt his mind, but can regain by planting trees.

Pluto
The black catkin has some issue with water, he's weak but can see in darkness, and run fast.
I'm not sure about his fishing skill.

The raven
The crow is the haunt of Edgar, but to the others too, sanity falls in his vicinity.
However, this bird can lay eggs and other stuff by eating special dishes

Please try to play with friends and report bugs or behavior,
could be helpful to a better balance .
Suggestions are welcome.

Ligeia doesnt seem to gain hp (and i don't think any sanity) when killing things, she just has a constant hp regen of like 1hp per 20 seconds or something. Not sure if this is on purpose or not but would be nice to see it go up when she's killing stuff, something like wigfrid... other than that I absolutely love this character, she seemed to me like she might be a bit too good and a bit op but oh my gosh when summer hit you die instantly if you're not prepared. I was testing her out on a server and I died just at the end of the season before, the heat was too much and the hp goes from 250 to 0 in 3 seconds. Love her so much, she seems pretty balanced and I can't wait to play her more!!!

Really thanks you, I'll check that in the middle of the week.
Someone had crashed with starting new game with Pluto, I've tried, but no crash for me, could you please test with friend.
Thanks a lot !

Yeah the server I was on crashed when someone was Pluto, and happened on another server too, it's a shame :(

Sorry for the double comment but I feel like I should note that Ligeia seems to have issues with any extreme temperature not just heat or cold, and even in the month of autumn with no rain, when it gets near winter if you dont make sure that she's kept warm then she might freeze with no warning and die in a few seconds. I know it's normal for other characters to freeze in late autumn but I don't think they tend to lose any hp for it, and since you dont get the frozen screen warning when you're 5 degrees above complete freezing temperature in autumn, there's really no way to tell when it'll happen unless you use the mod that lets you see what your temperature is. I think I might have made this sound really confusing but I want to let you know, I didn't get a chance to play her during summer so I'm not sure about her overheating penalty, but i presume it's probably a bit more worse than the freezing where her hp loss is significantly higher than Wilson. I'm not sure if you would know how to fix this or not but I just want to let you know :).

Ok, really thanks, it will be helpful to improve these characters.

Thanks for waiting a little more.
