Hey everyone! Thanks for the feedback, and here's some extra information/questions:

1) Yes, reticulated is a real word, and I chose it specifically because during the game's loading screen you will often see it say "Reticulatng [random object]". The irony, of course, is that Celnar is not in fact reticulated. My sense of humor is stupid like that.

2) The mod is intended to be quite a bit more difficult than your average modded character at the start, since typically they seem to be exceedingly overpowered. I wanted the mod to still feel like a more balanced characer that actually had to struggle a bit at first, just like vanilla characters. However, he gets extremely powerful if you set up properly, wear armor at all times to offset his low HP, and build your army effectively from the start (slurtle slime is your friend!)

3) I am struggling with the idea of making the Lancet a starting item at the beginning of the game instead of requiring a hound's tooth in order to make the ramp-up time a little less harsh. This is less noticable in multiplayer games, when others can work on the usual gathering and crafting while you focus on building your forces and staying alive, but alone you suffer greatly at first. Thoughts on him starting with a Lancet?

4) There are additions coming based on feedback: I will be adding two new minion types, one of which is a winter-type minion (that does not cost slurtle slime) to offset the loss of frogs in the winter season. This frost minion will be a ranged combatant who launches ice balls at the target and tries to stay out of melee range, and will be most easily created in the winter.

The second new minion will be a giant, defensive toad that emits a light aura around himself at night, but will be exceedingly expensive to make (and requires cave components) and mediocre in combat.

After that, I plan on creating custom dialogue for Celnar, to fit his sarcastic personality, as well as tuning and adding some other new features as we go. Please leave feedback if you like the mod, and what you think I can add or change to make it better! I'd love to hear from you.
