We're back! The past week has been dedicated primarily to adding new content behind the scenes for Mischief, as well as preparing for localization into other languages.
Mischief has been coming along great so far, and we're constantly iterating over her design and playtesting to make sure she's as fun and unique as Bruno and Greybeard. Mischief starts off with an interesting perk called 'Riff-raff' which reads "-1 Base attack. When you attack an enemy that's alone in its row, gain [Stealth]". Stealth is a new keyword that reads 'Your next attack has [Blitz] and does +2 damage (+3 if you have a weapon". The result is that Mischief cares a lot about the positioning of enemies. She's weak on her own with a base attack of just 1 damage, but she can easily pick off enemies that are alone in their row. She also has abilities like Knockout which allow you to shuffle an enemy back into the deck - useful when there are 2 enemies in a row and you need to isolate an enemy so that you can gain Stealth.
We'll continue to iterate on Mischief over the next several weeks as we prepare to release her. The current plan is that once she feels like she's in a good place, we'll put her on the Beta branch and gather feedback from players before moving her to the main branch. I'm super excited to introduce her to everyone!
