Spacepillow: swordhand does not count as melee ability

'''Shieldshear''' is an active [[Warrior]] [[ability]].

==In-Game Description==
<q>''(Active) Once every other turn, as a swift action, [[Hero]] shreds '''x''' of a foe's armor with his weapon.''</q>

==Upgrade==
<q>''(Active) As a swift action (no cooldown), [[Hero]] shreds '''x''' of a foe's armor with his weapon.''</q>

Cooldown removed; can be used multiple times per turn.

==Specifics==
* Action: {{iconify|swift action}}
* [[Shred]]: <code>2 + 1/2 [[Potency]]</code>
* Range: weapon's range
* Note: doesn't work with a ranged weapon
* Note: does count as an attack for flanking
* Note: does not count as a melee ability

==Tips==

* Valuable for low-level warriors to counter the heavily armored foes often encountered at high [[difficulty]] levels.

Broadswipes

2022-04-22T23:12:34Z

Spacepillow: swrodhand update

'''Broadswipes''' is a [[Warrior]] [[ability]].

==In-Game Description==

<q>''(Passive) [[Hero]]'s melee attacks deal '''x''' damage to all other foes within range.''</q>

== Upgrade ==

''<q>Broadswipes damage scales twice as much with Bonus Damage and Potency</q>''

==Specifics==

* Damage = <code>2 + 1/2([[Bonus Damage]] + [[Potency]])</code>
** Upgraded damage = <code>2 + ([[Bonus Damage]] + [[Potency]])</code>
* Bonus damage and potency are both rounded down ''before'' being summed
* Damage from Broadswipes counts as an attack for setting up [[flanking]]

==Tips==

* Broadswipes is widely regarded as the strongest ability for high-level warriors. Stack enough [[Bonus Damage]] and [[Potency]] and it can become mass-murdering. [[Bloodrage]] also boosts Broadswipes damage.

* Combine with [[Long Reach]] and/or spears to increase the number of targets within range.

* Most melee attacks trigger Broadswipes, including single-action attacks like [[Sting]] and swift-action attacks like [[Wolf Bite]] (but not [[Backslam]] or [[Shieldshear]]). A warrior with Broadswipes should ideally have the capability to perform at least two Broadswipe-triggering actions each turn.

* [[Frenzy]] triggers Broadswipes three times with one action.

* A mystic can trigger a warrior's Broadswipes using [[Blazing Sword]].

* Applies some weapon effects (e.g. [[poison]] or extra damage to specific enemies) to all targets.

* In certain situations, [[Sting]] and [[Swipes]] can hit and Broadswipe the same target.

Bloodrage

2022-04-22T22:46:42Z

Spacepillow: /* In-Game Description */

'''Bloodrage''' is a [[Warrior]] [[ability]].

==In-Game Description==
<q>''(Passive) Hero's melee and ranged attacks deal more damage based on the percent of health they're missing, up to a max of '''+x''' damage.''</q>
{| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable"
! colspan="1" | Formulas  
|-
| Up to a max of <code>2+floor([[Potency]]/2)+floor(Health/4)</code> damage.
|-
| Damage bonus: <code> ceil[((2+floor(health/4))+(floor([[potency]]/2)))*([[hero#injury_and_healing|injury]]/(health-1)] </code>
|}


== Upgrade ==

''<q>(Active) Once per combat, while wounded, activate to gain +2 Damage and prevent health dropping to zero for one turn.</q>''

==Specifics==
Bloodrage gives a hero extra damage based on the number of hitpoints they are missing. Bloodrage ignores [[Temporary health|Temporary HP]]: Temp HP does not affect a hero's max HP, and losing temp HP does not grant a hero extra damage. This means that hero with 1/10 HP and a hero with 1/10 HP + 10 temporary HP would get the same damage bonus from Bloodrage.
==Tips==

* Keep Bloodrage's interaction with temp HP in mind when strategizing. If a hero takes 4 damage, then gains 4 temp HP, they will gain extra damage from Bloodrage and have some extra survivability from their temp HP. However, if they gain 4 temp HP and then take 4 damage, their temp HP will be exhausted and they will not gain any extra damage from Bloodrage as their HP has not gone down.

* Since temporary health does not reduce Bloodrage's effectiveness, Bloodrage combines well with [[Aid]], [[Invigoration]], and [[Rock Shield]] to maintain an injured warrior's survivability.

* Can also be valuable with the [[Shadow]] transformation since it facilitates regaining lost health via kills.

* The damage boost from Bloodrage applies to a wide variety of attacks, including [[Broadswipes]], interfusion attacks (using [[Thnarrs Accordica]]), and [[Dreadscythe]]'s Broadswipes effect. However, it does not apply to [[Elmsoul/Splinterskin|Splinterskin]] or [[Stormtouched/Static Shock|Static Shock]].

Spacepillow: /* Defense Strength */ removed extra space between paragraphs

== Line of sight ==

Ranged attacks require '''line of sight''', which is blocked by other enemies and by solid walls. For some attacks such as Discus, Cover objects also block line of sight. Crevasses in the map do ''not'' block line of sight.

Attackers can "lean" to see around obstacles in some cases. Specifically:
* The attacker considers five possible '''firing positions''': the center of their current tile and positions offset by 0.7 to the north, south, east and west.
* For each firing position, the game checks five lines to the target (or to each of the target's tiles, if it is large): from the firing position to the center of the tile and to positions offset by 0.49 to the north, south, east, and west. These are the '''target points'''.
* If there is any unobstructed line from a firing position to a target point, the attacker has line of sight on the target.

== Attack Strength ==

Also called "Attack Roll" in some places. For basic attacks, simply pick one of Melee Accuracy or Range Accuracy.

== Defense Strength ==

Also called "Defense Roll" in some places. The target's Block, Dodge, and Cover are added together to give Defense Strength.

=== Block ===

Block is straightforward. Just add Block to the target's Defense Strength. (The only difference between Block and Dodge is flavor.)

=== Dodge ===

Dodge is straightforward. Just add Dodge to the target's Defense Strength. (The only difference between Block and Dodge is flavor.)


=== Cover ===

A defender must be standing adjacent to cover to benefit from it. Diagonal adjacency counts. Solid walls, door frames and such also give Good Cover even though they do not say so.

Partial cover is worth up to +30 Defense Strength, while Good cover is worth up to +60. However, the cover's value is reduced if part of the target's body is exposed. Attackers also automatically "lean" a small amount in whichever direction maximizes the target's exposure.

Specifically, for each firing position and each target point described above for [[#Line_of_sight|line of sight]], the game tests the five lines from the firing position to all target points. For each line that passes through any part of the cover tile, the target gets 20% of the potential cover value. The attacker picks their best firing position. If the target occupies multiple tiles, this calculation is carried out for each tile, and the attacker picks the most exposed (lowest cover) target tile.

For example, this means that a defender can very rarely get full cover value from a single-tile cover object. They would have to be diagonally adjacent to it with an attacker on the far diagonal.

== Resolution ==

Subtract Defense Strength from Attack Strength to get hit strength. If the result is -75 or below, the attack cannot hit. Above that, the hit chance increases by +1% per point of hit strength until it reaches 85% at hit strength +10. Then it increases by +0.5% per point of hit strength until hit chance reaches 100% at hit strength +40.

Technically, interpolate hit chance on this table:

{| class="wikitable"
! Hit Strength !! Hit Chance
|-
| -75 || 0%
|-
| 0 || 75%
|-
| 10 || 85%
|-
| 40 || 100%
|}

=== Misses ===

If the attack fails, the system will randomly determine whether the target Dodged, Blocked, or Took Cover. Cover is the first line of defense—if the hit strength is less than the cover value, the shot hits and does damage to the cover. Otherwise, Dodge or Block is selected, weighted by the target's defense ratings.

== Damage ==

When an attack hits:
# Determine the total attack damage, with [[bonus damage]], [[spell damage]] and [[potency]], and any additions from abilities or special effects.
# If the attack is physical, take the target's [[Armor (Stat)|armor]], or if it's magical take the target's [[Stat#Warding|Warding]].
#* If the defender has [[walling]], add 1 to the effective armor or warding.
#* If the attack has '''piercing''', subtract it from the effective armor or warding, minimum 0.
# Subtract the remaining effective armor or warding from the attack damage to get true damage.
# If the defender has '''[[temporary health]]''', apply the damage against temporary health first. The temporary health points are lost.
# Add the remaining true damage to the hero's '''injury'''.
# If '''injury''' is equal to or greater than [[Stat#Health|Health]], the defender falls. Heroes may get a [[mortal choice]].
# After evaluating the damage for this attack, subtract '''shred''' from the target's armor.

=== Types of Attacks; Physical / Magical ===

*Normal damage from weapons is physical and benefits from [[bonus damage]].
*Damage from interfusions benefit from [[potency]] and [[spell damage]]. Depending on the interfusion this may produce magical or physical damage
*Some transformations result in attacks that benefit from [[potency]] and [[bonus damage]]. Depending on the tranformation this may produce magical (e.g. [[flamesoul]]) or physical damage (e.g. [[elmsoul]]).

=== Armor / Warding ===

'''Armor''' is subtracted from incoming physical damage before inflicting injury. If armor reduces a physical attack's damage to zero, the attack shreds 1 point of armor instead.

'''Warding''' is subtracted from incoming magic damage. Each piece of warding absorbs one damage before breaking, but all warding regenerates at the start of the unit's next turn.

==== Shred ====

Attacks can have '''shred''' effects. Each point of shred removes one point of armor for the remainder of the [[mission]]. Shred is applied after damage for the current attack is calculated; for instance, if a monster with 6 hp and 2 armor gets hit by an attack doing 7 dmg and 1 shred, the monster takes (7 - 2) = 5 hp damage, and survives with 1 hp and 1 armor remaining. Warding cannot be shredded.

==== Pierce ====

An attack with a '''pierce''' value ignores up to that amount of armor or warding. For instance, if a monster with 6 hp and 3 armor gets hit by an attack doing 7 dmg and 1 pierce, the monster takes (7 - (3-1)) = 5 hp damage, and survives with 1 hp and 3 armor remaining.

Attacks from [[grayplane]] ignore armor entirely.

==== Walling ====

When two [[hero]]es are next to each other, both reduce the damage they take by 1. This effect works against both physical and magic damage. It does not stack. Adjacency must be orthogonal; diagonal is not close enough.

The power of friendship! Or, at least, being near an ally.

=== Temporary Health ===

Characters can gain temporary hit points from abilities, buffs from pre-combat events, and other sources. Incoming damage is applied to temporary health first. Temporary health is lost at the end of the combat. A character does not have to be injured before gaining temporary health; they can exceed their base hit point total.

=== Injury ===

Injury is a stat equal to the number of hitpoints a hero is missing. It's used to calculate a hero's HP in combat, and for other things, like the [[Bloodrage]] ability. Injuries heal in the [[Overland]] phase; see [[Hero#Injuries and Healing|Injuries and Healing]] for details.

== Status effects ==

Various debuffs can be inflicted upon opponents.

* See [[:Category:Status effects]]

== Combat Modifiers ==

Various modifiers to stats (good and bad) for a single hero, the entire party, and/or all enemies.

* See [[Combat Modifiers]]

Cover is the first line of defense—if the hit strength is less than the cover value, the shot hits and does damage to the cover. Otherwise, Dodge or Block is selected, weighted by the target's defense ratings.

== Damage ==

When an attack hits:
# Determine the total attack damage, with [[bonus damage]], [[spell damage]] and [[potency]], and any additions from abilities or special effects.
# If the attack is physical, take the target's [[Armor (Stat)|armor]], or if it's magical take the target's [[Stat#Warding|Warding]].
#* If the defender has [[walling]], add 1 to the effective armor or warding.
#* If the attack has '''piercing''', subtract it from the effective armor or warding, minimum 0.
# Subtract the remaining effective armor or warding from the attack damage to get true damage.
# If the defender has '''[[temporary health]]''', apply the damage against temporary health first. The temporary health points are lost.
# Add the remaining true damage to the hero's '''injury'''.
# If '''injury''' is equal to or greater than [[Stat#Health|Health]], the defender falls. Heroes may get a [[mortal choice]].
# After evaluating the damage for this attack, subtract '''shred''' from the target's armor.

=== Types of Attacks; Physical / Magical ===

*Normal damage from weapons is physical and benefits from [[bonus damage]].
*Damage from interfusions benefit from [[potency]] and [[spell damage]]. Depending on the interfusion this may produce magical or physical damage
*Some transformations result in attacks that benefit from [[potency]] and [[bonus damage]]. Depending on the tranformation this may produce magical (e.g. [[flamesoul]]) or physical damage (e.g. [[elmsoul]]).

=== Armor / Warding ===

'''Armor''' is subtracted from incoming physical damage before inflicting injury. If armor reduces a physical attack's damage to zero, the attack shreds 1 point of armor instead.

'''Warding''' is subtracted from incoming magic damage. Each piece of warding absorbs one damage before breaking, but all warding regenerates at the start of the unit's next turn.

==== Shred ====

Attacks can have '''shred''' effects. Each point of shred removes one point of armor for the remainder of the [[mission]]. Shred is applied after damage for the current attack is calculated; for instance, if a monster with 6 hp and 2 armor gets hit by an attack doing 7 dmg and 1 shred, the monster takes (7 - 2) = 5 hp damage, and survives with 1 hp and 1 armor remaining. Warding cannot be shredded.

==== Pierce ====

An attack with a '''pierce''' value ignores up to that amount of armor or warding. For instance, if a monster with 6 hp and 3 armor gets hit by an attack doing 7 dmg and 1 pierce, the monster takes (7 - (3-1)) = 5 hp damage, and survives with 1 hp and 3 armor remaining.

Attacks from [[grayplane]] ignore armor entirely.

==== Walling ====

When two [[hero]]es are next to each other, both reduce the damage they take by 1. This effect works against both physical and magic damage. It does not stack. Adjacency must be orthogonal; diagonal is not close enough.

The power of friendship! Or, at least, being near an ally.

=== Temporary Health ===

Characters can gain temporary hit points from abilities, buffs from pre-combat events, and other sources. Incoming damage is applied to temporary health first. Temporary health is lost at the end of the combat. A character does not have to be injured before gaining temporary health; they can exceed their base hit point total.

=== Injury ===

Injury is a stat equal to the number of hitpoints a hero is missing. It's used to calculate a hero's HP in combat, and for other things, like the [[Bloodrage]] ability. Injuries heal in the [[Overland]] phase; see [[Hero#Injuries and Healing|Injuries and Healing]] for details.

== Status effects ==

Various debuffs can be inflicted upon opponents.

* See [[:Category:Status effects]]

== Combat Modifiers ==

Various modifiers to stats (good and bad) for a single hero, the entire party, and/or all enemies.

Bloodrage

2022-04-22T20:17:05Z

Spacepillow: /* Specifics */ Specifics rewrite, code still needs to be translated.

'''Bloodrage''' is a [[Warrior]] [[ability]].

==In-Game Description==
<q>''(Passive) Hero's melee and ranged attacks deal more damage based on the percent of health they're missing, up to a max of '''+x''' damage.''</q>

== Upgrade ==

''<q>(Active) Once per combat, while wounded, activate to gain +2 Damage and prevent health dropping to zero for one turn.</q>''

==Specifics==



. But if it happens in the other order, if you get 4 temporary hp first and then take 4 damage, you have 0 injury and do +0 damage (and also will need no time to heal up after the battle). -->



==Tips==

* Since temporary health does not reduce Bloodrage's effectiveness, Bloodrage combines well with [[Aid]], [[Invigoration]], and [[Rock Shield]] to maintain an injured warrior's survivability.

* Can also be valuable with the [[Shadow]] transformation since it facilitates regaining lost health via kills.

* The damage boost from Bloodrage applies to a wide variety of attacks, including [[Broadswipes]], interfusion attacks (using [[Thnarrs Accordica]]), and [[Dreadscythe]]'s Broadswipes effect. However, it does not apply to [[Elmsoul/Splinterskin|Splinterskin]] or [[Stormtouched/Static Shock|Static Shock]].

==Specifics==



* +<code>1 + [[Potency]]/3</code> damage per 2 hp [[Hero#Injury and Healing|Injury]]

Note that temporary health gained, such as from [[Aid]], provides extra temporary hp but does not reduce Injury. This means, for instance, that with Bloodrage, if you take 4 damage then get 4 temporary hp, you still have 4 injury and do +2 damage. But if it happens in the other order, if you get 4 temporary hp first and then take 4 damage, you have 0 injury and do +0 damage (and also will need no time to heal up after the battle).

Rogue

2022-04-22T19:32:56Z

Spacepillow: /* Upgrade */ update to swordhand

'''Rogue''' is a [[Passive ability|passive]] [[Hunter]] [[ability]] that allows the Hunter to enter [[grayplane]] after killing an enemy.
[[File:Rogue.png|200px|thumb|right|Duigtia entering [[grayplane]] after killing a [[Roe]]]]

==In-Game Description==
<q>''(Passive) Every time Hero kills an enemy, he/she enters grayplane for free.''</q>

=== Upgrade ===

''<q>Also become [[hidden|hidden]] on stunt.</q>''

==Specifics==
For the Rogue ability to trigger, the killing blow must be dealt directly by the hero. Standard attacks count, ranged or melee, as do damage-dealing abilities like [[Flashcone]] and counter-attacks from [[Archery]], but deaths resulting from indirect effects like [[Quellingmoss]] poison or [[Jumpjaw]] traps do not.

==Tips==
* Rogue allows Hunters to position themselves more aggressively when they can guarantee a kill, as they will be safe from enemy attacks after entering grayplane. It also ensures that the Hunter's next attack will benefit from the [[Armor (Stat)|armor]]-ignoring bonus of being [[hidden]].

* Combines well with [[Thornfang]] to ensure that every attack ignores armor.

* Archers may favor either Rogue or [[Piercing Shots]] to ignore armor.

* [[Interfusion]] attacks made via [[Thnarrs Accordica]] do not benefit from Crippling Strikes.
==Tips==
* Crippling Strikes synergizes well with [[Abilities|abilities]] that let you hit multiple enemies, like [[Through Shot]].
* The +2 damage bonus from Crippling Strikes+ can be utilized by a hero on the same turn if they use [[Heroism]] or stunt with a [[Weapons#Elemental_Weapons|water weapon]].

== Choose an Ability ==

Upon promotion, the player is presented with a randomly-generated list of abilities to choose for their hero. While some abilities are available to all heroes, many are only available to a hero of a particular [[class]]. Additionally, many abilities are an upgraded version, or "+" version, of another ability and thus will only be offered if the hero already has the base ability.

Upon promotion, the player is presented with a randomly-generated list of abilities to choose for their hero. While some abilities are available to all heroes, many are only available to a hero of a particular [[class]]. Additionally, many abilities are an upgraded version, or "+" version, of another ability and thus will only be offered if the hero already has the base ability.

Interfuse

Spacepillow: Undo revision 20724 by Spacepillow (talk)

[[Mystic]]s interfuse with things and can then manipulate those things to perform their magic. The mystic can perform some action and/or gain some benefit from the interfusion. The effects of interfusion depend on the object that the mystic is linked with, and so [[battle]]s play out differently in different environments. Interfusion is the primary method human mystics use to perform magic.

It's sort of a temporary soul-combining, maybe?

== Specifics ==

The mystic can '''Interfuse''' with or '''Withdraw''' from objects within range 6, as a {{iconify|swift action}}. If they move more than 8.0 tiles away from an interfused object, interfusion is withdrawn at the beginning of next turn.

When the mystic is moving, scenery that will be in range to Interfuse is highlighted in blue.

For most interfusions, the attack is a {{iconify|single action, ends turn}}, the hero's [[range accuracy]] is used to determine whether the attack hits, and [[potency]] adds to damage inflicted. Most damage is physical damage, mitigated by [[Armor (stat)|armor]]. The mystic's equipped weapon grants [[stunt]] effects. Exceptions as noted in the effect descriptions.

Range for interfusion effects is measured from the interfused object. With objects larger than one tile, it is measured from the most advantageous part of the object.

Damage for most interfusion effects is treated as originating from the interfused object, for flanking purposes. Interfusion attacks can set up flanking but do not themselves receive benefit from flanking.

Interfusion does not break [[grayplane]].

=== Interfusion slot ===

By default a mystic is limited to '''two''' active interfusions, though it is possible for abilities to increase this number. If the mystic's active infusion count is full, they must [[withdraw]] from one before they can interfuse with a new object.

=== Interfused scenery ===

The mystic gains a limited viewing area around any interfused object, 8 for fire and 7 for all others.

== Basic Interfusions ==

All basic interfusion actions are {{iconify|single action, ends turn}}.

=== Blaze ===

====Fireleash====
Line attack for [[fire]] damage, does half damage to enemies along the path and full damage where the fire stops. Additional burn for 2 magic damage, 1 piercing, will be dealt at the start of the target's next turn. (Line 3.6 length, <code>[[Pot]]+[[Spell Damage]]+2</code> magic damage, 1 [[pierce]] [[fire]])

=== Bone ===

====Bonelance====
Propel a long cruel lance of bone to impale enemies. The lance originates from the centre point of a multi-tile object. (Line 4.6 length, <code>[[Pot]]+[[Spell Damage]]+1d2</code> damage, 1 [[pierce]], –[[Pot]] health to the Bone and other scenery struck)

=== Lamp (fire) ===

====Steal Fire====
The restless fire is unleashed onto a nearby tile, burning where it lands and dealing half damage to units it passes through. Extinguishes the Lamp. Destination tile can be occupied by foes, but not by other Blazes. (Line 4.6 length, <code>[[Pot]]+[[Spell Damage]]+2</code> magic damage, 1 [[pierce]], [[fire]])

=== Lamp (flare) ===

====Flare====
Amplify the radiance of this light source to excruciating levels, [[blind]]ing enemies. The flare counts as an attack for [[flanking]] if it hits. (AOE 3.6 radius centered on the Lamp, [[blind]] 1 turn, –2 health to Lamp)

=== Liquid ===

====Scalding Rain====
Boiling liquid burns away armor and gnaws at the enemy's flesh. (4.6 range, <code>[[Pot]]+[[Spell Damage]]+1d2</code> damage, 2 [[shred]], –1 health to Liquid)

=== Plant ===

====Wild Grasp====
The plant sends out tendrils that grab and draw in an enemy, dealing damage and [[Pinned|pinning]] them. Target is dragged back to the closest open point to the plant. (<code>[[Potency]]+[[Spell Damage]]</code> damage, 5.6 range, –1 health to Plant)

=== Metal ===

====Shackle====
Warp metal into grasping appendages that [[pin]] a single enemy for two turns. (4.6 range, 100% hit, [[pin]] 2 turns, <code>([[Potency]]+[[Spell Damage]]+1)/2</code> damage, –3 health to Metal)

=== Shards ===

====Sharktrap====
Animate shards on the floor like sharkfins, slashing the feet of intruders. Lays a single trap on the floor occupying multiple tiles, and affects the first enemy to step into any of the tiles. The traps work the same as Hunter [[Jumpjaw]] traps, except that each tile is a separate trap that is triggered independently. Creates [[debris]] in the affected area. (Line 5 length, <code>1+([[Potency]]+[[Spell Damage]])/2</code> damage, [[pin]] 1 turn, –2 health to Shards)

=== Stone ===

====Discus====
A stone disk launches at an enemy or scenery and then ricochets to another nearby enemy, dealing half damage to the second target, round up. For the purposes of determining [[Flanking]], the first hit comes from the interfused object and the second comes from the first target. The discus cannot hit through cover objects. If the first attack misses, the second does not occur. (4.6 range, <code>[[Pot]]+[[Spell Damage]]+2</code> damage, -3 health to Stone)

=== Textile ===

====Constrict====
A serpent of animated fabric wraps round an enemy, [[Hobble|hobbling]] it and squeezing away its life. (6.6 range, <code>[[Pot]]+[[Spell Damage]]</code> magic damage, [[hobble]] 2 turns, –1 health to Textile)

=== Tools ===

====Barrage====
Tools are torn into a deadly whirl, rending targets in a nearby area with their tooly teeth. The interfused object's health adds to your [[range accuracy]]. (AOE 2.1 radius, 3.6 range, <code>[[Pot]] + [[Spell Damage]] + 0-2</code> damage, destroys Tools)

=== Wood ===

=====Splinterblast=====
Explode a wooden object into a shredding blast of splinters that savages an area. The interfused object's health adds to your [[range accuracy]]. Spreads [[debris]] and fire. (AOE 1-3* radius, 2.6 range, <code>1+([[Potency]]+[[Spell Damage]])/3</code> damage, <code>([[Potency]]+[[Spell Damage]])/2</code> [[shred]], <code>([[Pot]]+[[Spell Damage]])/2</code> [[pierce]], destroys Wood)

* Splinterblast always destroys the interfused Wood entirely. The area of effect depends on its size in tiles, specifically <code>0.6 + 0.5×''size''</code> radius.

[[File:Crowtouched_Base.png|thumb|215px|right|A fully transformed Crowtouched [[Hunter]].]]

== About ==

[[File:Crowtouched_White.png|thumb|215px|right|The alternative "White" skin, unlocked after completing the "Fight Like a Bird" [[achievement]].]]

The [[hero]] gains Crow Head or Crow Wings and their [[history]] will include:

{{Quote|Wind in his/her wings, the dream was of wandering. A quest without end. One night, in an abandoned shed, in a rainstorm, s/he met a crow woman, and the dream came true. All the journeys afterwards felt more certain.}}

Crowtouched heroes are black by default. The alternate "White" skin can be unlocked by completing the "Fight Like a Bird" [[achievement]]. Neither theme skin is affected by the [[hero]]'s colors.

== Upgrades ==

[[File:Crow_Scratch+.png|frameless|215px|right| Ability upgrade to Crow Scratch.]]
(in a block..? would need to add theme upgrades/abilities to [[Ability]].)

Crow Scratch+: +1 base damage, scales twice as much with Bonus Damage and Potency. (Current damage increased by x)
