Patchouli Knowledge

Patchouli Character Mod

Adds Patchouli as a playable character.

Overview:

• Colors: Blue and Black.
• Cards: 73.

Main themes:

Boost (Blue): Boost cards get more powerful the more cards are played while they remain in the hand. Some cards get stronger, some get a lower a mana cost and some even get additional effects. Plan your turn wisely to maximize those bonuses. With the proper setup and planning, Patchouli gets access to some explosive turns.

Signs (Black): Patchouli can manipulate the five elements as well as the Sun and Moon. Similarly to the Defect from Slay the Spire, Those elements provide various passive benefits over time. Here, those elements only last for a few turns but generate mana of the corresponding element before disappearing. Decide whether to specialize in one element or have a wide range of spells at your disposal for every situation.
