Description:

A kind and gentle soul, the Pureheart selflessly supports her team with powerful healing and stress relief, if only she were more cautious about her own well being. Virtuous to the core, she will always put others before herself when pushed to the brink, to a troubling degree.

=====Overview=====

Based on Falin from the Manga and Anime Dungeon Meshi, the Pureheart is powerful support with great utility, but can easily become overstressed and a unique "Virtue" makes her difficult to control and even harder to keep safe.

The Selfless virtue greatly lowers deathblow resist, guardbreaks her, makes her refuse all healing and buffs, and has a very high chance to act out, forcing a random action, forward move, or self mark. There is a chance that she will also increase her own stress instead of acting out, which may work out in your favor as reaching 200 stress will remove the Virtued effect.

Her natural Deahblow resist is 50% and she deals extra stress to the party on death, so make sure you protect her.

Brings 6 stacks of the unique Raspberry item as provisions, which reduces stress by 2 on use. She also has a chance to find a small amount of Raspberries when investigating curios.

On Crit, she gains -33% stress for 3 rounds.

She is Religious and uses the Athenaeum.

Her camping skills provide extremely powerful healing and defensive buffs for allies or stress relief for self.

=====Other=====
Had to make more than a few stretches to make her kit work, probably should have just made her a transforming hero like everyone wanted. Maybe I’ll do that later as an optional patch.

The virtue gimmick was by far the hardest part of this to get working from a design standpoint, let me know if the balance is still off.

This one uses a lot more custom sounds than usual, let me know if any are too loud or quiet, I have mild tinnitus irl so it might be a little off.

Gentle Exorcism was originally going to be a her stun ability, but for several reasons was changed to the current version.

Calming Presence was originally going to be "Dog Impression, But Cute" which is why its effects basically an inverted version of her brother’s skill. That might also be an optional patch later.

Chimeralin boss fight coming Soon(tm), but something will probably distract me, like that Meshi curio art replacer idea I had or the Timesplitters tribute I was thinking about. Expect a Hakumei & Mikochi mod soon for real tho.

At least 2 or 3 more Meshi characters after this and a couple monster mods, will pick up the speed on them once we get some Season 2 news.

Had to fill in a few blanks in her dialogue with Yor Forger quotes, mainly because they have the same JP VA.

Talking about shipping is like talking about Politics and Religion, so I didn’t include any of it in this mod, aside from a reference to "The Thouden Sandwich" which counts as neutral ground.
