js if can be cancer sometimes. But always in good fun.

This mod is an ongoing project that will hope to add roughly 10-20 starts. After that, I’ll break it into a second mod as to not force people to have 50 some starts to sift through to find their favorites. I’d love to get as much feedback as possible, if anyone doesn’t want to make their own start, and would have me do it I’d love the practice and I’ll incoperate the idea, assuming it’s possible within the project itself. I tend to make these starts a bit easier than vanilla starts, as if you wanted to have a super hard start, you’d pick one of those.

This mod is (as far as I know) 100% compatable with every mod, and should remain compatable unless the devs change the way the new game menus work.

Description of each start:

Adventurer with a Bonehound
Not all adventures are filled with treasure and flesh. Some few are full of defeat and misery. Your story is one of those, but the details of it are for you to know only until you choose otherwise. All that is known of you is that you’ve done something really bad, or been part of something "evil," for lack of a better term so a large bounty has been placed on your head. In your travels you have domesticated a exceedingly rare Bonehound, which is basically a "better" Bonedog.

Bandit King (Dust)
The time you have spent with the Dust Bandits, is more.. enjoyable than anticipated. But the time has come for you to break off and form your own band of bandits. For you, are born to lead, born to be a king (or queen) of all the bandits in the known world. Let the world fear your slave armies.

Bandit Retirement (Dust)
You start with two people, One of them, considered "your" character, and has a backpack in addition to having decent armor at standard quality. Your companion is a default unedited Dust Bandit. You will also start with the same tech as the freedom seekers have. Faction relation a positive 50 with the Dust Bandits.

Banished
"You are a banished prince, cast off away from the Western Hive. While you will not be attacked by them, you are not welcome. You have demanded that a few of your loyal subjects come with you. Your wish was granted." A small group of Hivers banished from the Western Hive. One prince, two soldiers, two builders with enough materials to start a base.

Bounty Hunter
You start alone in Mongrel, with 1000 caps and have a bit of armor. Good enough to play as a "lone wolf" character and not die instantly when leaving Mongrel due to Fogmen. But you will lose if you are out numbered.

Clan of Nobody
As someone requested, 30 nobodies in one start. Nothing more. It’s exact same as Nobody start besides the amount of nobodies.

Craftsman
A lone craftsman trying to make their way in this godforsaken world. Your home was across one of the many great oceans, but your parents were caputured and brought here as slaves.

Deprived
Brutally hard, you start with actually nothing and with severe injuries. Only for the bravest of souls.

Empire of Nobody
I dont know if this will even work tbh, 256 nobodies. Same as above.

Holy Nation Paladin
This is a lone start in Stack with default Holy Paladin gear. Relations are positive 100 with Holy Nation -100 with Holy Nation Outlaws. You start with 750 cats. Pretty straight forward. Similar skill level to the default holy paladins.

Liar’s Curse — CHEAT
You are cursed with amnesia, and you awake to a large sum of materials and find yourself able to do things you had no clue you could do. You’re powerful. Also, for some reason everyone seems to be neutral to you.

Monk
A humble farmer, who in their free time practices martial arts. While you are not a master, not yet, you are a force to be reckoned with. You’ve led a peaceful life, but things have changed recently causing you to travel, forcing you out of your home. There is no going back, you’ve gathered what you could before being rudely evicted.

Noble
Born into a life of luxury you grew tired of the elegance of every waking moment. At an uncertain moment something triggered in your head and made you decide to leave the safety of your palace for a real adventure. You start with noob, but slightly above default combats and a beefy bag of gold.

Professor (wip)
You’re a professor that is now out of a job due to affirmative action. A hiver stole your job because they are oppressed to the point where their culture is diminishing. They gotta feed their tribe too. Something like this is bound to leave bad blood in the air.

Silvertongue
This is my take on an rogue like character, you start with neutral relations with most "ninjas" positive 60 with Black Dragon and -60 with White Eyebrow. Starting with the same tech as Freedom seekers plus Storage Box research to store all your stolen goods. You will also start with a semi random bounty anywhere from 5000-15000 depending on your roll. Though there is a small chance to have no bounty. It is presumed that you got this bounty awhile back when your character was known as "Silvertongue"

The Cult of Tranqulity
A mix of races that shun the violence of the world and now seek to build a refuge of their own safe from the violence they have seen tear their families and loved ones from the world. Finding refuge on the outskirts of the Great Desert the travelers pay tribute to the world and set off into the unknown searching for a better life to live. You will start with anywhere between 16 members, to 68 of various races. Will you be able to control the problems that would surely come with so many people?

The Hungover Ninja (Restored content)
This is content that has been very slightly modified from the original game. It was then removed by a later update. I’ve restored it, I did not create this one. Simply brought it back.

The Slave
This is really "The Slaves" start, minus the other starting person that is there to help you. You are totally alone in your escape attempts. You can’t just leave one behind and have the other escape. You must actually escape or simply die. As per usual, get in your cage.

The Slaver
You’re a slaver, known for ruthlessness and overworking your cattle. Treat these ones right and you’ll be able to forge an

Again, I love feedback! Let me know how I did! Are my starts total trash? Should I find a new hobby? Are they super unbalanced? Let me know in the comments! Also, when I first started making this mod my name was "glassofwater" hence why I use the "gow" tag throughout my mod.
