The Dragon Tamer

Description
In Slay the Spire, you fight alone, but enemies can attack you in groups. Isn't that unfair? Well, it's time to change that!

In this mod, you always have Dragon on your side, fighting together!

This is a full character mod with 75 new cards, 12 relics.

Available languages: ENG, KOR, ZHS, RUS, SPA. See below for the translators.


Two Characters

In this mod, your team has two characters: You(Player) and Dragon. They are discrete characters, having separate HP, Block, buff/debuff, etc. When Dragon dies, it will revive with 1 HP at the end of combat. But when You die, it's a game over! Be careful.

Not everything is separate though, the two characters share energy and cards. You control both characters by playing cards. If a card says 'Dragon deals X damage', Dragon attacks. 'Dragon gains X Block' gives Dragon Block. Some cards affect the Front, the Rear (see below), or even both characters. If none are specified, they only affect You. This means Colorless cards and cards from other characters only affect You.


Managing Aggro

Enemies don't attack randomly; they always attack the Front. Who is the Front? The character with higher Aggro.

Whenever You or Dragon attacks, the attacker gains 1 Aggro. You can only see the Aggro difference between them; the absolute amounts don't matter. This Aggro difference of the two determines who will be the Front and the Rear. When the Aggro of the Rear becomes higher than the Front, they switch. You may want to switch strategically, such as protecting a vulnerable character, take advantage of Temporary HP from the starting relic, and many more.


Evolving Dragon

At the end of Act 1 and Act 2, Dragon will evolve! Depending on your deck composition, you can choose a different dragon. For example, if you have 8 Attack cards at the end of Act 1, Dragon can evolve into Red Dragon, which starts each combat with 1 Strength.


Other stuff

- Having trouble Blocking enemy attacks? You might want to Weaken them.
- Some powerful Dragon attacks can create Burns. Deal with the burns, or just quickly finish the battle!
- Bonding: Mantra-like buff with a twist. Whenever your team gains 5 Bonding, choose 1 of 3 random powerful bonuses. Only works while Dragon is alive, so keep Dragon safe!
- The character has many simple or base game-like cards, but this doesn't make the character simple to play!

@dEVoRaTriX_LuX Thanks for the report. The crash with Lazy Man's Kits should be fixed in v1.2.2.

@joshyawesome I'm sorry but I can't fix a crash when that can't be replicated(It doesn't crash for me). Can you give me what other mods you are using and/or the crash log?

@Dracos Taibhse Thanks for the information. The crash happened because Ascension Reborn mod is not updated for the most recent Slay the Spire patch. I could replicate the same crash only with that mod loaded, and the comments of Ascension Reborn mod confirm the crash as well.

Unfortunately, I can't help you to avoid this crash. I tried 2.0 compatibility mod (by Alchyr) to see if it fixes the crash, but it didn't. So you should either wait for the authors to update Ascension Reborn mod, or disable it.

@Dracos Taibhse Hi, can you give me what mods you are using and/or the crash log? I couldn't replicate the crash myself. Thanks.
