@Charleco Hello. Do you have the previous sprite? I'm considering making a new subtype based off of my idea of making a new subtype with an intelligent researcher background and the current stats and sprite be more of a native/fighter type. I'll give you credit if I ever make it.

@Charleco What are your thoughts on that other variant of the subtype, the intelligent one?

@Charleco that'd be completely fine!

@Syfferyn i could def just merge your sprite into the mod and give you credit, since it fits so well with qud's lineup. Im no artist lmao. Just lmk :)

@Syfferyn Remember you start with a fungal infection. This means you lose a slot somewhere on your body. The +3 strength and +1 toughness doesn't make up for it fully, but it definitely is a form of compensation for that. If anything, this build is underpowered due to the fungal infection, but it is definitely an interesting way to start by having one already.

I also uploaded a mod that resprites the subtype to better match Caves of Qud's artstyle. Don't get me wrong, the current sprite does the job, though I do think it can be improved.

If you want me to take it down, just let me know.

I like this concept, but I do think having it start with +3 strength and +1 toughness seems a bit much, considering Greybeard is the only calling that starts with a +3 (albeit to a single stat)

I recommend sticking with 1 stat (strength or toughness) and increasing it by just +2, like the rest of the callings; have it start with either +2 strength or +2 toughness

if the strength is absolutely necessary, +1 strength and +1 toughness

Please change the head of my sprite (only head, not mushroom iroquois)
