Characters and starting weapons

Malum Caedo and Neave Blacktalon are the starters. Kozlowski, The Legend of Catachan, Ulgromthier and Lyssa Revenya are rescued on the stages. Select a character to compare starting weapons, base Wounds, prices and abilities.

Prices are in coins and may not be the whole cost of unlocking a character. Four characters have older ability descriptions that differ from the current wording; their details show both. Malum’s current ability gives +5% Strength for every weapon and passive equipped. Whether his older level-based bonuses also apply is not known.

What about Lorai?

Section titled “What about Lorai?”

Lorai, Child of the Abyss is in the demo files but hidden, and no way to unlock her is known. Nebulous Sea-Fog, her starting weapon, has its own unlock goal, so seeing the weapon does not mean Lorai is playable.
