The Stargazer Class Mod

"The space between worlds is no place for mortal men..."

The Stargazer is an all new class mod for Darkest Dungeon. He is a frail but powerful damage dealer, an astronomer who has been touched by an unfathomable astral force, granting him abilities that can only be described as magic. By tapping into this force, he opens himself to phenomenal cosmic power, which can possess him, body and soul, tearing away at his psyche. As a result, one is never fully in control of the Stargazer's actions, and if pushed too far, he may lose control. He has fully original assets, including sprites, animations, and sounds.

"Imbued with cosmic forces beyond his comprehension, the Stargazer bends space and time to his will, flinging his enemies across the battlefield with volatile energy some would call magic. His true strength is beyond his understanding, however, and he is never fully in control of his own actions."

Note: When the Stargazer reaches 100 stress, he will always become Refracted. This has many of the negatives of other afflictions, but also greatly increases his Speed, Dodge and damage, as well as occasionally having positive effects such as healing or buffing himself.
