Hi there.
Yeah, you – the stranger on the other side of the pixels.If you’ve been missing mods like Velaya or The Long Way Home, I’ve got something that might scratch that itch. Or maybe you just want to spice up what’s happening on your screen a little? Then this little mini-micro-mod might be just what you need! Probably...
As you’ve probably guessed by now, this small mod lets you swap out the scruffy guy’s mug for a set of female polygons – and lets you play a whole new type of character: a sorceress (pure-blood, refined magic lady). Alongside that, it expands the game’s magical system and adds a few small gameplay tweaks.
This mod is made by EthernalBreeze, and as noted below, it’s not guaranteed to be 100% stable or perfectly polished – you play at your own risk. I haven’t personally tested it yet, so I’m just passing along the info as I found it. It’s made for the New Balance mod.
Let’s break it down:
F0rtuno’s Note – This mod was created by EthernalBreeze, and I haven’t tried it myself yet, so I don’t know much more about it beyond what the author has shared. Everything you see here is directly based on the author’s own description, and I can’t offer any additional answers or support. As mentioned earlier, this is more of a sarcastic, experimental fun mod – so you’re playing at your own risk when it comes to stability and potential bugs.
Magic System
Galahad now has access to several magical grimoires from various magic schools – unlocked based on chapter and level.Each magic school has 5 levels of specialization – each level boosts the power of that school’s spells, adds effects, etc.The stronger your hero is as a mage, the more schools they can learn and the more bonuses they gain for magical actions – including aura enhancements.
Auras – At the final level, most schools grant an aura. Auras scale with Intelligence and often rely on magic power for effectiveness.Only one aura can be active at a time, and it will reserve 1/3 of your total mana.
Traders – Increased amount of scrolls and food in shops; items appear randomly.
Magic School Masters:
Fire – Extra fire damage; aura ignites enemies. Bonuses for fire golems.
Ice – Extra ice damage; attacks freeze. Bonuses for ice golems.
Air – Extra wind damage; aura increases dodge chance (scales with magic power).
Electricity – Extra lightning damage; aura electrifies attackers.
Earth – Extra earth damage; aura grants defense based on INT. Bonuses for swamp golems.
Poison – Extra poison damage; aura poisons attackers.
Light – Extra light damage; aura absorbs magic.
Darkness – Extra dark damage; aura can apply DoT on hit or being hit.
Death – Necrosummons are stronger; magic damage bonus. Aura drains life.
Life – Bonus to healing, stronger beast summons. Aura regenerates HP.
Witchcraft – Main skill for summoning. Minor bonuses to all summons, increases summon limit.
Golemancy – Bonuses to all golems.
Demonology – Summoned demons are stronger.
Battle Mage – Adds chance for critical spell damage. Grants energy shield.
Spell Tweaks:
Unlocking – Has a chance to provide bonus magical loot when opening locks, based on Magic Power.
New "Class" – Sorceress/Sorcerer
Focused purely on magic with the following traits:
Max HP can never exceed 2/3 of total – otherwise it starts draining at 1%/sec until back to cap.
When Mana drops below 1/3, HP is drained to restore mana (up to 1/3 of max HP).
Starts with energy shield.
Begins with a few scrolls and a random grimoire.
Can learn one extra mastery.
No bonus HP from leveling. Starts at 50% health.

Custom female head model.
Animations no longer reset like they used to.

Notes:
Hero’s voice does not change 😉
Yes, it’s clearly cheaty/unbalanced – the gods will punish sinners! But it’s not that bad anymore.
Not thoroughly tested – no stability guarantees, but it works well enough for now.
Enjoy playing. (Or rather, testing – for now!)
