Charlie, the playable character mod

Unleash Charlie: A New Playable Survivor for Don’t Starve Together

Step into the shadows and experience Don’t Starve Together from a new, intriguing perspective with the addition of Charlie as a fully playable character. Inspired by her role in the lore, this mod brings Maxwell’s enigmatic assistant to life, offering a unique challenge and a distinct playstyle for dedicated survivors.

Embrace the Darkness, Embrace the Challenge

Charlie is not your typical survivor. Her connection to the ever-present darkness of the Constant has shaped her in profound ways, manifesting in her gameplay mechanics. While she may be less resilient in terms of raw health, her true strength emerges when the sun dips below the horizon.

Charlie’s Unique Traits and Abilities

This mod introduces several key characteristics that set Charlie apart:

• Sanity Drain: Charlie’s connection to the darkness means her sanity dwindles at an accelerated rate (x1.25).
• Lower Health: With a maximum health of 113, players will need to be more strategic in avoiding direct confrontation, especially during daylight hours.
• Time-Based Damage Bonus: Charlie’s combat effectiveness fluctuates with the passage of time. Her damage multiplier increases significantly as night falls, rewarding players who can adapt their strategies to the changing environment. This bonus applies to both unarmed attacks and all equippable weapons.

A Word on Custom Sound

Please note that due to current limitations with custom character sounds in the Steam Workshop for Don’t Starve Together, the version of Charlie with custom sound effects is available exclusively through the official forums. This is to ensure broader compatibility and prevent potential issues with mod lists. Players are strongly advised to ensure all members of their party are using the identical version of the mod (either the sound or soundless version) to guarantee Charlie’s proper functionality for everyone in the group.

This mod offers a fresh take on survival, pushing players to master the rhythm of day and night and to strategize their engagements carefully. Explore the Constant anew with Charlie and see if you can withstand the trials that await.
