Don’t Starve Together Character Mods

Playable characters created for the Don’t Starve Together modding community. I designed and programmed their abilities and traits using Lua, created original art assets, and wrote custom dialogue.

Description

A jumpy little goblin. Quick on her feet and even quicker with her wits, Bolt is a crafty and scrappy addition to Don’t Starve Together’s character roster.

Bolt’s main draws are her increased damage while at low sanity levels, her ability to see in the dark, and the increase in speed she receives when struck by lightning.

Dialogue Samples

"H-Hello! (Please don't kill me.)"

"Everything went wrong... just like I knew it would!"

"I should have built... a lifting machine..."

"That's for daytime sleeping. Interesting distinction, I know."

"I don't feel so good. Which is impressive, considering I'm dead."

"Ooh! Schematics!"

Description

A refined, gentlemanly type, Atlas Arameus Avignon is a born leader striving for a life of fame. Brave, snarky, and hungry for battle, this showy swordsman isn’t one to back down from a chance at glory.

Atlas’ main quirks are his proficiency in battle, his restrictive and persnickety diet, and the sanity aura he provides when he’s around to uplift his friends.

Dialogue Samples

"I'm all for avant-garde, but this is a little out there. Even for me."

"This isn't... gentleman's work..."

"And WHAT, pray tell, is wrong with my current outfit?"

"Edible, if you're desperate. Which I'm not."

"You can't improve upon perfection. Trust me."

"Ugh, prying you off my boot is going to be an ordeal."

"Go ahead, call for backup! You'll need it!"

"Knowledge is power. And I'm VERY powerful."

Description

A rare combination of satyr and harpy, Zwarte Koza Moon is a follower of Morena and friend of Atlas. A bit of a scaredy-cat, his sanity drains quickly unless his friends are there to calm him down.

Zwarte’s fey nature makes him naturally fleet of foot and nonthreatening to prey animals. Due to his harpy lineage, he's also capable of eating things most people wouldn't be able to stomach with no penalty to his sanity.

Dialogue Samples

"I don't think we're in Eorya anymore..."

"Morena has blessed me with light!"

"I-I'm soaked! Wet goat is such a terrible smell!"

"...I could use the bones."

Description

A reformed affiliate of an illegal scientific operation, Cobalt is a sour, emotionless, and cruel shadow-satyr.

Cobalt is one with the darkness, unharmed by it and freely able to move around at night. She deals more damage and gains sanity in darkness, though at daytime she experiences the opposite. Because she is considered a monster, creatures that are typically friendly to players will attack her on sight.

Dialogue Samples

"Make some space. This is probably more important."

"Guess I'll drown."

"A barking more vicious than my father's."

"Maybe I deserve this..."

"I think Bolt is finally sick of me."

Description

Meet Nibs! Nibs is a rambunctious and excitable little robot goblin that is quick to call dibs on anything he can get his hands on. He doesn't perform so well in the rain, as it hurts him and slows him down. Fortunately, you won't have to worry about feeding him, as he does not go hungry.

Nibs has a “Kill Mode” that occurs during a full moon, making him faster and stronger than usual. Being around players that are significantly injured will gradually damage his sanity, as he hates to see his friends in pain.

Dialogue Samples

Work in progress.
