📋 About This Mod
What This Mod Does
This mod changes Karlach's underwear's rarity to "Very Rare" and gives them the passive "Karlach's Animal Training," an 18m/60ft radius aura which gives the "Stick Close to Mama K" buff to her summon, giving them the Dash, Disengage, and Hide abilities as bonus actions on their hotbar.
PLEASE NOTE: The language of this is written specifically to refer to Karlach, as this was inspired by the VA's tabletop session, wherein Karlach specifically was able to whistle a special way to give Scratch a disengage and get out of trouble, so I wanted to capture that feeling in a fairly easy-to-implement and not too cumbersome way. Technically, this will work for anyone who you put Karlach's underwear on, but the text is still going to refer to Karlach specifically for flavor reasons.
The spell effects shown in the pictures for this mod are not related to this mod, they are from unrelated buffs that I couldn't get rid of while taking the screenshots.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros

For Karlach mains who want to squeeze more utility out of her in combat. Also for fans of the VA's tabletop sessions who want a nod to that lore. Skip if you rarely use Karlach or prefer full overhaul mods.
