📋 About This Mod

74 Touhou origins including Youkai, Deities and even Humans

What this mod hopes to achieve:

  • Add origins based on as many touhou characters/species as possible, also offering alternative origins within the same species/character, like ReimuA and ReimuB.
  • Depict the basic character abilities/personality without necessarily being 100% faithful to the lore, e.g. Flandre = Destruction and Fairies = Nature.
  • Keep the origins somewhat balanced (e.g. no direct upgrades over other origins) and hopefully fun.
  • Allow different playstyles depending on the origin, e.g. Sakuya = Precise, Keiki = Builder, Satori = Support, etc

As of version 0. 19. X, the mod adds 74 different origins. Refer to (https://github.com/wdfeer/esoterica-origins/blob/master/docgen/origins.md) for names and descriptions of their powers as seen in-game.

## Not Origins

1. Flawless status effect: used to depict immortality on some origins (mostly Lunarians) without making them literally unkillable, inspired by (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1140150/Touhou_Lost_Branch_of_Legend/). \ Reduces all damage taken to 1. 2. Graze status effect: used to depict dodging/agile origins, primarily tengu. \ Reduces the next damage taken to 0 and reduces its own amplifier by 1 (e.g. `Graze II => Graze I => no Graze`).
