Musketeer

"A champion markswoman - keen for a new kind of challenge."

The Musketeer is a reskin of the Arbalest available to the Adventurer Tier ($49) backers for Darkest Dungeon's Kickstarter. She provides new visuals and barks to match her character, with no other functional differences to the regular Arbalest hero.

Lore
Despite being only a reskin, the Musketeer has her own lore, and blacksmith, survivalist and guild description. "A competitive sharpshooter with little practical experience, the Musketeer excels when enemies remain at a distance. Her unerring eye and practiced reloading makes[sic] a dependable damage dealer, and her smokescreen, first aid, and skeet shot provide some supportive utility to the party."

- The Guild

"Although outwardly inconspicuous, the Musketeer's regalia is reinforced with hardened leather underarmor, allowing her to sustain a considerable amount of focus fire. Her musket's variable ammunition and trusty sidearm allow her to deal debilitating damage at range."

- The Blacksmith

"The Musketeer understands that her's[sic] is a delicate instrument, and must be properly maintained if it to be relied upon in the heat of battle! She is equally adept and providing first aid to her companions, if only to keep them between her and her targets."

- The Survivalist

Combat Skills
All of the Arbalest's combat skills have a new icon and name to fit the reskinned character, while keeping the same values and functionality as the originals.

Camping Skills
No camping skill has been revised, with the exception of Restring Crossbow, which is renamed to Clean Musket, its icon being also replaced with a reskin of the Highwayman's Clean Guns.

Equipment
Each Hero has trinkets unique to them that only they can equip. The Musketeer has seven; 2 common, 2 Crimson Court and 1 uncommon, rare and very rare. In the base game, her lower level trinkets are boots and her high level trinkets are hats. The Crimson Court DLC adds a musket ball and second place trophy.

District Bonus
The Crimson Court DLC adds Districts to the Hamlet, some of which confer passive benefits to heroes.
