Skill

9 Lives

Granted to Donut on Floor-3 cat-race selection. Half- damage mitigation on the first nine physical attacks taken per day; resets on the day/night cycle.

Bk 2 · Ch 1
Skill

Character Actor

Donut's Former Child Actor skill: on each floor she picks a "specialty" class and gains a random subset of its skills and spells for that floor only, leaving her existing kit untouched. It levels only on descent — one level per floor.

Bk 2 · Ch 1
Skill

Cockroach

Class skill granted at Former Child Actor selection. Level 5 guarantees one free lethal-hit survival per combat encounter, leaving Donut at near-death health afterward. The skill represents the in-fiction "cockroach" of the class — outlasts hits a normal crawler shouldn't.

Bk 1 · Ch 47
Spell

Second Chance

Donut's necromancy spell. Raises a recently-killed mob (must be lower level than caster) as a Level-1 undead minion. The raised corpse retains weak motor function and can be verbally commanded but has no formal control interface.

Bk 1 · Ch 30
Skill

Dodge

Mordecai flags Dodge as Donut's most-important survival skill given her low health pool. He notes that hitting Level 5 makes the skill markedly easier to use — implying a usability cliff at the threshold typical of DCC active skills.

Bk 1 · Ch 25
Spell

Puddle Jumper

Donut's signature mobility spell. Teleports the caster and up to three others to a target location within line of sight. Range scales with spell level. At level 15, functions essentially as Teleport — one of the most powerful spells in the dungeon.

Bk 1 · Ch 25
Spell

Torch

Hands-free light source spell. Summons a luminous curl that trails the caster — no torch to hold, no inventory slot consumed. Mordecai explains the spell strengthens with use; the brighter the light, the higher the effective level.

Bk 1 · Ch 12
Skill

Back Claw

Companion skill to Slice Attack — uses the rear paws for a kicking strike, often paired with a forward slice in the same flurry. Higher levels add damage and increase the chance of drawing blood through low-tier armor.

Bk 1 · Ch 10
Skill

Slice Attack

Donut's signature claw attack — a forward-swiping slice with the front paws. Combined with her elevated Growth-buff Strength, the slice penetrates leather armor by mid-Floor-1. Donut keeps it in reserve while Magic Missile is her primary attack but uses it when mana runs dry.

Bk 1 · Ch 10
Skill

Light on Your Feet

Lets Donut pounce higher and farther.

Bk 1 · Ch 9
Skill

Good First Impression

Social-skill that biases first-encounter NPC reactions toward favourable. Combined with Donut's already-elevated Charisma it produces the diplomatic posture she uses to charm the goblin shamankas, Tally, and various Floor-2 vendors.

Bk 1 · Ch 7
Spell

Magic Missile

Donut's primary attack spell. Fires a blue-cyan projectile bolt from her eyes. Scaling damage based on caster Intelligence and skill level.
