Bloater Profession Mod

Bloated, sickly, disgusting, yet surprisingly capable and friendly. This describes the bloater perfectly. A jolly fat man from an unknown part of the world, carrying within him every plague imaginable. But some strange pagan fetish saved him from decay and kept him alive. He valued friendship, a good story and a good meal.

🎮Character Characteristics

A very cautious man who tries not to let his amulet break, the Bloat has developed a unique fighting style. He usually sits in the middle of the back row, spreading his disease-laden sludge via a custom-made slime blaster. He also uses the side effects of his numerous illnesses to his advantage, such as attaching insects to his enemies or covering himself in a crust of mold.

From a gameplay perspective, this can be roughly understood as: **a ranged off-tank/blighter with some buffs**.

However, life for a bloat isn't all flowers and joy. For example, he was banned from brothels for obvious reasons.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
