EnemyMutations

EnemyMutations

Every monster on Petrichor V can now spawn twisted. Same enemies you

know - new versions you don't.

Part of The Petrichor Protocol by Dileppy.

Enemies roll a mutation chance on spawn (12% base, +2% per stage, both

configurable). A mutated enemy looks different, fights different, and

rewards different.

The launch mutations

| Mutation | Effect | Reward |

| --- | --- | --- |

| Giant | 175% size, double HP, +30% damage, slower | 2x gold/XP |

| Tiny | 50% size, fragile, +50% speed, +25% attack speed | 1.3x |

| Frenzied | +50% speed and attack speed, -25% HP | 1.4x |

| Volatile | Explodes on death - watch your positioning | 1.5x |

| Treasure | Rare. Tanky, dangerous, announced in chat | 4x gold/XP |

Every mutation has its own enable toggle. Boss and elite mutation

gates, Treasure upgrade chance, Volatile blast damage and radius - all

configurable.

Design intent

Mini-boss moments without new models. A Giant Beetle is a wall. A

Frenzied Lemurian is a problem RIGHT NOW. A Volatile anything makes

you think about where you kill it. And when the gold Treasure message

appears, you have a decision to make.

The Petrichor Protocol

This mod is part of a modular challenge ecosystem. Install

PetrichorProtocol and every

Dileppy modifier you run contributes to a Risk Score, a challenge

tier, and scaled rewards - announced at the start of every run.

Stacks with the whole collection:

• Mutations + EnlargedEnemies = kaiju Giants
• Mutations + ShrunkenEnemies = microscopic swarm terror
• Mutations + ShrunkenSurvivor = survival horror energy
• Mutations + BiggerBullets = you will need them

Config

BepInEx/config/dileppy.enemymutations.cfg, generated on first launch.

Multiplayer

Mutations are rolled by the host, so the host must run this mod.

Singleplayer is the primary supported mode.
