• Drag the contents of the plugins folder from inside the archive to your BepInEx plugins folder in the Valheim directory.

Cheb's Valheim Library

Cheb's Valheim Library (CVL) is a DLL that contains shared code across my mods. For example, both skeletons from Cheb's Necromancy and mercenaries from Cheb's Mercenaries inherit the ChebGonazMinion type from CVL. This permits mercenaries to be commanded by a wand, and vice versa.

My mods are bundled with the latest CVL at the time of their release, but if you want to upgrade, you can get the newest CVL here.

Features

Detailed info in the wiki. Here's the short version:

• Almost everything is configurable. Minions too weak/overpowered? Tweak them.
• Player vs Player (PvP) settings can be configured as of 4.5.0.
• As of 4.6.0, further minion appearance customization options are available. You can change the eye color of your minions and also give them special symbols on their capes. And in 4.7.0 you can change the bone color of skeletons too.
• Craftable items at the workbench and forge:

+ Skeleton Wand: Summons skeleton warriors, archers, miners, and woodcutters.

+ Draugr Wand: Summons draugr warriors and archers.

+ Orb of Beckoning Summons skeleton mages and can be thrown to direct minions to go somewhere. It also sticks to enemies so that minions will chase after an enemy.

+ Spectral Shroud: A cloak that increases your Necromancy level, looks cool, and attracts spirits to it. If you're powerful enough, they will serve.

+ Necromancer Hood: A cool hood to match the cloak.

+ Necromancer's Backpack: An optional integration with AdventureBackpacks (, ), which offers a Necromancy backpack that doubles as a Spectral Shroud.

• While holding a Skeleton Wand, Draugr Wand, or Orb of Beckoning you can control the minions:

+ B will make a minion.

+ H will cycle minion types (eg. switch from Warrior to Archer) created by B.

+ F will make all nearby minions follow you.

+ T will make all nearby minions wait.

+ Shift+T will make minions roam.

+ G will teleport all following minions to your position (useful if stuck or to get them on boats)

• A new Necromancy Skill which increases the quality of your minions and allows you to upgrade them.
• Minion health increases with Necromancy level.
• Minions ignore collision with the player so you won't be trapped.
• Minions do not deal damage to player structures and are not affected by sharpened stakes.
• Minions remember who created them and cannot be commanded by other players.
• Upgrades: Having additional items in your inventory when you summon can create an upgraded version of a minion. As a safety measure to prevent you from accidentally consuming stuff, hold Left Shift when creating a minion to permit these resources to be consumed (or set to None in the
