Idle Champions: Simril 9 
Posted in Idle Champions.

    Simril is ruined! Someone or something has been pillaging all the food stores of Luskan, leaving very little leftover for the feast of Simril, let alone the long, cold winter to follow. Your party has been hired to hunt down this ruiner-of-holidays and recover the stolen sustenance.
It's time for our final event of 2025: celebrating Faerûn's winter solstice with Simril 9!

We are incredibly excited for players to get their first chance to unlock the last new Champion of 2025, Lark Silverstring, the tiefling bard of the Fallbacks party. Lark is a Support, Speed, and Debuff Champion, so we have little doubt he will find his way into many of your formations.

Coming next week on December 10 will be our second Featured Champion for Simril, Nordom the Modron. Nordom has been reworked with an emphasis on providing more utility while reinforcing his link to Modron Cores. You'll be able to learn all about the Nordom Champion Update when the blog goes live on Friday, December 5.

Now, on with the show -- let's talk about Simril Year 9!

Featured Champions

Lark

A consummate showman and performer, Lark loves the spotlight, but his desire for attention might end up getting him killed. Hunted by mysterious enemies with deadly intent, Lark has nevertheless managed to forge a degree of notoriety and a small fan following as a bard, all while evading his pursuers and any questions about who is hunting him and why. Lark left his old band of performers and initially joined up with the Fallbacks in order to surround himself with powerful protectors. He didn’t expect to catch feelings for the group in the process, but he’s adjusting. The show must go on, after all.


Learn more about Lark in his Champion Spotlight.

Nordom

Modrons are the embodiment of law and order, marching in lockstep through the planes. But when Nordom Whistlklik was separated from his fellow modrons, the essence of chaos infected this rogue quadrone. Now with his crossbow-shaped gear spirits in hand, he works to fit his complex new outlook into his logical—if quirky—understanding of the planes.


Learn more about Nordom in his Champion Spotlight when it launches this Friday, December 5th.

Idle Champions New Champion: Lark  
Posted in Idle Champions.

    A consummate showman and performer, Lark loves the spotlight, but his desire for attention might end up getting him killed. Hunted by mysterious enemies with deadly intent, Lark has nevertheless managed to forge a degree of notoriety and a small fan following as a bard, all while evading his pursuers and any questions about who is hunting him and why. Lark left his old band of performers and initially joined up with the Fallbacks in order to surround himself with powerful protectors. He didn’t expect to catch feelings for the group in the process, but he’s adjusting. The show must go on, after all.
Lark is a Support, Speed, and Debuff Champion who boosts the damage of Champions in the middle of his formation. He favors sharp words over sharp weapons, but when all else fails, he’ll reach for his crossbow, Last Resort. This impulsive showman has a habit of running off on his own and landing himself in trouble.

Abilities

Basic Attack

  • Vicious Mockery (magic) - Lark attacks a random enemy, dealing 1 hit. Lark prefers to attack enemies he hasn't attacked yet.

Passive Abilities

  • Uggie! - Uggie joins the party, starting next to Lark unless she's already in the formation next to another Fallbacks Champion. Uggie increases the damage of all non-adjacent Champions by 100%.

Formation Abilities

  • Devil May Care - Lark increases the damage of all Champions that aren't in the first or last column by 100%.
  • Uptempo Uggie - Uggie's buff is increased by 400% when Lark is in the formation.
  • Bardic Perspiration - When Uggie is with Lark, and at least 50% of the area's quest requirements are met, Lark sprints off to the next area, leaving the formation (and Uggie) behind. When the formation catches up to him, Lark has already antagonized several enemies, spawning 1 enemy in the next area before the formation even arrives.
    • Updated Basic Attack: Uggie's Bite (melee) - Uggie leaps out and bites a random enemy, dealing 1 hit. Uggie will prioritize enemies she hasn't attacked yet.
  • Rapt Audience - When Lark attacks an enemy and does not defeat it, the enemy gains the Charmed debuff. Charmed enemies take 100% additional damage for each Charmed debuff that Lark has applied in the current area, stacking multiplicatively and capping at 10 stacks. If Lark attacks an enemy he has already Charmed, it still increments his Charmed count for the area. Once Lark applies his maximum number of Charmed stacks in an area, he switches over to use his crossbow, named Last Resort.
    • Updated Basic Attack: Last Resort (ranged) - Lark fires his Crossbow at the closest enemy dealing 5 seconds of BUD based damage.

Specializations

  • Band of Misfits - Lark increases the damage of Devil May Care by 100% for each unique class in the formation, stacking multiplicatively.
  • Center of Attention - Lark increases the damage of Devil May Care by 175% for each Fallback Champion and/or Champion with a Charisma score of 13 or lower in the formation, stacking multiplicatively.
  • Path of Nightmares - Lark increases the damage of Devil May Care by 150% for each Tiefling and/or Evil Champion in the formation, stacking multiplicatively.

Ultimate Ability

  • Enthrall (magic) - Lark's powerful performance deals 1 ultimate hit to all enemies and charms them, making them more susceptible to additional damage.

Champion Update: Yorven  
Posted in Idle Champions.

    When Yorven came across the Witchlight Carnival he managed to convince the owners to bring him on board. When the Witchlight Carnival returned to the Feywild years later, Yorven moved on, seeking his childhood home - and the hags who banished him.

The ever grimdark Yorven Springpaw has received a major update to modernize his design, give him a special Witchlight-focused niche, and a stronger Support role.

Learn all about this Yorven update below!

Abilities

Basic Attack

  • Ferocious Maul (melee) - Yorven leaps at the nearest enemy, pinning it in place and attacking it once every second for 5 seconds.

Passive Abilities

  • Witchlight Hand - Yorven can be used in any Wild Beyond the Witchlight campaign adventure or variant, even if he would not normally be available to be used due to variant or patron restrictions.

Formation Abilities

  • Rag Tag Team - Yorven increases the damage of all Champions in the formation by 100% for each unique species in the formation, stacking multiplicatively.
  • Blood Fury Tattoo - Yorven gains a Blood Fury stack for each enemy that has been damaged in the current area. His damage is increased by 100% for each Blood Fury stack, stacking multiplicatively. Bosses provide 15 stacks when they are damaged. Caps at 25 stacks.
  • Danger Sense - All Champions take 5 less damage from all attacks, and Rag Tag Team is increased by 500% each time Yorven's max health is doubled, stacking multiplicatively.
  • Down The Rabbit Hole - Yorven increases the effect of Rag Tag Team by 20% for each adventure, variant, and Patron variant you have completed in the Wild Beyond the Witchlight campaign, stacking multiplicatively.

Specializations

  • Hunger For Blood - Yorven's damage is increased by 1000% and if an enemy dies while he is attacking it with Ferocious Maul, he immediately leaps to another enemy and begins attacking that one. This adds one additional attack to Ferocious Maul each time it triggers.
  • Eldritch Claw Tattoo - Each time Yorven Springpaw attacks during Ferocious Maul, an inky tendril of Eldritch energy shoots out and zaps a different random enemy, dealing 1 second of BUD-based damage. The amount is increased by 400% if Yorven is the BUD-setting Champion. If no other enemies are on screen, this ability does nothing.
  • Follow The Mad Rabbit - Yorven's Rag Tag Team is increased by 50% for each Blood Fury stack Yorven has.

2024 Champion Spotlight: Stoki  
Posted in Idle Champions.

    Stami Gackle was a fun-loving and reckless youth, but she fled her home when this carefree nature invited tragic loss into her life. She found shelter in Waterdeep with the monks of the Order of the Even-Handed, who gave her a new name and trained her in their ways. Now a capable adventurer, Stoki approaches problems with intense focus and careful consideration, having earned a reputation for being uncommonly stoic. However, Stoki's patient demeanor belies a warrior's ferocity, as she unleashes a rapid flurry of masterful blows to any foe who refuses to back down.
Stoki has received a significant rework along with a new niche focused on Champions who attack quickly. To support her kit, we are updating the Champion Search starting today as builds roll out to allow players to search by Champions based on their base attack cooldown. Let's talk about all things Stoki!

Abilities

Basic Attack

  • Flurry of Blows (melee) - Stoki leaps out and attacks random enemies with her fists.

Formation Abilities

  • Focused Strike - When Stoki attacks, she gains a Focus Point for each enemy she hits. She increases the damage of all Champions with a base attack cooldown of 4.0s or faster by 10% for each Focus Point she has, stacking multiplicatively. Focus Points cap at 100 and are reduced by 50% (rounded down) when changing areas.
  • Golden Palm - Enemies that have been attacked by Stoki at any point in the current area drop 100% more gold when killed for each Focus Point she has, stacking additively.
  • Building Focus - Stoki keeps track of the total Focus Point she has gained in the current adventure. If Stoki's Focus Points are capped for a given area, she still counts new ones towards this ability. Upon reaching certain milestones, the following effects activate:

    - 100 Focus Points: Encouragement - Champions adjacent to Stoki have their base attack cooldowns lowered by 0.5s.
    - 1000 Focus Points: Flurry of Blows - For every 1000 levels Stoki has, she attacks an additional target with each attack. She prefers to attack different targets but will attack the same target multiple times if she has already attacked everyone.
    - 5000 Focus Points: Leadership - Champions adjacent to Stoki have a 0.45% chance to reset their base attack cooldown after attacking for each Focus Point she currently has. Caps at 90%.
    - 12500 Focus Points: Overflow - When Stoki attacks an enemy that she already attacked, there is a 20% chance the enemy will be stunned for 3 seconds.
    - 25000 Focus Points: Explosion - If Stoki hits the same enemy two or more times with the same base attack, power radiates from the enemy, dealing 5 seconds worth of BUD damage to itself and all other nearby enemies. Triggers with each extra hit.
  • Frenzied Friends - Stoki additively increases the Focus Points cap of Focused Strike by 10 for each Champion in the formation whose base attack cooldown is 4.0s or lower.

Specializations

  • All Out Assault - Stoki tracks the number of attacks her allies have performed in the past 10 seconds and increases the effect of Focused Strike by 15% for each one, stacking multiplicatively.
  • Bend It Like Birdsong - Stoki counts the number of Champions in the formation with a DEX score of 16 or higher. For each such Champion, her base attack cooldown is decreased by 0.1 seconds, stacking additively, and the effect of Focused Strike is increased by 100%, stacking multiplicatively.
  • A Little Bit Faster Now - Stoki reduces the base attack cooldown of all Champions with a default base attack cooldown of 6.0 seconds or higher to 4.0 seconds so that they qualify for Frenzied Friends. Their damage is increased by 100% for every 0.1 seconds their base attack cooldown is reduced by this ability, stacking multiplicatively.

Ultimate Ability

  • Quivering Palm (melee) - Stoki leaps out and attacks five random enemies with extremely powerful palm thrusts. Over the next 10 seconds, all affected enemies take massive damage over time.

Idle Champions: Wintershield 7 
Posted in Idle Champions.

Wintershield sees a celebration of maps in the Realms, symbolizing our paths through the new year. As part of this year's tradition, the Champions have purchased a map from a Waterdeep street vendor. Then it started talking...

Wintershield 7 introduces Wyll, the Human Warlock from Baldur's Gate 3, and brings back two Heroes of Baldur's Gate-aligned Champions: Imoen the Human Rogue/Wizard, and the Viconia DeVir the Drow Cleric of Shar! Players have until Monday, January 1st, 2023 at 12 PM Pacific to complete their Wintershield 7 unlocks and objectives.

Wyll



    From a scion of a famed Baldurian house to a life of adventure on the road, Wyll’s life as the monster hunter called the Blade of Frontiers has made him one of the beating hearts of the Sword Coast. While he has done great deeds for the Coast’s people, the source of his power remains secret. The cambion Mizora drew Wyll into a warlock’s pact in a moment with many lives at stake, and cursed him with the duty of hunting her enemies. Mizora only asks Wyll to sacrifice devilish creatures to her, but a cambion’s ambitions are ever fickle, and Wyll wishes to escape the pact before its price grows cruel.

Wyll is a Support Champion ready to help whoever he can, so he supports all heroes from the most represented race, class, or affiliation in the formation. He is also cursed with a mind flayer's tadpole, providing further boosts with all of the Absolute Adversaries. This Human Warlock can be found in Seat 12 opposite Arkhan. You can find out more in the Wyll Champion Spotlight.

Idle Champion Spotlight: Shadowheart 
Posted in Idle Champions.

"Everyone has to suffer, it's a fact of life."

How far would you go to serve your deity? Shadowheart was willing to lose her memories and undertake a perilous mission, all in devotion to the Goddess of Darkness and Loss. But an Illithid tadpole has made her journey much more complicated. Fortunately she has a new group of Champions to help her on her quest!

I. Shadowheart



    A devoted cleric of Shar, Shadowheart agreed to have her memories wiped as part of a holy mission. Now its sole survivor, she must deliver a powerful relic back to her kin in order to win Shar's love and have her memories restored – but all the while, she is tormented by strange, painful magic that she struggles to understand.

Shadowheart is a Support and Healing Champion who joins her fellow Baldur's Gate 3 companions in fighting the transformation into a Mind Flayer. Once unlocked, you can find this Half-Elf Cleric in seat 6 opposite Asharra.

II. Shadowheart's Stats

Race: Half-Elf Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Gender: Female Pronouns: She/Her
Age: 48 Affiliation: Absolute Adversaries Class: Cleric

STR: 12 DEX: 14 CON: 14
INT: 10 WIS: 16 CHA: 10

Role: Support, Healing

Eligible for Patrons: Vajra

Seat: 6 (Asharra)


III. Shadowheart's Design

As a pragmatic cleric, Shadowheart focuses on straightforward buffs and excels at healing. Champions within two slots of her have their damage increased, and because she also carries a Mind Flayer tadpole in her brain, she can tap into its power to boost her damage buff even more. She keeps the two columns ahead of her healed all while she calls mystical lunar flame down to damage her enemies. But Shadowheart has a tricky skill she can use to create a copy of herself. This illusory duplicate hides next to the Champion with the highest Dexterity, and offers buffs and heals to nearby Champions similar to Shadowheart herself.

Shadowheart can choose one of three Specializations to give an extra boost to her already impressive buffs. One choice dramatically increases her buff to the Champions in front of her if her illusory duplicate stands by her side. Another selection boosts her support if her duplicate is far from her in the formation. The final option means Shadowheart stops attacking and focuses on helping others do damage, so she'll cast Guidance on the biggest damage dealer in your formation. Repeatedly. The mysterious relic that Shadowheart carries can also be called upon when things are looking dire. It flies into the air and sends out a pulse of power, striking back enemies and making the formation immune to damage for a moment!

This daughter of darkness may be guarded with her past, but she will use all of her cleric skills to support her fellow Champions on their mission!

IV. Shadowheart's Abilities

Basic Attack

Shadowheart has two normal attacks: her base attack (Sacred Flame) and one that is enabled by a specialization choice (Guidance).
  • Sacred Flame - Shadowheart raises her mace into the air and casts a spell, briefly engulfing a random enemy in mystical lunar flame, dealing 1 hit.
  • Guidance - Shadowheart increases the damage of your BUD-setting Champion's next attack by 200%, stacking multiplicatively up to 5 times.

Formation Abilities

  • Twilight Trickery - Shadowheart increases the damage of Champions within two slots of her by 100%.
  • Ceremorphosis - Your formation gains one Ceremorphosis stack due to the mind flayer tadpole in Shadowheart's brain. Shadowheart increases the effect of Twilight Trickery by 100% for each Ceremorphosis stack, stacking multiplicatively.
  • Light In The Dark - Shadowheart heals Champions in the two columns ahead of her for 10 every second.
  • Invoke Duplicity - Shadowheart creates an illusory duplicate of herself which hides in the formation and applies Twilight Trickery and Light in the Dark to Champions relative to itself with half the range as normal. The duplicate positions itself in the same formation slot as the Champion in the formation with the highest DEX score. Ties go to the Champion in the highest bench seat.

Specialization

  • Guidance - Shadowheart's base attack is replaced by Guidance. When she casts Guidance, she increases the damage of your BUD-setting Champion's next attack by 200%. Stacks multiplicatively up to 5 times.
  • Sister of Darkness - If Shadowheart's Illusory Duplicate is placed in the same slot as she is, increase the effect of Twilight Trickery by 400%.
  • Find Yourself - The effects of Twilight Trickery and Light In The Dark from Shadowheart's Illusory Duplicate are increased by 100% for each formation slot away from Shadowheart the duplicate is (following the shortest path), stacking multiplicatively.

Ultimate Ability

  • Absolute Sanctuary - Shadowheart raises her artefact, which flies into the air and sends out a circular pulse, dealing a massive hit to all enemies and knocking them back a short distance. In addition, your Champions are immune to all damage for 10 seconds or until you change areas, whichever is shorter.
