From 2dfa70ea4886ccf4a5a53ded2b115fbfc8471fc9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NiklasNeighbor <121561587+NiklasNeighbor@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 21 Jan 2026 22:34:28 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Adds a bloodwriting ability to the revenant, that functions like an innate red crayon (#5116) ## About The Pull Request Adds a free ability to the revenant, which allows them to write messages and draw runes as if they had a crayon. clicking the ability button opens the crayon menu, and clicking around allows the revenant to draw what was selected ## Why It's Good For The Game Encourages roleplay with revenants and gives them something to do if they can't get their hands on enough corpses ## Proof Of Testing
