Flagellant Guide: Darkest Dungeon

When creating a Flagellant character in Darkest Dungeon, there are a few key factors to consider. First and foremost, Constitution should be your highest score, followed closely by Strength. This will allow you to withstand the physical toll of being a Flagellant, as well as deal significant damage to your enemies.

But what drives someone to become a Flagellant? Are they a sinful man seeking redemption through suffering and guiding others on the path to righteousness? Or are they a zealot disgusted by the sins of others who will take up the flail and whip to punish those who have committed crimes and die for the cause if it means ridding the world of heretics? Whatever their motivation, Flagellants are typically connected to a religion or higher power that they serve.

Through this connection, they seek to become martyrs for their cause. For every enemy that seeks their death, their power grows stronger, and it is within the throes of death and madness that they can reach the zenith and inspire others to follow in their footsteps.

Flagellants have essentially weaponized their own physical and mental anguish as they seek martyrdom. Their strikes bleed out the blood of their foes while also bleeding out their own body to heal their allies. They are a zealous, dogmatic individual who harnesses power from their own suffering and anguish.

As the Flagellant's leader, there is power in the Blood for those with the fortitude to pay the price. With their unique abilities and strengths, they can lead your party to victory, even in the darkest of dungeons. Will you take up the flail and whip and become a Flagellant, seeking redemption or vengeance? Only time will tell.
