dthorn88 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I think the next will be a female unlocked via xp, since Woodlegs appears to be unlocked by freeing him. With that being said I have no clue what her ability could be. Watricia the Whale Whisperer? Doesn't have to investigate suspicious bubbles, merely passes ove. When she finds the Whales (including white whales) she can befriend and have up to two whale followers who will remain by shore and give her two raw fish per day. That probably needs mad balancing but an o Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/63237-new-shipwrecked-character-speculation-thread/#findComment-713693 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhelsarusBeel Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Considering we got the XP Unlockables so far i guess the next char will be Watricia since Woodlegs will probably take up a bit more time because of his unlock conditions. Now for perks i really can't say much however based around the ideas of both Walani and Warly i guess she also will have perks that help a more Nomadic lifestyle. Now here is the thing Walani basicly gives you a faster earlygame exploration bonus due to her board being faster then any other seavessel you can make this early in the game what greatly increases the amout of map you can explore before starting to settle down for Hurricane season. Warly on the other hand can basicly explore a lot longer because of both his CHefpouch and his Portable Crockpot. The pouch Helps him fighting the spoilage of his food and the crockpot allows him to easily make needed food on the go like Fishsticks should you get injured to heavily in combat. Woodlegs will probably have the Shiprelated boni since he's a pirate and all that. SO basicly to figure out what Watrician could have for a perk we need to see what else could benefit a nomadic playstyle. Basicly it can't be exploration because that's Walanis perk. It can't be foodrelated because that's Warlys perk. It also can't be research related because that's Wickerbottoms ability. Obviously i could also talk complete nonsense here and maybe Watricias perks are more related to basebuilding for SW but since all chars we got so far favour a nomadic playstyle i somewhat doubt that.

dthorn88 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Watricia the Songstress - Beats the heat - Hates fishing - Loves singing with whales Overheats slower than other characters in the summer. Loses sanity when killing Wobsters/Jellyfish or fishing (5 sanity for Wobs, jellyfish, and tropical fish and 20 for whales.) Can befriend whales, including white whales obviously (as stated in my first post.)

jj42883 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Watricia the Scubadiver Loves the water & can swim. Swimming would be really slow, so not really an option for exploration, but would mean no drowning if boat breaks. She can only use nautical-related weapons when swimming (speargun/harpoon/trident). Also, diving underwater could be used for harvesting mussles and/or wobsters and/or fish manually. Gains sanity when swimming, no sanity drain when wet (though all other wetness affects apply), constant sanity drain [edit] when on land [/edit] proportional to the distance away from the nearest shoreline.

Neu7ral Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I have hopes on Wallace or Wilbur, Watricia maybe? Wallace can look like an pirate, with his long beard and open mouth, who knows, he can be the one who imprision Woodlegs. Wilbur is an monkey, I guess he could be an good character. Watricia, I don't know really.

Asparagus Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Just a quick recap, we have: Wilson - Easy Meat Effigy Willow - Fire Goddess Wolfgang - Tanky the Tank Engine Wendy - (BAE) Mistress of the Adorable Darkness... and her Twin the AoE Beauty WX-78 - Gears of War Wickerbottom - The Science Witch: Harnesses the Magic of Science Woodie - A giant beaver that eats wood ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Wes - Destroyer of Worlds and Eater of Souls, Balloon animal expert William/Maxwell - Schizophrenic Magician way past insanity that he's sane Webber - Spoderkid, dus watever a spoder kid kan Wigfrid - Seriously into cosplay - War Machine Walani - 1990's Stereotype Surfer Warly - Finally!

Something that wouldn't be too deep into Shipwrecked mechanics that they wouldn't work with RoG... *looks at Walani* <__< BTW, WX is kinda at a disadvantage with all this water around him... should machines be immune to poison? Analysis: Spoiler So we now have Sanity Buffers in the form of Wendy (reduced sanity drain), Wigfrid (regains sanity and health from enemies), and Maxwell (passive sanity regen) Explorer characters like Willow (able to keep adventuring in the dark and can cook with her lighter(?)), Walani (surfboard for quick nautical exploration), and Warly (food optimization) Fighters like Wigfrid, Wolfgang, and WX-78 (upgraded) Specials like Wilson (fail-safe), Wickerbottom (early start), Webber (with spider population > pigs in SW), Wes (balloon animals vs snakes, spiders, and monkeys) Woodie... very special... is an all in one tool (axe, pickaxe, and shovel) and has passive armor when in werebeaver form and the world's greatest lumberjack with a sweet/creepy thing for a possibly possessed axe...
