Meet the Pilots: Shun

Hello Pilots,

We're now well and truly in release month and it's less than 30 days until we launch! What better time to say hello to our first Stinger Pilot - Shun!

"Time's ticking. Make every second count."

Pilot Bio

Name: Shun

Place of Birth: Earth's largest metropolis, Shin-Tokyo

Bio: Shun was born into one of the richest families in Shin-Tokyo. His parents run a megacorp in the city. As a result, he had a relatively easy and carefree life. He spent most of his time gaming -- because of his family’s status, he never felt the drive to do anything more meaningful with his life.

That all changed when he turned 18, when it was discovered he had a rate, incurable heart disease. This diagnosis sent him into a depressive state, and he would rarely leave his hospital room.
He is granted a second chance by a medical breakthrough: the Medusa. The Medusa uses electrical impulses from jellyfish organs to deliver the right biological signatures to the heart.

The Shocking Snoozer

  • Mitochondria - When your turn begins, Shock a random invaders
  • Venom - At the end of the turn, for each entity with Shock, remove Shock and strike them
  • Spirit Arcs - When you strike a Shocked invader, 50% chance of giving Shock to a random invader.

You might find Shun's artifacts quite shocking!

Having unique artifacts and cards for each pilot really helps build diversity during your runs. Shun has some interesting cards like Electrokinesis which allows him to move an entity to any tile, and if that entity was Shocked, it strikes itself and all adjacent tiles.

That's all for Shun just now, but you can discover more of his unique cards as you play and we'll be back with another Pilot feature soon!

Happy Hunting!
