Bruja, an ancient blood witch with a past shrouded in the fog of history, is an expert at balancing divine grace and retribution. Her goals and motivations are unclear, but her power is too great not to invite her to the party.
The DLC contains:
- 106 new cards (including 14 unlockable ones)
- 8 new class-specific artifacts
- 5 new outfits
- 20 unlockable voice lines
- 9 unlockable emotes
- New class-specific location: The Altair

Bruja is also available to everyone as a companion in the single-player, regardless of DLC ownership. And the DLC itself is, of course, part of the Supporter Pack.
New Mechanic: Blood Price
Bruja mastered the art of blood magic though lost in times immemorable. This allows her to pay for skills with her own health. And heal using life essence of blood. When abused this dark art can create Black Bile, which can be both a boon or a curse depending on build.
One more important thing to note: Bruja can never die by paying the blood price for cards. This means she will stay at 1 health point, but all blood price cards will still be playable.
New Mechanic: Reckoning and Grace
She is too old to balance her power on only one leg, though. When our heroes' ancestors still clubbed each other with stone tools she was searching out primal dark gods. Long forgotten these gods cling to her for energy and she extorts power from them in return. It's a delicate balancing act: each favor increases Reckoning which will deal as much damage to Bruja at the end of the turn. She knows how to delay, deflect, and manipulate her dark friends and gain their Grace. When Grace is active, Reckoning doesn't activate that turn.
... and ways to tie it all that together!
And of course all these and old mechanics interact with each other in various ways. Probably more than we thought of :archduck: Looking forward to your feedback!
Oh and Marcin also made a nice gif with her outfits and I will post here because I don't have heart to tell him it didn't made it into the post :archduck:
