Continuing my Quest to shove Nucleons in other franchises, Nuclear Throne!
I can really imagine them fitting here tbh, Nuclear throne has a lot of, well, Nuclear sh!t and glowy bits
Anyways, the idea with the Acolyte is that they constantly have a aura around them dealing damage to enemies, (functioning like a long-arms range gamma guts) but all of their ammo reserves are halved. (pushing the player into getting up close and personal with the aura)
Their TB mutation causes enemies killed by the aura to drop more rads.
Their two Ultra mutations are;
Piety - Doubles the size of their aura field, and doubles its damage.
Heresy - All projectiles fired by the player gain a small damage dealing aura, The player loses the melee-aura, and ammo reserves return to normal.
They come from a cult that worships radiation and the Nuclear Throne and they want to find out for themselves if its real or not.
As this is Nuclear throne, of course they'd have a B skin, based on the Necromancer/Technomancer enemies in Labs:
