These are both men who have done wrong, and if both survive to see the Heart of Darkness defeated, the game says they found their redemption in the fight against ultimate quest. Reynauld and Dismas, the names of the highwayman and crusader who are the only ones with always the same name when you start the game, carry the name of an infamous crusader and the repentant thief who died beside Christ on the cross. This is contrast with the Highwayman who does more direct harm to a mother and child in his backstory. The Crimson Call of the Crusade can’t leave him even if he has left it, and either to save them from himself (some of his lines indicated he had an abusive father, so I’m inclined to think he didn’t want bring whatever ugliness war had touched him with to spare his family). He is a man who has tied himself to the war against darkness, so much so that he can’t go back to who he was before. I can believe such a force is one of the few capable of killing the Heart of Darkness with a single blow with the right buff buildups.Ĭontrast the Crusader who is a figure who is tied to the cause as much as a sword of the light. Whether or not he’s with the rest of the four man teams assaulting the dungeon or undertaking the task alone, he keeps going. His style of kingship, because he was a king before joining the war against the Darkest Dungeon, seems to imply this.Ī kingdom grieves with his departure, but he goes on without acknowledgement or regret, more a force of nature than a man. The Leper is a solitary figure, a pure spirit that sustains a ravaged body, and he aids the world by being the bulwark and executioner that the world breaks up and is cut down by. The Leper is obviously based on Kingdom of Heaven’s interpretation of King Baldwin of Jerusalem. I’ve talked a bit about Reynauld that you can read about here. Leper is a name given to those who suffer from Leprosy, also known as Hansen's Disease, a infectional disease caused by the Myctobacterium leprae which the Leper himself appears to suffer from.Anonymous asked: Thoughts on the Crusader and Leper of Darkest Dungeon?.All Companions: (50% chance) Reduce Stress by 20, (50% chance) Reduce Stress by 15.Self Only: Reduce Stress by 20, +10 ACC.
