-------------------------------

V0.7.03 (March 28, 2025)

New game features

- When the player or companions are feral and in combat, any equipment-given combat abilities are suppressed

-- Equipment penalties and bonuses still remain in effect, and equipment can currently be added or removed (though this may change in the future)

- Started work on Deer Oh Dear quest

-- This quest can be found in Camp Kestrel when Vyndaii is in the party. Journey into the Ashes and The Seeker's Sorrow must also be completed

-- The recommended minimum level for this quest is level 8

-- Only the final stage is incomplete, talking to Sephora the second time

- Added battle modifier that forces all party members to fight who have enough health / low enough lust, including peaceful ferals

New game content (quests/writing/art/etc):

- Added new music for the dragon's lair map in The Horny Dragons Hoard quest. Music is by BecciCP.

- Added two new aggressive feral forms, the Bear Cavelurker and Boar Forest Rootdigger. Art is by Icy.

- Added new Willow Hawkwing facial expressions. Art is by Luxianne.

- Added rogue fawn artwork for upcoming Deer Oh Dear quest. Art is by GlobbinArts.

Miscellaneous:

- Added alternate unlock condition for item-unlockable barriers for certains quests/maps

-- For example, The Horny Dragon's Hoard will now automatically removed all boulder obstacles once the quest is completed, regardless of how many powder charges were in the party's inventory upon quest completion

-- This allows for post-quest inventory cleanup to not permanently restrict access to parts of certain maps

- Adjusted some resouce nodes in forests and rocky terrain to provide more diverse alchemy ingredients

- Added in a tutorial message that launches when the party has a feral party member

- Companions now cannot be spoken to when the player is feral, even if that companion is not feral

- Brutas Grindaxe now has the Transformation Resistant trait

- Frog Boglurker Tongue Snap is now a physical ranged attack, so damage now scales with Marksmanship instead of strength

- Removed the gold and item reward from helping Dulaxus

- The Frog Boglurker now has the Fragile trait

Bugfixes:

- Bugfix for transforming party members using wrong sex of base form

- Fixed a handful of bad text file encodings resulting in square boxes for unsupported utf-8 characters

- Fix for statistics panel in the rare case of showing max health or lust values below the minimum of 10

-- Note that the number breakdown will not longer sum up correctly

- The dragon gate should no longer be raised again once The Horny Dragon's Hoard is completed

-- A migration script should re-add the missing state that re-opens the doors for players who already completed this quest

- Eugenia and her marionette doll forms are now transformation resistant
