 ==Types of Holoparasites==
-When summoned, the summoner can choose between several different types of spirits. Each have their own abilities, advantages, and drawbacks.
+Before summoning, the summoner can choose a guardian's stats (from A to F), a major ability, and minor abilities using 15 points in the guardian creator's menu. Increasing a stat costs 1 point per rank, while abilities have different costs generally scaling with their practicality.
+The guardian can be set to "Ranged" for 3 points, giving it a ranged projectile attack.
-===Standard===
+Attack: Increases the guardian's damage by 5 per rank, at A rank the guardian can smash walls. If the guardian is ranged, it will instead increase their projectile damage by 2.5 per rank.
-The classic <s>JoJoke</s> combat powerhouse. Deals devastating close combat attacks by rapidly hitting the target, and has high damage resist. Can smash through weak walls.
-The Standard Holoparasite also has access to some minor customization: The Holoparasite can select a Battle Cry that they will automatically shout over and over upon attacking. This is limited to six letters. For instance, putting in "ORA" for the battle cry will make you shout
+Defense: Decreases the guardian's damage transfer by 20% per rank down to 25%.
-'''"ORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORA!!"'''
+Speed: Increases the guardian's attack speed.
+Potential: Increases the power, length, or decreases the cooldown of the guardian's major ability.
-===Assassin===
+Range: Increases the guardian's range by 2 tiles per rank. At F rank the guardian cannot move on its own and will stay "behind" its summoner.
-Does medium damage and takes full damage, but can enter stealth, causing its next attack to do massive damage and ignore armor. However, it becomes briefly unable to recall after attacking from stealth.
+The Holoparasite can select a Battle Cry that they will automatically shout on attacking. This is limited to six letters. For instance, putting in "ORA" for the battle cry will make you shout '''"ORA!!"'''
-===Chaos===
-Ignites enemies on touch and causes them to hallucinate all nearby people as the parasite. Automatically extinguishes the user if they catch on fire.
+===Assassin - 4 points===
+The guardian can enter stealth by switching modes while manifested, causing it to become nearly invisible, and making its next attack to do massive damage and ignore armor. However, it becomes briefly unable to recall after attacking from stealth. Cooldown is decreased by the potential stat.
-===Charger===
-Moves extremely fast, does medium damage on attack, and can charge at targets, damaging the first target hit and forcing them to drop any items they are holding.
+===Explosive - 4 points===
+The guardian has a medium power attack that may explosively teleport targets. Can turn any object, including objects too large to pick up, into a bomb by alt-clicking them, dealing explosive damage to the next person to touch it. The object will return to normal after the trap is triggered or after a delay. The guardian can also manually activate traps to create a single tile heavy explosion on the trapped item's tile. Bomb lifespan is increased by potential stat.
-===Explosive===
-High damage resist and medium power attack that may explosively teleport targets. Can turn any object, including objects too large to pick up, into a bomb by alt-clicking them, dealing explosive damage to the next person to touch it. The object will return to normal after the trap is triggered or after a delay.
+===Frenzy - 3 points===
+The guardian passively increases its and its summoner's movement speed slightly, and it can charge at people by attacking them directly while they are within its range. It also gets an ability that allows it to teleport behind and immediately attack anyone within its range. Requires a C rank in the range stat or above.
-===Gravitokinetic===
-Normal speed, attack damage and damage resistances. Attacks will apply a field of heavy gravity on the target, slowing them and making them drop held items. Can alt-click ground to manually place heavy gravity fields. Recalling or moving over 10 tiles away from the fields will remove them.
+===Gravitokinetic - 3 Points===
+Attacks will apply a field of heavy gravity on the target, slowing them and making them drop held items. Can alt-click ground to manually place heavy gravity fields. Moving over twice the guardian's potential stat in tiles away from the fields will remove them.
-===Lightning===
-Attacks apply lightning chains to targets. Has a lightning chain to the user. Lightning chains shock everything near them, doing constant damage.
+===Healing - 4 points===
+The guardian has a second mode that causes its punches to heal whatever they hit by 1.5 times the guardian's potential stat.
-=== Protector ===
-Has two modes, and causes you to teleport to it when out of range.
-====Combat====
-It does and takes medium damage.
-====Protection====
-It does and takes almost no damage but moves slightly slower.
+===Limited Healing - 3 points===
+Functionally identical to healing except the guardian cannot heal its summoner.
-===Ranged===
-Has two modes, and can lay surveillance snares, which alert it when crossed.
-====Ranged====
-Fires a constant stream of weak, armor-ignoring projectiles.
-====Scout====
-Cannot attack, but can move through walls and is quite hard to see.
+===Hand - 5 points===
+The guardian can attack an item or person directly, teleporting anything on its tile towards it and stunning any living things on the tile for 1 second. Cooldown is decreased by potential.
+===Predator - 2 points===
+The guardian can track anyone down if it can find a fingerprint or blood sample. At C rank potential or above, the guardian can tell what Z-level the target is on if it's different, tracking is more proficient at higher potential as well.
+===Scout - 1 point===
+The guardian turns near invisible and incorporeal, capable of moving anywhere on the current Z-level, but it cannot interact with its environment.
+===Time Erasure - 6 points===
+The guardian can "skip" a period of time, making it and its summoner completely invisible and invincible but causing them to be pacified for the duration, while spawning illusionary copies of them at the spot it was activated. Potential increases duration of skipped time.
+===(Minor) Snares - 1 point===
+The guardian can create surveillance snares which alert it and its summoner when they are crossed.
+===(Minor) Teleport Pad - 3 points===
+The guardian can create a teleport pad and teleport items and people to it by alt+clicking them. Has a short delay between beginning a teleport and the teleport taking place.
-===Support===
-Has two modes, and can deploy a bluespace beacon and warp targets to it (including your host). Deploy a beacon by clicking its verb in your guardian tab. Then teleport people by alt-clicking them. Teleporting is not instant.
-====Combat====
-Medium power attacks and damage resistances.
-====Healer====
-Heals instead of damages, but has low damage resist and slow movement.
