It's been a while since I touched my new save file and I decided to walk into Anchordeep. When I saw Saleos I went "THAT'S HIM THAT'S THE GUY AVELOKA DRAWS"
Decides to give him a skull necklace this save file, might try to make him a disciple
So I've seen some posts of someone making a concept for a third playable character for cult of the lamb, and I may or may not have a stupid follow up idea on numerous level to that (BTW it was @derpyjackarts, great concept, love it.)
Anyways more under the cut, it'll be a lot.
More playable characters
Follows the system introduced in the Unholy Alliance update, except with up to 4 playable characters at a time. The possible playable characters are as following:
The Lamb - the default, the lil guy
The Goat - oh, he's a little fucked up actually
The Sheep - Steven Universe's fursona (i mean that lovingly)
The Ram - morally grey home made battering ram
Then, I propose unlockable characters, to add more variety:
Leshy - A former bishop, now indoctrinated into the proper cult; yours! || Unlocked after earning Leshy as a cult member, however while played as will not exist as an npc
Heket - the same as Leshy, albeit Heket instead
Kallamar - the same as the above, following suit
Shamura - you get the gist
Narinder - potentially a bit more than the rest, but mostly the same.
Potentially Aym and/or Baal? but I dunno
Additionally, a bit far fetched, but I also propose...
Different abilities/playstyles depending on characters
it's a bit of a far fetch, and would definitely be a stretch to ever be added to the game, or even modded in my eyes. However, I think it could be interesting to have differences in how the characters play both in combat and in the cult. Additionally it could give some benefit to having a former bishop being played by a player instead of an npc. I don't have exact ideas just yet but i may repost this with more info. Feel free to put ideas about this in the comments!

Summary:
The deposed God of Death finds himself at the mercy of his usurper and their teachings, heresies they'd written in the book of sermons he bound together in his own infant godhood.
Every time he found himself stopping right outside their tent, hoping to convene with the new god, his ego would get the better of him.
There was something so wretched and broken about this lamb, they who took his crown, his teachings, his vengeance in the redemption of his siblings' souls, his teachings, and all the love in his heart. Something wretched and broken, but something true to the time and the place they'd been given.
saw a funny. saw narinder bc brainrot... brainROT became brainWORM and now
goat 100% would tease him with the laser pointer at the worst times. and when they discover the light, immediately go to lamb to show it off... i do not have the ability to put in a wheezing lamb in the background
in every game I play, I suck at the fighting aspect because I cannot parry or dodge for the life of me so thank you cult of the lamb for having an unlimited death feature i will exploit this a lot
