Iris, The Haunted One - DLC Out Now!

Infiltrate the city of Dawn's Point with an exciting new character - Iris, The Haunted One!
Iris possesses the ability to summon spirits from beyond her mortal plane. These spirits can block attacks from opponents, or possess her and your fellow party members to augment their abilities. Alongside her unique Talent and Passive pool, this adds a wildly new flavour of gameplay to Banners of Ruin!
This DLC includes several new scenarios, where you'll be acquiring new spirits, facing new opponents, and wrestling with many decisions over the course of your campaign.
There are six spirits for Iris to acquire throughout the game, accessible from her Summoning Wheel in combat. Spirits can be spawned to their own position slot, Untethered, or in the same position as a party member, Possessing them. Each mode offers different effects for each spirit, so managing their position in combat next to your characters will be of vital importance!
Because of the dual nature of these Spirits, Iris can work alone, using her Spirits to defend her, or alongside other characters, bolstering the entire party. However, should she fall, your run will be over!
What's included in the DLC?

A new unique Hero Character!
15 Talents & 9 Passives for Iris!
5 New Cards! (Skills + Weapons)
5 New Enemies, with challenging new mechanics!
10 New Scenarios!

This unique hero has a set of tailored abilities; from Talents only she can access, to specialised equipment. Battle through the streets, encountering many new scenarios and enemies, including a new named mini boss!
Moonstone must be chosen as your starter character, but unique to her playstyle, you will have the option to immediately start your campaign with up to two more party members.
In combination with her Lute, Moonstone's unique hero ability allows her to apply temporary passives to all of her allies! New passives are made available every time Moonstone uses her ability. Those passives can then be applied by playing her Lute, and last until the next time Lute is drawn.
Moonstone is the ideal support character, with her abilities and talents built to aid and augment her team, but make sure you keep this hero alive, or your run will be over!
Moonstone has a unique hunter on her tail; the lone wolf, Mordis. This new opponent has a gamechanging set of tricks up his sleeve that should prove challenging to even the most veteran players.

This unique hero has a set of tailored abilities; from Talents only he can access, to specialised equipment and upgrades! Upgrade his armour and weapons as you battle through the streets, encountering new scenarios and enemies! Some of these will only appear when playing with the Powdermaster, whereas others are added as global content, for any future playthroughs.
The Powdermaster has a unique hero ability; mixing powder cards. When you have powder cards in your hand (Red, Pink, Yellow or Black), you can discard them to gain stacks of 'Boom' - a new status effect specific to the Powdermaster! Pro tip: you'll gain more Boom for discarding powders of more than one colour.
His Grenade deals stacks of Boom as damage - racking up some crazy numbers - and many of his Talents are focused on augmenting it!
What's included in the DLC?

A new unique Hero Character!
10 Talents & 8 Passives for The Powdermaster!
6 New Cards! (Skills + Weapons)
3 New Enemies, and many new enemy party variations!
7 New Scenarios!
And last but not least, we've added a couple of new enemies and additional party variants as a free update to the base game! You will now see some Angry Peasants and Gang Bruiser Bears in the first street, watch out!
Available Below! 10% launch discount, and 50% off the base game!
