The Father

by /u/bip_bip_cabbage

In a world filled with heroes and adventurers seeking fame or redemption, The Father is... just a father. A father who lost his only son.

Why are they in the Gungeon? What's the past they are trying to kill?

After the death of his only son, The Father seeks the Gun That Can Kill The Past in order to go back when his son was alive. Only through the Gungeon can he discover why his beloved son passed away and prevent it from happening again.

Each use gives the player a different stat bonus at the cost of a permanent heart. [1st: accuracy; 2nd: speed; 3rd: damage]

"In struggling times, even the most hardened people have their weak moments. Make note, that these moments make the individual, and not their decisions."

PASSIVE

Final Note

"Speechless"

Causes the last bullet in the magazine to deal massive damage.

"It’s amazing how paper, ink, and a few words can cause a revolution, let alone break down a strong man."

PASSIVE

Frayed Rope

"If At First You Don't Succeed..."

Prevents the player from dying with a full heart left; also prevents fall damage. Increases curse by two.

"Rope is such a versatile tool. It can help people climb mountains, hoist masts, pulley heavy objects, and the like."
