Can someone make a mod that would allow me to play as Shovel? I mean chose Shovel in character creation and level him/her (not sure if Shovel even has a sex) up like a normal character. I can see Shovel being a bad ass monk. Or can you imagine a raging Shovel! Lol. That would be awesome. Probably give him/her/it some sort of default "weapon" item in each hand to represent the claws. I can't really see Shovel using "big people" weapons so giving him/her/it "claw" items so they can be enchanted would be nice. Other "big people" items like armor would be questionable too but rings and amulets would certainly be a thing. Monks and spellcasters don't wear a lot of armor so maybe lean toward those classes when playing Shovel? Give him/her/it some mage armor "scales" for free since armor would be out. I'd just like to be able to level him/her/it up and gain better stats and HPs, while allowing for use of rings, necklaces, potions, grenades, scrolls, etc.
I really like the idea of a monk and hitting level 6 to grab the necrotic aura for attacks.
