Have you ever wanted to whoop some demons and goblins with the Barcelona shopkeeper Weng Choi? Well this mod allows you to do just that. Fitted with his own sounds and animations, Weng Choi rolls up the sleeves to take on the dark world of Lionheart as the Spirit Bearer.
The mod also comes with a playable female counterpart, Mei. She also has her own animations and sounds, but is meant to function similarly to Weng.

DISCLAIMER: Thank you for downloading! This is fan-made LLOTC mod, purely for fun and curiosity. All original content and art belongs to Reflexive Entertainment and Black Isle Studios. Please note that this mod is designed for players who have already experienced the game in its original form.
OVERVIEW OF CHANGES:
-Male Character Model changed to a playable version of Weng Choi. He is slightly bigger than the NPC version because he's not inside shopkeeping all day.
-Female Character Model changed to Mei. She functions similarly to Weng Choi and is meant to be a playable female counterpart.
-Equipment is hidden to maintain character appearances. Weng and Mei are able to channel the strength of their equipment directly into hand combat. Their techniques will vary depending on the type of weapon chosen.
-Custom animations and sounds for attacks/spellcasts/reacts/deaths.
-Bow and Crossbow inventory item files modified to properly launch projectiles with the 3D character models.
- Weng Choi and Mei are pre-existing characters with set stats, but the player can also make custom characters that maintain the cosmetic appearance of Weng Choi and Mei.
