Beelzebub

Beelzebub, Lord of Gluttony

Devour the bestiary. A server-side V Rising mod where every kill can teach you one of the enemy's abilities, and a rare jackpot teaches you its entire kit at once. Slot what you collect on your action bar, bind the rest to extra hotkeys, and take the forms of the bosses you defeat.

> Status: pre-1.0 ALPHA (v0.137.7). Test servers only. > Install it only on a test or dev server, a server you reset regularly, or one you don't mind resetting if something > goes wrong.

How it works

1. Kill anything. Each kill has a chance (default 5%) to capture one of the unit's abilities.
2. Hit the jackpot. A rare Devour roll (default about 0.25%) teaches the unit's whole eligible kit in one kill.
3. Never stay unlucky for long. Bad-luck protection raises your odds on every dry kill and resets on a drop.
4. Use what you collect. Put captures on your spell slots, per weapon or for every weapon, or bind extras to

named hotkeys.

1. Become the boss. Some bosses can also unlock their transformation, a separate prize with its own odds.
2. Complete the bestiary. Track what you have per unit and hunt what is missing.

Requirements

• A V Rising dedicated server. Beelzebub runs on the server only; it does not work in a Host & Play game.
• BepInExPack V Rising
• VampireCommandFramework
• Recommended for players: Raphael, a client-side companion (formerly BloodCraftHub) that adds on-screen ability

buttons, cooldowns and a collection book. It is still in development. Without it, everything works through chat commands and the six vanilla slots.

Installation

Install with r2modman or the Thunderstore Mod Manager, or copy Beelzebub.dll into <VRisingDedicatedServer>\BepInEx\plugins\. Stop the server before replacing the DLL; it is locked while the server runs.

Features

Collection

• Separate capture and Devour odds for regular enemies, V Bloods and shard bosses, each with bad-luck protection.
• A default filter removes filler (idle, lifecycle and plain melee abilities), so captures stay useful.
• .beelz bestiary shows how many of each unit's abilities you hold and what is left.
• .beelz top ranks the server by collection, .beelz odds shows your current chances, and finishing the catalog

is announced to the server.

Your action bar

• Put any capture on one of your six spell slots, for every weapon or for one weapon type. Changes apply at once.
• Mix captures with your own spells. Picking a vanilla spell for a slot in the spellbook hands that slot back to you.
• Go past six: bind captures to named hotkeys and fire them with .beelz cast <name>. Cooldowns still apply.
• Give each shapeshift form (Wolf, Bear, Rat, Spider, Toad, Werewolf, Gargoyle) its own loadout with

.beelz form-grant. The form holds while you cast.

• Saddle abilities go on R, C and T while you ride.
• One command resets a stuck bar: .beelz resetbar CONFIRM clears every Beelzebub change and checks the result.

Your captures are kept.

Transformations

• Dracula and Morgana turn you into their real in-game forms, with their models, rigs and abilities.
• Test forms: Werewolf (Werewolf Chieftain or the common werewolf), Golem (Terah the Geomancer) and Gargoyle

(the Tailor).

• Every form has two or more ability sets you switch with .beelz phase, or automatically by health.
• Bosses have more abilities than you have slots, so you choose: .beelz tform <unit> set <phase> <slot> <index>

builds your own kit for each phase.

• Capturing abilities, devouring a kit and unlocking a form are three separate rolls. A form is never a free extra.

Summons

• Captured summon abilities raise allies that fight for you, transformed or not. They scale with your level and have

caps, leashing and clean despawns.

• .beelz summon calls a transformed boss's signature adds (the Toad King's frogs, the Werewolf Chieftain's wolves).
• .beelz summons stash/restore/clear/status manages them. A server setting decides whether they wait or follow

when you mount up.
