Sire Denathrius

Identity: A Quest-focused hero who chooses an opening objective, converts its requirement into a unique reward, and can add another Quest through his Buddy.

Profile

  • Nickname: Denathrius
  • Trait: The passive Hero Power “Whodunit?” offers a choice between two Quests at the start of the game. His exclusive Buddy, “Shady Aristocrat,” is a Tier 4 4/4 that Discovers a Quest when sold; completing it grants an 8-Gold Coin Pouch, or 16 Gold from the Golden version.

Playstyle

  1. Early game: Compare completion speed, disruption to your normal curve, and reward quality when choosing the opening Quest. Favor an objective that progresses naturally through purchases, plays, and sells instead of selecting only for maximum upside.
  2. Key turns: Sequence actions around the Quest requirement without giving up the entire board for one extra step of progress. As completion approaches, plan how the reward will translate into leveling, a composition pivot, or a search for key pieces.
  3. Mid to late game: Sell Shady Aristocrat on a turn when the new Quest fits actions your board already wants to take. Hold the Coin Pouch until the burst of Gold can be spent efficiently, with enough shop and hand space to complete the planned turn.

Strengths

  • The opening Quest adds a separate scaling axis and can establish a clear direction early when the reward matches the lobby.
  • Shady Aristocrat adds another Quest and a concentrated 8- or 16-Gold payoff, enabling powerful leveling and shopping turns.

Weaknesses

  • Both requirements and rewards vary. A slow Quest or one that conflicts with the current board can suppress tempo for several turns.
  • Chasing progress too aggressively costs board strength and Health, while the Buddy's payoff still requires completing another objective.
