Their basic design is fairly simple, just a ghoulish humanoid with very large, dark eyes and a beaky nose, but it's by far my favorite thing in the game. Here we have our first example of what seems to be the more "dominant" vampiric race those that evolved from mosquitoes. Better because it's also a vampire and an aristocrat. It doesn't look very much like a tick actually does, no, which is a tad disappointing to me as a life long tick fan, but sometimes it's the thought that counts, and the thought here is that a big tick ate somebody's head and started steering their body around like an even better head crab. The Supplicant here is one of the weakest and most common of these vampires, even encountered well outside the campaign's Courtyard dungeon as an enemy in other outdoor areas of the game, and represents an extremely mutated tick. This "Crimson Court" is situated across town over what was once all wetlands, and it is the domain of a family of aristocratic vampires.who also happen to be hybridized with various bloodsucking arthropods.

Perhaps a big shorter and sweeter a review, but what The Crimson Court adds is cool enough that I feel like it could have sustained an entire game of its own, and I'm glad that, as content added so mcuh later to the main game, I had an excuse to spin it off like this and really take my time to talk about it.

When I reviewed my favorite Darkest Dungeon enemies weeks ago, I mentioned that its 2016 DLC content would be enough to warrant a review of its own. Darkest Dungeon Monsters: The Crimson Court!
