    Ok so this is my first mod ever. I decided to base it on the Eight Drunken Immortals martial arts style.
    This being my first mod, things are progressing quite slowly especially because I still have no idea what some things are supposed to do.

    The ideas are all in my head for the 8 forms. They should mostly be short-medium duration stances based on actual moves used in this style or mythology/movies/anime and other works of art; and stat buffs. These stances will only work while under the Drunk buff (Had to make separate buff for this since its impossible to work with the Fuelled by Booze buff).

    This is the state the mod is in right now:

    SKILLS

    Drunken Master (Actually the startup skill)

    -Drinking booze triggers a "drunk" state that improves abilities
    -The more you drink the harder it is for enemies to beat the drunkeness out of you and the more powerful you get
    -So far 4 states; final state should be uncontrollable rampage
    -It took me quite some time to work out how to make multiple states but I'd like to do some sort of sobering up where instead of the buff disappearing completly it will revert to the lower drunk level OR I will introduce negative bonuses on higher ranks of drunkeness so ideally people will want to stay at Drunk level or lower for optimal play.

    Tipsy - 5:dodge: 3:armor_asorb: 3:block: 1:resist_crushing:; 60 duration; able to take 3 attacks
    Slightly drunk - 10:dodge: 6:armor_asorb: 6:block: 2:resist_crushing:; 60 duration; able to take 6 attacks
    Drunk - 15:dodge: 9:armor_asorb: 9:block: 3:resist_crushing: ; 60 duration; able to take 9 attacks
    Smashed - 20:dodge: 12:armor_asorb: 12:block: 4:resist_crushing: ; 60 duration; able to take 12 attacks

    First form (Tier 0)
    -Pretend to lower your guard, inviting opponent to attack you resulting in a counterattack.
    -Passively grants 1:burliness:
    -short duration stance that requires the drunk buff and grants x:dodge:, -x:armor_asorb: and -x:block:
    -dodging an attack results in a counter attack dealing x:dmg_crushing: to the enemy whose attack you dodged

    This is what I've got so far. I'll try not making the attacks and buffs too overpowered. Any ideas on scaling would be appreciated.

    Anyway I will upload the mod and if you have some time to spare feel free to tell me whether you like it or what should I improve to make you like it. Mainly interested in balancing stuff out.

    (Names are just placeholders. Will be named after the 8 Immortals.)
