This is some stuff about Hellwalkers.

Features

Demonic Abilities

• I'm fairly certain this explicitly marks you as having demon blood, but haven't bothered to check.

Life Save

• {{shifting scarlet}Your veins pulse with shifting scarlet energy.}
• on death get fullhealed and teleported somewhere instead, like Sea's Blessing or a no concept nav Phoenix Rebirth
• I've only seen this a couple times and have no idea what decides if it triggers

Affinity scaling

• stuff scales in some way off your qlippotic/sephirotic/chaos/order affinity
• how much SD you can have stolen from stuff
• passive bonuses from killing eligible things

Henosis damage to things with Supernal Durability

• is a silly combination of qlippotic/sephirotic/chaos/order/goetia that {{shifting scarlet}existentially erases} or {{shimmering}pulses}
• if whatever it is has all its SD drained out then you go back to doing boring damage
• requires the attack to be unarmed or using an eligible weapon
  • Dyad is amazing. Heals onhit when hitting something that has SD or would charge passive stuff on death, and does the damage of a greataxe with double the armor pen and half the activity cost.
  • the lzarawn-runed iron greataxe that can load on Ardlond in Shadow Tower is mediocre.
  • I've heard that the special ono made by the Aligned form Hell and Heaven is really good.
  • Unarmed attacks including fancy limbs other than arms count, and don't care if you're wearing something over that limb. (though unarmed scaling weapons like claws don't count)

Stealing Supernal Durability

• Punching something that has Supernal Durability with an eligible attack will debuff theirs and temporarily raise yours.
  • This can stack across hitting different things.
• You can only hold so much stolen SD, after which you'll just have to settle for doing henosis damage.
  • How much scales with your affinities
• Occasionally leaves unexpectedly soon
• Might be extended by punching things that have SD

Passive Bonuses

• Strength / Constitution / Willpower / Perception / Speed
• buffs go up upon killing something eligible while not at full charge
• buffs go down upon killing unrelated things
  • I'm fairly certain this is happens when the contributing thing gets kicked out of your kill log, but that's not feasibly provable.

Buffs

    You are a competent second-degree possessor of supernal durability (37),
though you appear to be effectively functioning at an amazing level (252).

    Your speed is very fast (68).

Guesses

Regarding passive buff charging (and why it's based on kill log tracking)

• Killing stuff that's probably already in your kill log tends to leave the buffs intact, no matter how not-demons the things are.
  • I've gone days of just killing stuff in an inefficiently small rotation without losing buffs
• Killing random stuff you haven't killed in a while tends to suck your bonuses dry real fast if they aren't in turn eligible (and sometimes even if they area)
  • If I intentionally kill a big pile of random stuff to kill my clear log, I end up with a couple false starts having to re-get buffs before they stop fizzling out the moment I start xping

Regarding stealing SD

• How much this maxes out at varies based on some things other than your affinities
  • I'm fairly sure it's related to what you're stealing from.
• I suspect in addition to having presumed time-based timeout, there are kill log related shenanigans
  • I've had the SD buff time out nonsensically fast after stealing it.
  • Usually immediately after killing something (e.g. sucked max I could hold out of a dakshin, killed it, killed the buff 15k xp dakshin without leeching any from it, immediately lost SD stolen 4 rounds prior.)
  • Might just be bugged, might have a randomly random timeout timer.

Regarding getting buffs from killing something

• some stuff might have more 'value' than other stuff
  • I tend to cap out at 64 speed off the easy ygelyeku/oni/whatever, but if I can take out the balrog the buffs usually tick up a bit higher, and for one inexplicable day was up to 77 resting speed with no external buffs
