Elite Gurkha Warrior (Class)
Donut's class for the eleventh floor, and the one Carl calls before she picks it, which is why she announces she is taking it anyway on the grounds that she decides, not him. It is warrior-melee focused with a Perpetual Tank subclass, boosts her melee skills hard and pushes her Cockroach skill to level 15, and the part that actually sells it carries extra skills for every pet and hired mercenary she has. That upgrades Mongo's claws, dresses the whole crew in magical hats and kits the mounts out in blankets, turning a stolen assortment of vehicles and animals into something that looks deliberate. Mordecai raises it after killing Comeback Kid; Donut, told the Gurkhas were among the most formidable soldiers in Earth's history, replies that it sounds like a type of pickle and calls it the pickle class from then on.
Book 8 appearances
- Chapter 88 — Mordecai floats it after Carl vetoes Comeback Kid; the pet-and-mercenary skills and Mongo's claw upgrade decide it, and Donut takes it while insisting the choice is hers alone.
- Chapter 90 — The class pays out in kit: wide-brimmed Gurkha hats for the mercenaries and pets, black-and-gold mount blankets worth twenty per cent constitution and the Steady Charge skill, and kukri claw caps that sharpen Mongo's slicing. Its colour palette is also what sends Donut looking for a black, gold, magenta and white flower.
