Mothman ruined everything! Hooray! And in particular, he ruined Wyll.
See, the most interesting part of this playthrough has been that the main character has been Wyll all along. Wyll is the Sherlock Holmes Corruption Arc to Mothman's John Waston Murder Spree. This poor man no longer has a functional moral compass; he really likes Mothman, despite everything, leading to moments like this:

Protest all you like, pal, but your approval rating, like Shakira's hips, doesn't lie. (I made him a wizard even though he double-sold his soul because why not, no one could stop me.)

He's so far gone. Wyll babygirl I am so sorry, I don't even know how this happened, I somehow backed you into a universe where all the druids and tieflings died in Act 1 and you still stuck around, and now here we are. Broken.
Anyway, Mothman got a neat new antenna-helmet:

He wore it to fight the Netherbrain, which gets DIRTY TRICKS in Honour Mode. The final battle was a real nail-biter, like I needed to get up and have a few deep breathing exercises afterward. I need you to see this shit, which took place on the final round, my last turn before everything would have been over but not in the way Mothman wanted:
Everybody say, "Thank you, Murderdaddy."
Because I would not have won this fight without Power Word: Kill. Especially because Mothman entered the final battle with four summonable allies, which is honestly more than I expected but not enough to do effective crowd control. I kept Gale's severed hand in my inventory all game, and looked at it sorrowfully every time something especially unfortunate happened in the battle that he could have spared me from.
Anyway, here's how we thank Murderdaddy properly:

Shadowheart's objections are very funny to me because Mothman has been nothing if not upfront about his plans. Volo fled my camp because Mothman wouldn't stop being like, "I fucking love being a Baalspawn! I'm so good at murder! I'm gonna murder everyone! :D"

You all deserve this tbh
Then I immediately created Pizzazz, the cool half-orc monk with cotton-candy hair, because if I could slog my way through Dishonour Mode making terrible pig-headed choices, surely I can play Honour Mode for real making smart ones.
