What Tezcatara says
The first, second and fifth visit as a character each have their own exchange. Every other visit draws one of the repeating lines: the second-visit line or an Any climber line.
Oh, a visitor! Do come in, dear!
What can Tezcatara do for you?
Welcome back, sweetie. Let me burn away your flaws.
Do come in, dear! What can Tezcatara do for you today?
You burn so pretty! Come in, come in!
Such a strong boy you are! Come and eat something.
Can’t slaughter on an empty stomach!
Ohh, Architect still alive? Kill him quickly would you?
I’ll be waiting right here!
Other visits: one of the repeating lines at random, the second-visit line above or an line.
Come closer, quiet one. I can’t see well...
...
You can trust me.
Such a nasty sickness you have. Let’s take care of you.
I’ve met your sisters, you know? Such lovely girls they are.
...
Oh dear... you haven’t been fighting have you?

<greetings beep>
Not here to annoy me? What an unusual little construct...
Now how silly would it be if he were unmade by one of his own?
Are you sure you want to be fixed up?
<inquisitive beep>
Well, if you’re really certain.
Other visits: the second-visit line above, every time: Tezcatara keeps the Any climber lines from the Defect.
Now what’s a skeleton doing inside these walls?
My aim is simple. Vengeance for my family.
I’ll reach the top and make him pay.
Wonderful!
Come in, come in! Let’s make your flames burn brighter.
Those flames around you remind me of something forbidden.
What do you know?
I know who wrote that book.

Oh my, what an exotic visitor! Who might you be, sweetie?
I’m no sweetie! Address me with respect, giant... thing-person!
Where are my manners?
Tezcatara cackles with delight.
You and your friends are back again?
I’ve made treats for you!
Welcome back regal boy! Looks like you’re doing great out there.
Yes of course! Just some minor setbacks at the upper levels... like dying.
We all need to learn from our mistakes.

How the visit works
Her seat
Meeting her
Arrival heals all missing HP, 80% at Ascension 2.- She is warm and motherly, feeds every visitor and cackles at the Regent.
She does not trust the Defect: the generic friendly greetings are withheld from it and it only ever hears its own guarded lines.
The offer
First: Very Hot Cocoa or Yummy Cookie, with Nutritious Soup added only while a basic Strike is still in your deck.- Second: one of Biiig Hug, Storybook and Toasty Mittens.
- Third: one of Golden Compass, Pumpkin Candle, Toy Box and Seal of Gold.
Which relic to take from Tezcatara
First slot
Very Hot Cocoa gives 4 extra Energy at the start of every combat, a first-turn burst that wins short fights outright.
Yummy Cookie is four upgrades of your choice.
Nutritious Soup enchants all your Strikes with Tezcatara's Ember: they cost 0, deal 3 more damage and become Eternal, so a deck that kept its Strikes gets free 9-damage cards it can never remove.
Second slot
Storybook adds Brightest Flame, a 0-cost card for 2 Energy and two cards at the price of 1 Max HP per play, which is excellent.
Toasty Mittens exhausts the top card of your draw pile each turn for 1 Strength, strong in attack decks that do not mind losing cards.
Biiig Hug removes four cards but drops a Soot, an unplayable status, into your draw pile at every shuffle. Good for a deck that rarely shuffles.
Third slot
Pumpkin Candle is 1 Energy a turn for five combats and can be relit at rest sites.
Golden Compass replaces the Act 2 map with one fixed path of sixteen rooms: two treasures, four rest sites, a shop and two elites, no choices.
Seal of Gold buys 1 Energy a turn for 5 gold, cheap for any deck with income.
Toy Box is four Wax relics that melt one by one every three combats, a short boost.
Worth knowing
In co-op each player gets their own copy of Tezcatara: the slots are rolled separately for every player, whether Nutritious Soup can appear depends on that player's own deck, and each player takes one relic.
