Myst

• Adds Myst, a high utility survivor that uses a unique resource called 'Magic Power' to use a wide range of otherworldly abilities, and another resource called 'Limit' to unleash powerful super-moves.
• Magic Power only starts to regenerate when fully depleted, where it cannot be used again until filled. - This recharge time can be sped up with items and effects that reduce cooldown time.
• Limit generates very slowly as you block attacks and deal damage, and once you have enough, you can unleash extremely powerful Limit Breaks, but be aware that Limit is limited.

To Do

• Fix bugs, I'm sure I've missed some

[ [IMPORTANT NOTE:] It should noted that none of this needs to be touched at all if it seems too complex or clunky, Myst starts with everything he needs to complete a run, and this is just a side-system that can be used to create custom builds or otherwise just play around, so if you don't want to use this system, just don't, and continue to enjoy Mysts base kit. ]

Throughout each run, Myst can use an assortment of methods to create new Magicites through "Synthesis", which he can then equip into his Vorpal Sword in order gain access to new Spells, Finishers, and Limits.
This can be done by first opening the Character Sheet (bound to "4" by default, but can be rebound in the config) and then selecting one of the three buttons under Synthesis, which are as follows:

Latent Magicite: - Myst loses 3 "Latent Magicites" to gain a random new Magicite (Latent Magicites are obtained through Desynthesis, which will be explained shortly).
Equipment: - Removes Mysts current equipment to gain a random new Magicite.
Common Item: - Removes 2 random common items (prioritising scrap) to gain a random new Magicite from the rare pool.

Additionally, the 4 synthesis buttons underneath the top 3 can be used to specify the type of Magicite received, but cost additional Latent Magicites, with no alternative option for cost.

New Magicites then need to be equipped into the Vorpal Sword, which can be done by clicking and dragging it into one of the available slots, Myst only has access to the Spells Limits and Finishers that are currently equipped, so be mindful what you remove, and what you replace.
The slots in the Vorpal Swords are "Linked" into pairs, if a "Support" Magicite is in one slot, its effect will be applied to the ability of the magicite in the paired Slot (Assuming they are compatible)

Magicites in the inventory will have a Latent Magicite icon next to them, clicking on this icon will destroy the Magicite permanently, and grant you up to 8 "Latent Magicites" based on the Magicites level (Max level grants 8, lower levels grant you an amount based on how close they are to max) which can then be used to synthesise new Magicites.
Each enemy Myst kills will provide 1 "Experience" to each equipped Magicite, and once they reach a certain amount of "Experience" they will gain a level, which on it's own doesn't do much, but as mentioned before, can be used for more Latent Magicites when Desynthesising.
