Acquire Squire (please change this)
1250 Cost Gun Item

Passive:
¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Active 40s:
Summon a Candle Squire. (would add a condensed version of below in-game)


Candle Squires: Candle Squires will move and attack with their summoner, applying any Item Based effects the player has (Toxic Bullets, Spiritual Overflow, Inhibitor, etc. But not character specific effects like Fixation or Afterburn) and will also share 40% of heals that the summoner receives. They have 1.5x the HP of normal troopers, .75x fire rate of normal troopers, and give a flat 50 souls on death that scales (like Mcginnis Turrets). Candle Squires will also passively secure friendly souls around the summoner, but at a delayed rate compared to their fire rate. Also every 3rd shot a Squire lands on a enemy will be a headshot (for synergy with Spellslinger and Crippling.) You can only have 1 squire at a time and they will act like a normal trooper if you die.

Just a fun idea I had in my head, a alternative to Fleetfoot that is also a diet Richochet, I think Wraiths will really love this item. I want to add the cool detail that Squires would arrive on the lines like normal troopers do but that could be too complicated. I also thought about converting a existing trooper but that also seems complicated and could be abused to deny your enemy laner early on. Also I just think having a little guy running around with you securing your souls with you is cute.
 
Oh after reading up a bit on the wiki about troopers have a couple more things to add

- Squires receive the same spirit resist normal troopers do
- using the old flying trooper idea would be great for the squire, removing any need for complicated pathing and making conserving the Squire harder.
