Useful Info

History
- Prior to 0.32, soul scholars were known as demonspawn black suns. They had Black Mark in place of Sign of Ruin, which buffed individual monsters instead of debuffing the player.
- Prior to 0.28, demonspawns with the black sun class could have any base (monstrous, gelid, infernal, or torturous), instead of all of them being gelid. Additionally, gelid demonspawn had an icemail mechanic, which reduced their AC upon taking fire damage.
- Prior to 0.19, they could cast Malign Offering.
- Black suns were added in 0.14.
