 Soul Gargoyle |
|
The Soul Gargoyle is an item that grants access to Merasmissions and allows players to use the Halloween Transmute feature. The Soul Gargoyle was initially available during the Scream Fortress 2015 event, and returned during Scream Fortress 2016. All players logging in to Team Fortress 2 during these events receive a Soul Gargoyle.
This backpack item also "collects souls" representing kills and other points the player scores. On Halloween maps, these collected souls appear as spooky white traces flying to the player from the bodies of slain victims, captured points, pushed carts, or other sources. Translucent green pickup versions randomly spawn on all Halloween maps (except MVM Ghost Town) to be found and picked up by owning players, collecting several additional souls all at once.
Ranks
During Halloween events only, the collected souls are counted by the backpack item; similar to Strange Weapons; thus, the Soul Gargoyle in the backpack has a range of ranks that increase as the player collects souls.
| Rank | Souls Collected | Name |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | 0 | Sad |
| 1 | 666 | Silly |
| 2 | 1337 | Sneering |
| 3 | 2000 | Happy |
| 4 | 4000 | Pleased |
| 5 | 6000 | Delighted |
| 6 | 8000 | Cheerful |
| 7 | 10000 | Joyous |
| 8 | 12000 | Dignified |
| 9 | 14000 | Proud |
| 10 | 16000 | Noble |
| 11 | 18000 | Honored |
| 12 | 20000 | Exalted |
| 13 | 22000 | Breathtaking |
| 14 | 24000 | Outrageous |
| 15 | 26000 | Spectacular |
| 16 | 28000 | Majestic |
| 17 | 30000 | Epic |
| 18 | 32000 | Legendary |
| 19 | 34000 | Australian |
| 20 | 36000 | Merasmus's Own |
Leveling Up
The backpack model of the Soul Gargoyle improves as its rank increases through the first 4 ranks; the Soul Gargoyle starts at Stone quality and levels up with the following ranks:
| Level 1 (0 Souls) |
|
The Stone Sad Soul Gargoyle holds a skull. |
| Level 2 (666 Souls) |
|
The Bronze Silly Soul Gargoyle holds a twelve-sided die. The sides consist of a Swan emblem, the nine class emblems, a Saxton Hale emblem, and a cigarette emblem (signifying the Administrator). |
| Level 3 (1337 Souls) |
|
The Silver Sneering Soul Gargoyle holds the talking pumpkin from the Gargoyles & Gravel comic. |
| Level 4 (2000 Souls) |
|
The Australium Happy Soul Gargoyle holds a pile of "Gargoyles and Gravel" books, with the topmost one being the Gravel Master's Handbook. |
- Note: After the 4th level only the name of the item changes; the icon remains the same.
Halloween Transmuting
Main article: Halloween Transmute
The Halloween Transmute feature allows players to trade in three qualifying items in exchange for an untradable, uncraftable cosmetic item from previous Scream Fortress events.
Every ten transmutes will result in the player receiving an additional bonus item.
