Factions

Every object and creature in *Core Keeper* that deals damage is a part of a **faction**. This determines what creatures it can damage and be damaged by. Creatures typically cannot damage other creatures in the same faction.

Some armor, accessories and set bonuses allow the player to join other factions (e.g. the King Slime Crown and Royal Gel set bonus making the player part of the "Slime" faction, meaning they can no longer deal damage to or take damage from slimes).
