In Karryn’s Prison, the progression system is governed by a unique mechanic where the protagonist, Karryn, gains "Titles" based on her actions and statistics. Each Title unlocks specific Passives.

Karryn’s prison passives define how she behaves, scales, and survives inside a prison environment in gameplay—shaping tankiness, damage output, utility, and interaction with other systems. This guide digs into the passives’ mechanics, synergies, build implications, and playstyle choices so you can optimize Karryn for different roles (sustained bruiser, burst-delivery assassin, or hybrid utility).
