Category suggestion: Necromancy%

Rules: Get the Necromancer's crown, build the bridge out of bones. Timer starts at class confirmation, ends at the Frisco movie theater.

Pros:
-More consistent than Any%
-Almost no RNG to worry about
-Has better dramatic pacing than Any%.
-Shows off the game a bit better
-Skeletons are rad

Cons:
-Is slower than Any%
-has skeletons (very scary)
-Can't be done in hard mode (hard hat eats the necromancer's crown)

I propose this category since a fast time in Any% is more dependent on random chance and luck, and restarting 600 times for a shot at a decent run isn't especially fun. I looked up a bunch of location dependencies and found that you can consistently guarantee just about every location you'll need to visit in getting a good Necromancy% run. The only piece of RNG is in finding the Perfessor's House, but that's weighted much more heavily in the pool once it's available than the Silversmith's Hut is.

Here's a guide to the route through necromancy%. It's less detailed than the one I wrote for Any%, but it's what I used for getting the hang of the route.

And here's a Necromancy% run I did in 7m39s:
