For anybody who's interested in custom Cadences (or other characters), the official NecroDancer FAQ has some info about creating custom characters, and even has a link to the pinned thread on the official forums, where people have posted some of their custom creations:

So I was doing some Low Percent attempts with Eli... and honestly, given the game's history of sending Green Bats during my Low Percent attempts, perhaps I shouldn't have been surprised, but... I was. =p
So, uh... anyway, this is actually my first ever Green Bat with Eli! I've always thought that, with both range (bomb-kick) and attack area (explosion), Eli would probably be a pretty good character against Green Bats... and sure enough, he is. Definitely easier than Cadence Low Percent. =)
Oh, and as of the last Amplified update (v2.45), Eli has a 0-damage "shove" attack. Very useful for when "move every beat" enemies get too close. Interestingly, it's also pretty useful against Leprechauns (see notes (1:51) below). =)
Anyway, here's the video... hope you enjoy!
The Green Bat was encountered (Zone 2, Level 2) at around: 5:38
The mini-bosses and bosses I encountered during this run were:
Zone 1: Direbat, Red Dragon, Gray Minotaur, & Fortissimole 1.
Zone 2: Nightmare, Green Banshee, Red Dragon, & King Conga 2.
Zone 3: Banshee, Gray Minotaur, Blue Dragon, & Deep Blues 3.
Some notes and possible points of interest:
0:07 1-1
0:38 Mb: Direbat
1:14 1-2
1:35 Mb: Red Dragon
1:51 Leprechaun! Interestingly, Eli's new "shove" attack (where he apparently shoves an enemy away with his shovel) is pretty useful for mining gold from Leprechauns! =) It requires very little space (slightly more if you want the Lucky Charm without blowing up the huge piles of gold), and though it takes longer for the Leprechaun to drop the gold... picking all of it up is a lot quicker than having to backtrack along a long trail of 25-gold piles. ^^
2:23 Ack, monkey!
2:39 Eep! Red bat room!
2:41 Umm, let's just leave! ^^;
2:44 1-3
3:11 Mb: Gray Minotaur
3:38 Zone 1, Boss: Fortissimole 1
4:12 Flawless! Reward: (skipped for Low Percent)
4:18 2-1
4:53 Mb: Nightmare
5:34 2-2
5:38 What the...? Green Bat! Wow, I think this is my first ever Green Bat with Eli. ^^;
6:00 Thinking about making this a normal run (the shop is just over there!)... but decide to stick with the Low Percent run instead. ^^
6:04 Mb: Green Banshee
6:35 2-3
6:49 Mb: Red Dragon
7:37 Zone 2, Boss: King Conga 2
8:35 Flawless! Reward: (skipped for Low Percent)
8:41 3-1
10:15 Mb: Banshee
10:30 3-2
11:23 Ack! Red bat room!
12:01 Ow. =/ Should've shoved instead of bombing. =p Interestingly, shoving knocks skeleton knights off their mounts. I'm not sure if this is intended behavior or a bug. ^^
12:57 Mb: Gray Minotaur
13:12 Woo! Made it on the last beat of the song! =)
13:12 3-3
13:51 Mb: Blue Dragon
14:12 Zone 3, Boss: Deep Blues 3. Hmm, I think this one has enough health to require two bombs. I don't remember if there's an easy way to do that...
14:51 "You died! Press Up + Down to continue." Oops, that's... obviously not the right strategy to use. ^^; Heh. Ah well. =)
