Becoming Night Warrior

[hamjustine]

Describe your suggestion in full detail below: I think some specific characters could become "Night Warrior". We actually know only one case of Night Warrior in Azeroth (which is Tyrande), the 3 others coming from other worlds (https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/Night_Warrior).

To become Night Warrior, character needs to worship Elune, maybe being in war, and survive a hard ritual (big chance of death, decreased by faith and maybe solving an enigma like when you play chess against the death in CK2). Being Night Warrior should increase dread, prowess, martial, and mayyyybe unlock another tree of talents (Elune's Power). However, this should remain rare and extremly difficult.

In the case of Tyrande, successfully become Night Warrior give to her great powers, but also a new kind of troop of Worgens and Night Elves empowered by Elune's Wrath (https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/Army_of_the_Black_Moon). Potentially, win the event can gave a small pack of unique units, or your knight could evolve if they embrace the power of Elune :

(Some of the night elves who fought in Darkshore, such as Shandris Feathermoon and Malfurion Stormrage, are apparently not directly affected by the Night Warrior's influence, as their appearance remains unchanged, possibly indicating that they have chosen not to embrace its powers.)

Also, if you become Night Warrior, you could have some random events, that can drive you to madness.

I had the same thought this morning and did a quick search to see if it had already been suggested. I'm all for adding a Night Warrior Ritual decision.

Here are my ideas regarding the addition of such.

Requirements

• A high amount of piety.
• Elunic religion.

Decision

• 50% (or higher) chance of death. Perhaps this could be influenced by a character stat such as Learning or Martial to make it less risky, but it should still be a bit of a gamble as the ritual is very dangerous and most who attempt it die during the ritual or soon after.

Success

• You gain the Night Warrior trait which gives a lot of bonuses (mainly Prowess and Martial) that last until your character's death.
  • The trait may also have a slight health penalty as some who become Night Warriors die soon after due to the sheer amount of power.
  • You would also gain a lot of piety per month with this trait, since being the Night Warrior is kind of a big deal.

Failure

• Your character dies and you lose the piety it cost to use the decision.

I'm happy this suggestion is opened =). Don't forget the madness. Perhaps with our feature of corruption made by Rob, it could give you level of life corruption also ?

More like Shadow corruption considering black eyes.

Well in that case it could also be arcane as it give white/blueish tattoos and moonfire is an arcane spell

Shadow is the most logical thing since Elune is a dualistic god of Light and Shadow.
