[size=5][b][u]old endings, new beginnings; a necrolocke.[/u][/b][/size]
[size=2]this is going to be my thread for necrolockes -- first time i've done anything of this nature so i'm very excited to see how it all plays out.
OBLIGATORY DISCLAIMER that lore and storylines within this may touch on darker or more mature topics and include things such as mild violence, portrayals of illness, mild body horror, and potential animal/dragon death in the event of a failure. heavier subject matter than my usual lore will definitely come into play during this so if that isn't our speed, it probably isn't the proper thread for you!
relevant rules will be posted below, as well as past/current partakers of the trial!

[size=5][b]Trial of Infection[/b][/size]
-----
Your dragon must wait for Mother to touch their flesh with plague as a sign they are worthy to attempt the second trial. This trial uses [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/pinkpile]Pinkerton's Plundered Pile[/url] as a mechanic
[LIST=1]
[*]Every day, draw an item from Pinkerton. If the item qualifies as a sign from Mother, then your flesh has been touched with plague and you have passed your first trial. The items that qualify as signs from Mother depend on the difficulty level you’ve chosen.
[LIST]
[*][b]Easy[/b]: Necromantic symbols, Coliseum Plague Familiars, Materials and Food dropped by Coliseum Plague Familiars, and Plague items
[*][b]Normal[/b]: Necromantic symbols and Coliseum Plague Familiars
[*][b]Hard[/b]: Same items as Normal. However if you draw an item with any type of bone (Birdskull apparel, bone fragments, etc), you must throw the item into Baldwin to determine if your dragon survives the brush with death. Low rarity transmutation materials ([color=green]Green[/color] colors or [color=dimgrey]Grey[/color] slime) indicate your dragon has died. Your trials end here. Exalt the dragon. Any other color or rarity indicates the fumes of the Wrymwound have triggered a mutation and your dragon is eligible to take [b]Multigaze[/b] regardless of the outcome of the trials. If the bone item is also an apparel item, it counts as a sign from Mother and your dragon may proceed to the next trial.
[/LIST]
[*]If you receive an AMBUSH battle item your dragon has not been able to withstand the deprivations and hardships of meditating near the Wrymwound and has died. Your trials end here. Exalt the dragon.
[*]If your dragon still hasn’t received a sign from Mother by the 23rd day, they have failed the first trial. Your trials end here, but your dragon does not have to be exalted and can seek a new life path.
[*]If you're running multiple Necrolockes at the same time (i.e. sending multiple dragons through the trials at once), you can use [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/crim]Crim's Collection Cart[/url] in lieu of Pinkerton for your sign from Mother.
[LIST]
[*]When using Crim, the first trade offer will apply to your first Necrolocke attempt, the second trade offer will apply to your second Necrolocke attempt, etc.
[*]Note that Crim's pool of trades is [i]Much Larger[/i] than Pinkerton's. The reference box of searchable signs from Mother found below will only apply to a small fraction of qualifying signs from Crim.
[*]You'll have to use the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/game-database]Game Database[/url] and the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/drs/2412017#post_32545840]Necromancer Lore post[/url] to determine if your trade qualifies as a sign from Mother.
[*]Due to this larger pool, ANY [color=maroon]Plague[/color] battle stone indicates your dragon has not been able to withstand the deprivations and hardships of meditating near the Wrymwound and has died. Your trials end here. Exalt the dragon.
[/LIST]
[*][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/3256321/1#post_54629400]Eye rules[/url] reminder:
[LIST]
[*]If your dragon has [b]Uncommon[/b] eyes then they are more susceptible to Mother’s Touch. Your sign from Mother can come from Pinkerton OR Swipp. Same difficulty rules apply. If playing on Hard Mode you can throw an equivalent item into Baldwin's cauldron instead of the trade item itself.
[*]If you receive the BERSERKER battle item then your dragon has broken through its limitations and is eligible to take [b]Glowing Eyes[/b], regardless of the outcome of the other trials. Your dragon may proceed to the next trial immediately.

[size=5][b]Trial of Survival[/b][/size]
-----
The second trial is represented by surviving daily [url=https://flightrising.com/main.php?p=battle]Coli[/url] battles. Before you begin you must get two more dragons to represent [color=maroon]Faith[/color] and [color=maroon]Determination[/color].
[LIST=1]
[*]Your Faith and Determination dragons are symbolic protectors of your trial dragon and are meant to act as damage sponges in the Coli. It doesn't matter where these dragons come from (AH, bred fodder, etc), but they should start at lvl 1 and their breed is partially determined by RNG.
[*]Throw an Apparel item into Baldwin to determine the breed class of your Faith and Determination dragons. Note that every breed has its own base battle stats, which will affect how well it takes physical damage, magical damage, and how likely it is to dodge attacks.
[LIST]
[*][u]Grey Slime:[/u] Choose one physical dragon (Scratch attacks) and one magical dragon (Contuse attacks)
[*][u]White Slime[/u]: Choose two magical dragons (Contuse attacks)
[*][u]Black Slime[/u]: Choose two physical dragons (Scratch attacks)
[/LIST]
[*]The dragon taking the trials should be placed in the middle of the battle formation, with the dragons representing Faith and Determination flanking them on either side.
[*]Choose the Coli venue that corresponds to your dragon’s level.
[*]Your Faith and Determination dragons CANNOT ATTACK. They can only DEFEND. ALL attacks must come from the dragon taking the trials.
[*]While battling in the Coli you CANNOT end a battle by refreshing the page or clicking out of the window.
[*]If your dragon FLEEs they automatically fail their second trial and become a [color=maroon]Ghoul[/color].
[*]If at any point you receive the below Coli drops, your dragon has mastered its plague and has passed the second trial:
[LIST]
[*]Any Plague familiar
[*]Plague battle item (Vile bolt, Pestilent Slash, Diseased Might or Acuity Fragment, Contaminate)
[*]Plague item (Plague Runestone, Rotting Plaguebringer Effigy, Unhatched Plague Egg, etc)
[*]Apparel that qualifies as a Necromantic symbol (see list of symbols under Trial of Infection rules)
[/LIST]
[*]If BOTH the Faith and Determination dragons faint, your dragon has failed its second trial and has become a [color=maroon]Ghoul[/color].
[*]If 23 days have passed and you haven’t received a Plague familiar, Plague battle stone, Plague item or apparel that qualifies as a Necromantic symbol, throw an apparel item into Baldwin.
[LIST]
[*][u]Black slime[/u] indicates your dragon has died. Your trials end here. Exalt the dragon.
[*][u]While slime[/u] indicates your dragon has mastered the plague, but not in time to attempt the third trial. Your dragon has become a [color=maroon]Necroservus[/color].
[*][u]Grey slime[/u] indicates your dragon is still fighting the infection. You may decide to end the dragon’s trial and they will become a [color=maroon]Ghoul[/color]. Or you may continue to battle in the Coli until you receive a Plague drop. Once you receive a Plague drop, the dragon becomes a [color=maroon]Wraith[/color]. While fighting in the Coli, events that would result in death, or the dragon turning into a [color=maroon]Ghoul[/color], still apply.
[/LIST]
[*]If the dragon faints at any point, OR if you get a SAP battle stone coli drop, then the dragon has succumbed to their plague and died. Your trials end here. Exalt the dragon.
[*]Difficulty rules:
[LIST]
[*][b]Easy[/b]: Survive at least one round in Coli a day. You may use ONE minor health potion per day on any one dragon.
[*][b]Normal[/b]: Survive at least one round in Coli a day. You may not use any health potions.
[*][b]Hard[/b]: Survive at least two rounds in Coli a day. The rounds must be consecutive and you may not use any health potions.
[/LIST]
[*]Coli round notes
[LIST]
[*]The minimum rounds you must survive in Coli per day is determined by your difficulty level, however you may attempt as many CONSECUTIVE rounds as you would like. Note that leaving the Coli between any rounds ends your Coli attempts for the day.
[*]The more consecutive Coli rounds you survive, the higher the chances of obtaining a qualifying Coli drop that lets you pass the second trial.
[*]It is recommended that you DO NOT attempt consecutive Coli rounds until your dragons are lvl 2 or above.
[/LIST]
[*]Leveling rules:
[LIST]
[*]The dragon taking the trials can have stat points distributed however you’d like.
[*]Your Faith and Determination dragons MUST have stat points distributed evenly between Agility (AGL), Vitality (VIT), Defense (DFN), and Mind (MND). The easiest way to do this is to assign stat points one by one to all four attributes and then repeat until available stat points are gone. Do not try to make stats equal, as the different breeds start off with uneven stats.
[*]Remember that your dragon must always battle in the Coli venue that matches their level.
[/LIST]
[*]Hatchlings use modified rules during the Trial of Survival. See the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/3256321/2#post_54629491]Hatchling-specific rules[/url] post.
[*][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/3256321/1#post_54629400]Eye rules[/url] reminder:
[LIST]
[*]Regardless of your difficulty level, if your dragon has [b]Unusual eyes[/b] you may use ONE health potion a day on any one dragon.
[*]If/when your Faith and/or Determination dragon are lvl 5 and above: they can learn MEDITATE and BOLSTER [b]or[/b] WARD (only one each) and can cast on your dragon in addition to defending.
[*]Faith and Determination dragons cannot cast BOLSTER or WARD on each other
[*]If the BERSERKER battle item drops then your dragon is eligible to take [b]Glowing Eyes[/b]. Your dragon may proceed to the next trial.
[*]If all three of your dragons have a status effect at the same time then your dragon is eligible to take [b]Innocent eyes[/b].
[*]If a VIAL OF HYPNOTIC SIGHT drops then your dragon is eligible to take [b]Swirl Eyes[/b].
[*]If a SCRATCH or SHRED battle stone drops then your dragon is eligible to take [b]Bright Eyes[/b].
[*]If any FAMILIAR drops your dragon is eligible to take [b]Goat Eyes[/b].
[*]If any VISTA or SCENE drops then your dragon is eligible to take [b]Pastel Eyes[/b]
[/LIST]
[/LIST]
[size=5][b]Trial of Contagion[/b][/size]
-----
For the third trial, your dragon must survive a series of rounds in the [url=https://flightrising.com/main.php?p=battle]Coli[/url] to demonstrate their mastery.
[LIST=1]
[*]Difficulty rules:
[LIST]
[*]Easy mode - Survive 3 rounds
[*]Normal mode - Survive 4 rounds
[*]Hard mode - Survive 5 rounds
[/LIST]
[*]The venue that you fight in will be chosen by RNG. Throw an apparel item into Baldwin:
[LIST]
[*][u]Black slime[/u] - The venue must be within three levels of your dragon’s current level.
[*][u]While slime[/u] - The venue must be within two levels of your dragon’s current level.
[*][u]Grey slime[/u] - The venue must be at your dragon’s current level.
[/LIST]
[*]If your dragon faints at any point, or if BOTH of the Faith and Determination dragons faint, your dragon has failed its third trial and has become a [color=maroon]Necroservus[/color].
[*]If your dragon survives all rounds in the Coli, they have passed all three trials and have become a [color=maroon]Necromancer[/color]. Well done!
[*][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/3256321/1#post_54629400]Eye rules[/url] reminder:
[LIST]
[*][b]Rare eyed[/b] dragons are allowed to use one Major Health Potion on any dragon during the trial.
[*]The eye drop rules from the second trial also apply to the third trial.
[*]If your dragon qualifies for multiple special eye types, you may choose which eye type they ultimately take. You may also choose not to take any special eye types and keep the eyes that the dragon started the trials with.
[/LIST]
[*]Optional fun rule: If your dragon passes all three trials and becomes a [color=maroon]Necromancer[/color], consider re-creating your Faith or Determination dragon, or both, into its [color=maroon]Necroservus[/color].
Trial of Infection
Your dragon must wait for Mother to touch their flesh with plague as a sign they are worthy to attempt the second trial. This trial uses
Pinkerton's Plundered Pile as a mechanic
- Every day, draw an item from Pinkerton. If the item qualifies as a sign from Mother, then your flesh has been touched with plague and you have passed your first trial. The items that qualify as signs from Mother depend on the difficulty level you’ve chosen.
- Easy: Necromantic symbols, Coliseum Plague Familiars, Materials and Food dropped by Coliseum Plague Familiars, and Plague items
- Normal: Necromantic symbols and Coliseum Plague Familiars
- Hard: Same items as Normal. However if you draw an item with any type of bone (Birdskull apparel, bone fragments, etc), you must throw the item into Baldwin to determine if your dragon survives the brush with death. Low rarity transmutation materials (Green colors or Grey slime) indicate your dragon has died. Your trials end here. Exalt the dragon. Any other color or rarity indicates the fumes of the Wrymwound have triggered a mutation and your dragon is eligible to take Multigaze regardless of the outcome of the trials. If the bone item is also an apparel item, it counts as a sign from Mother and your dragon may proceed to the next trial.
- If you receive an AMBUSH battle item your dragon has not been able to withstand the deprivations and hardships of meditating near the Wrymwound and has died. Your trials end here. Exalt the dragon.
- If your dragon still hasn’t received a sign from Mother by the 23rd day, they have failed the first trial. Your trials end here, but your dragon does not have to be exalted and can seek a new life path.
- If you're running multiple Necrolockes at the same time (i.e. sending multiple dragons through the trials at once), you can use Crim's Collection Cart in lieu of Pinkerton for your sign from Mother.
- When using Crim, the first trade offer will apply to your first Necrolocke attempt, the second trade offer will apply to your second Necrolocke attempt, etc.
- Note that Crim's pool of trades is Much Larger than Pinkerton's. The reference box of searchable signs from Mother found below will only apply to a small fraction of qualifying signs from Crim.
- You'll have to use the Game Database and the Necromancer Lore post to determine if your trade qualifies as a sign from Mother.
- Due to this larger pool, ANY Plague battle stone indicates your dragon has not been able to withstand the deprivations and hardships of meditating near the Wrymwound and has died. Your trials end here. Exalt the dragon.
- Eye rules reminder:
- If your dragon has Uncommon eyes then they are more susceptible to Mother’s Touch. Your sign from Mother can come from Pinkerton OR Swipp. Same difficulty rules apply. If playing on Hard Mode you can throw an equivalent item into Baldwin's cauldron instead of the trade item itself.
- If you receive the BERSERKER battle item then your dragon has broken through its limitations and is eligible to take Glowing Eyes, regardless of the outcome of the other trials. Your dragon may proceed to the next trial immediately.

Trial of Survival
The second trial is represented by surviving daily
Coli battles. Before you begin you must get two more dragons to represent
Faith and
Determination.
- Your Faith and Determination dragons are symbolic protectors of your trial dragon and are meant to act as damage sponges in the Coli. It doesn't matter where these dragons come from (AH, bred fodder, etc), but they should start at lvl 1 and their breed is partially determined by RNG.
- Throw an Apparel item into Baldwin to determine the breed class of your Faith and Determination dragons. Note that every breed has its own base battle stats, which will affect how well it takes physical damage, magical damage, and how likely it is to dodge attacks.
- Grey Slime: Choose one physical dragon (Scratch attacks) and one magical dragon (Contuse attacks)
- White Slime: Choose two magical dragons (Contuse attacks)
- Black Slime: Choose two physical dragons (Scratch attacks)
- The dragon taking the trials should be placed in the middle of the battle formation, with the dragons representing Faith and Determination flanking them on either side.
- Choose the Coli venue that corresponds to your dragon’s level.
- Your Faith and Determination dragons CANNOT ATTACK. They can only DEFEND. ALL attacks must come from the dragon taking the trials.
- While battling in the Coli you CANNOT end a battle by refreshing the page or clicking out of the window.
- If your dragon FLEEs they automatically fail their second trial and become a Ghoul.
- If at any point you receive the below Coli drops, your dragon has mastered its plague and has passed the second trial:
- Any Plague familiar
- Plague battle item (Vile bolt, Pestilent Slash, Diseased Might or Acuity Fragment, Contaminate)
- Plague item (Plague Runestone, Rotting Plaguebringer Effigy, Unhatched Plague Egg, etc)
- Apparel that qualifies as a Necromantic symbol (see list of symbols under Trial of Infection rules)
- If BOTH the Faith and Determination dragons faint, your dragon has failed its second trial and has become a Ghoul.
- If 23 days have passed and you haven’t received a Plague familiar, Plague battle stone, Plague item or apparel that qualifies as a Necromantic symbol, throw an apparel item into Baldwin.
- Black slime indicates your dragon has died. Your trials end here. Exalt the dragon.
- While slime indicates your dragon has mastered the plague, but not in time to attempt the third trial. Your dragon has become a Necroservus.
- Grey slime indicates your dragon is still fighting the infection. You may decide to end the dragon’s trial and they will become a Ghoul. Or you may continue to battle in the Coli until you receive a Plague drop. Once you receive a Plague drop, the dragon becomes a Wraith. While fighting in the Coli, events that would result in death, or the dragon turning into a Ghoul, still apply.
- If the dragon faints at any point, OR if you get a SAP battle stone coli drop, then the dragon has succumbed to their plague and died. Your trials end here. Exalt the dragon.
- Difficulty rules:
- Easy: Survive at least one round in Coli a day. You may use ONE minor health potion per day on any one dragon.
- Normal: Survive at least one round in Coli a day. You may not use any health potions.
- Hard: Survive at least two rounds in Coli a day. The rounds must be consecutive and you may not use any health potions.
- Coli round notes
- The minimum rounds you must survive in Coli per day is determined by your difficulty level, however you may attempt as many CONSECUTIVE rounds as you would like. Note that leaving the Coli between any rounds ends your Coli attempts for the day.
- The more consecutive Coli rounds you survive, the higher the chances of obtaining a qualifying Coli drop that lets you pass the second trial.
- It is recommended that you DO NOT attempt consecutive Coli rounds until your dragons are lvl 2 or above.
- Leveling rules:
- The dragon taking the trials can have stat points distributed however you’d like.
- Your Faith and Determination dragons MUST have stat points distributed evenly between Agility (AGL), Vitality (VIT), Defense (DFN), and Mind (MND). The easiest way to do this is to assign stat points one by one to all four attributes and then repeat until available stat points are gone. Do not try to make stats equal, as the different breeds start off with uneven stats.
- Remember that your dragon must always battle in the Coli venue that matches their level.
- Hatchlings use modified rules during the Trial of Survival. See the Hatchling-specific rules post.
- Eye rules reminder:
- Regardless of your difficulty level, if your dragon has Unusual eyes you may use ONE health potion a day on any one dragon.
- If/when your Faith and/or Determination dragon are lvl 5 and above: they can learn MEDITATE and BOLSTER or WARD (only one each) and can cast on your dragon in addition to defending.
- Faith and Determination dragons cannot cast BOLSTER or WARD on each other
- If the BERSERKER battle item drops then your dragon is eligible to take Glowing Eyes. Your dragon may proceed to the next trial.
- If all three of your dragons have a status effect at the same time then your dragon is eligible to take Innocent eyes.
- If a VIAL OF HYPNOTIC SIGHT drops then your dragon is eligible to take Swirl Eyes.
- If a SCRATCH or SHRED battle stone drops then your dragon is eligible to take Bright Eyes.
- If any FAMILIAR drops your dragon is eligible to take Goat Eyes.
- If any VISTA or SCENE drops then your dragon is eligible to take Pastel Eyes
Trial of Contagion
For the third trial, your dragon must survive a series of rounds in the
Coli to demonstrate their mastery.
- Difficulty rules:
- Easy mode - Survive 3 rounds
- Normal mode - Survive 4 rounds
- Hard mode - Survive 5 rounds
- The venue that you fight in will be chosen by RNG. Throw an apparel item into Baldwin:
- Black slime - The venue must be within three levels of your dragon’s current level.
- While slime - The venue must be within two levels of your dragon’s current level.
- Grey slime - The venue must be at your dragon’s current level.
- If your dragon faints at any point, or if BOTH of the Faith and Determination dragons faint, your dragon has failed its third trial and has become a Necroservus.
- If your dragon survives all rounds in the Coli, they have passed all three trials and have become a Necromancer. Well done!
- Eye rules reminder:
- Rare eyed dragons are allowed to use one Major Health Potion on any dragon during the trial.
- The eye drop rules from the second trial also apply to the third trial.
- If your dragon qualifies for multiple special eye types, you may choose which eye type they ultimately take. You may also choose not to take any special eye types and keep the eyes that the dragon started the trials with.
- Optional fun rule: If your dragon passes all three trials and becomes a Necromancer, consider re-creating your Faith or Determination dragon, or both, into its Necroservus.

day one end.
though she's already beginning to feel the faintest inklings of delirium as fever only ramps up, meili doesn't falter yet.
((was especially daring and did Two consecutive coliseum matches the first day before chickening out, meili crit with contuse like 3 times somehow so i'm actually lowkey impressed by her fighting spirit. successfully got to Level 2 and made meili's attacks a bit stronger and faster while making her faith and determination points equally distributed across the required stats!))

day two.
she needed to rest.
how long had she been slipping in and out of lucidity, each brief glimpse of clarity soon washed away by another crashing wave of delirium pulling her under, under, under, until it threatened to drown her? she'd lost count of the minutes, the days, the weeks -- though had she known it was still only the beginning, perhaps fear might have won out in the end.
she wished she had something to drink. her throat too was burning, and ice magic seemed to hold exceptionally little sway here.
despite herself, despite knowing the potential foolishness, meili felt herself fade into the shakiest throes of sleep.
pale eyes fluttered open at the sound of bird cry, at the insistent nudge of a muzzle a muzzle against her flank. the looming canopy of the shrieking wilds was the last thing she'd expected to see, the cloying, suffocating humidity somehow not entirely unlike nature's counterpart territory, though if asked about the stench, she'd say the forest was easier to get used to.
"... nax?" weakly rasped, her throat struggled to get the words out, her paws struggled to push her to unsteady, trembling legs. the bright-toned wildclaw watching her remained insistent, sharp blue hues never wavering as she considered her struggling companion.
"we have to keep moving, mei. we can't stop here."
she was right, of course, but meili's body screamed at the implications of another step in this land, another day spent running endlessly with no goal or destination in sight. the forests wouldn't dissuade those dedicated to tracking them down, surely, and it was only a matter of time before they caught their trail once more.
eyes threatened to close again, and the pearlcatcher winced at the way naxor shook her, at the forceful way she was nudged back to weak legs she felt could barely support her. "you have to keep going, mei." the words a whisper this time, seeming so near, and yet so far away. the achingly familiar scent of the wildclaw wafted around her, so real that it felt as though if she could only reach out, she might touch her once more.
"survive, mei. for both of us."
only empty air met desperate clawtips, and when she opened her eyes, she was alone, sprawling reds and barren wastes greeting her rather than lush greens and the constant rancor of birdsong.
she was alone.
trembling a bit, she drew her pearl closer to herself, the object something to ground to as she tried to focus on staying awake -- staying alive, like nax had said.
i don't know how i can when she couldn't even do the same for me...
((used a tomo trivia prompt for the blurb today since it was pretty uneventful in terms of gameplay, got 4 or 5 battles in at level 2 before things ended up getting too sketchy and we had to back out! still at level 2, hoping to hit level three tomorrow though. tomo trivia was about the viridian labyrinth so i figured a bit of backstory wouldn't hurt.))

only empty air met desperate clawtips, and when she opened her eyes, she was alone, sprawling reds and barren wastes greeting her rather than lush greens and the constant rancor of birdsong.
she was alone.
trembling a bit, she drew her pearl closer to herself, the object something to ground to as she tried to focus on staying awake -- staying alive, like nax had said.
i don't know how i can when she couldn't even do the same for me...
((used a tomo trivia prompt for the blurb today since it was pretty uneventful in terms of gameplay, got 4 or 5 battles in at level 2 before things ended up getting too sketchy and we had to back out! still at level 2, hoping to hit level three tomorrow though. tomo trivia was about the viridian labyrinth so i figured a bit of backstory wouldn't hurt.))
day 3. (late)
((was really tired from work yesterday and forgot to post in here, but i did do some coliseum battles, though i didn't get anything too worthwhile! nothing to pass the test at any rate, though we did hit level three so we're approaching the end of our time in the training fields. woodland path can be pretty mean to lower levels so we'll see if meili gets lucky or not before that point!))
