Faction Color: Blue Grey
!! THIS FACTION IS UNFINISHED !!
Background
With every racing heartbeat and cold sweat, the Nocturne are there. They are parasitic entities that exist in the corner of the eye and the weight on the chest during a waking freeze. While the Dreamweavers are content to graze on peaceful thoughts, the Nocturne invade the minds of the living to strip away every comforting lie, every hope, and every memory. They leave behind a hollow shell that they can then inhabit as a vessel to the living world.
When the Nocturne are near, pray the light never goes out.
Faction Trait
The NOCTURNE Faction Archetype is Systemic.
The NOCTURNE tracks a global Nightfall Meter. The Nightfall Meter advances by +1 at the start of every turn. Additionally, the first time any opponent card is destroyed each turn, the meter advances by an additional +1 (Maximum gain of +2 per turn).
When the meter reaches 10 stacks, Nightfall is triggered as a non-token status for 2 rounds.

Semi-token statuses can only exist in one form or the other on the playfield, never both at the same time.
Non-token state will always override the token state.
Standard token and non-token rules apply depending on the applied source type.
