Nightsoul Totems are an exploration mechanic in Natlan.

Strange obsidian totems scattered across the nation, touching these totems will send the player to the Night Kingdom and attempt a trial.

The trial consists of a single Local Legend with the "Night's Trial" effect, which provides an additional effect during the trial. If the player has not selected the right team upon touching the totem, they can initiate and then cancel the challenge to change their team, as they will be allowed to attempt the challenge again or leave the Night Kingdom.

Varying achievements from the Duelist: Series I require accessing and completing the Nightsoul Totem challenges per the requirements for the respective achievement. When all corresponding achievements for that trial are achieved, the Nightsoul Totem will emit a yellow spiral of energy.

All Wayob Proxies linked to the trials are visible from any trial. The appearance of each proxy will change within the Night Kingdom after each of its three achievements is completed, reflecting the progress made.

Trials[]

Trial 1[]

• Trial Location: Basin of Unnumbered Flames, Huitztli Hill
• Other requirements: A short puzzle must be completed to unlock the totem
• Night's Trial:
  • Trial of Decisions: During this trial, the Foliar-Swift Wayob Manifestation will exile the character to a Land of Decision, where you must touch a Nightsoul Fault to leave the Land and return to battle against the Manifestation.
  • When the Land of Decision is activated, the Foliar-Swift Wayob will summon Nightsoul Warriors onto the field to do battle. Defeating them will bestow the "Curse" effect. Each stack of "Curse" increases the DMG dealt by all party members, but will also cause them to continuously lose HP. "Curse" can stack up to 15 times.
