Prana'kai

The Prana'Kai

The Prana'Kai are trials within the Horde, available to all awakened members as a way to test one's strength. These trials offer an extra challenge to those who seek it, and award titles within the Horde. Below are some of the most commonly known Prana'kai, but the list is ever growing:

Prana'Kai of Blood

Description: Two blooded members form a pair and must fight in every heralded field battle during a 24-hour period. These fighters must fight all battles in cooperation with each other and during that time, they must take on each other's wounds. (For example, if one fighter loses a leg, so does the other fighter. If one fighter dies, so does the other one. If the pair has collectively taken two hits then the pair would be dead.) The pair should wear red tabards or matching sleeves that say “Blood Kin/Brothers” on it for the duration of the trial.
Success: Fight all heralded battles during 24-hour period with partner
Symbol: Blood spatter/drop from Horde sword, or a Horde symbol with two skulls

Prana'Kai of the Scavenger

They are allowed to grapple or otherwise steal equipment from other fighters during the course of the fight but must return it upon their death or the end of the game.
