Nighthaven is the season 10 expansion for New World Aeternum that released in Oct 2025 which features a brand new zone. This zone is mainly dominated by the Upyr family (vampires), the Berlaur (werebeasts), and the corrupted inquisition. The zone also features some elite zones, very eerie towns, procedural expedition called Catacombs, and the Isle of Night raid. 

For this zone, I've created some special creatures that players will encounter across the zone, and also aided in the development and testing of the Nighthaven main story quest.

The Werebeasts:

The Berlaur family is NW's version of the werebeasts who occupy the zone. Unlike the Hercyne creatures in Elysian Wilds, these ones are slightly more sentient and perform special actions. These creatures use heavy swipes and special attack combinations when fighting a player. Some of these werebeasts have a rabid variant that allow them to spread a diseased effect as well.
