Character Rework | Polnoch
In the early days of The Bornless, each match comprised eight players, organized into duos. Among them were Polnoch and his partner Maya, a skilled tomb raider and archaeologist. Our commitment to creating characters that not only look cool but also resonate with players in various ways has been an ongoing endeavor. At our latest playtest in October, we've heard that we are in need of more distinctive character designs, so we decided to do something about it. We started with the main duo, Harry and Denzel, but given Polnoch's popularity in previous playtests, we are excited to kick off our Character Rework showcases with his remarkable evolution

[h3]Who is Polnoch?[/h3]
Much is unknown about the man named ‘Polnoch’. Almost certainly a moniker given to him, the Russian root word translates into ‘Midnight’. Curious, given that one of the few things we do know about him is that he is distinctly not Russian. Perhaps it is an attempt at obscuring his true identity? Regardless, Polnoch is a dangerous man. He was trained from a young age to hunt Demons for an equally mysterious organization, the masters of which remain shrouded in secrecy.

[h3]Role In The Bornless[/h3]
Polnoch appears as one of the major eight playable characters within the Bornless universe. The timing of his arrival on Farmouth Island, just a few short days before the titular ritual was invoked, has led many to believe he had a hand in the events that unfolded… Whether that is true or not remains to be seen. For now, Polnoch’s role in The Bornless seems to align with the rest of the core cast of eight; that is, to invoke the ancient ritual. To fight. To survive.
