Nycto

Nycto adds vampires (and in a future update will add werewolves), and ways to become one or hunt them.

## Vampirism

To get started, kill a Vampire in forests or taigas on new moons and they will drop a Vampire Blood Bottle. Drink it to begin your unholy transformation.

!(https://github.com/MoriyaShiine/nycto/blob/main/.webassets/vampire.png?raw=true)

You can sneak right click on valid mobs to feed, but if you'd like to obtain Blood Bottles for portable use, craft a Vampiric Dagger and attack Villagers, Piglins, or other humanoid mobs with it. Once filled, it can be crafted with or right-clicked with Glass Bottles to extract the blood, or automatically extracted if a Glass Bottle is in your offhand.

Upgrading your vampiric powers further will require the use of a Vampire Altar (any candles or planks work).

You may choose up to 6 vampire powers at a time out of 13 total: ``` - Bat Form: Transforms you into a Bat, granting flight but reducing maximum health and damage dealt. Costs blood to maintain. - Bat Swarm: Summons a swarm of bats that attacks and drinks the blood of anything that you attack or attacks you.

Every other power you choose must also come with a chosen weakness: ``` - Humanity: You lose your innate physical benefits from being a vampire, and regenerate health slower. - Hydrophobia: Hinders movement in water and rain. - Pyrophobia: You burn much faster in the sun. Fire and lava deal more damage. - Rich Tastes: You can only drink blood from humanoid mobs. Blood Bottles aren't as filling. - Thin Blood: Blood no longer saves you from death. - Vile Presence: Mobs become aggressive, animals flee from you and cannot be bred or tamed, and villager trades are more expensive. Hypnotized mobs are unaffected. ```

Vampires can also make Vampire armor with the Blood Bottles they collect to enhance their vampiric abilities, and craft Coffins to sleep in during the day to skip to night.
