Nightborne in Pixel Lineage — odds, passive, and evolution

Here, Pixel Lineage means the turn-based Roblox roguelike, not the LineageOS Android ROM.

Nightborne is discussed beside the Human portrait because that is the wiki plate I have.
Human plate from the wiki. It is not a Nightborne portrait — I do not have one, and I will not fake it.

What I checked

I pulled the Nightborne row from the Fandom race table and the heirloom map Allthings published on 17 Oct 2026. I have not evolved a Nightborne hero, so stage-3 effects stay blank where the sources left them blank.

The roll

Nightborne is Mythic at 0.72%. Passive on the wiki: Bloodthirst. Wiki: 20% of damage to HP, cap 15% max HP. Other guides: 15% / cap 7%

Two numbers are in circulation. Wiki: 20% of damage returns as HP, cap 15% of max HP per move. Allthings and Roonby: 15% and a 7% cap. I am not choosing one without a tooltip screenshot.

Evolution pins

These pins are community location notes. Roonby and Allthings disagree on some acts. I do not have a drop rate.

Questions

What does Nightborne do in Pixel Lineage?

Bloodthirst. Wiki: 20% of damage to HP, cap 15% max HP. Other guides: 15% / cap 7%

How do I evolve Nightborne?

Kindled needs the heirloom (Act 9 Nightmare, Stormcaller). Exalted needs the heartblood (Crypt Lord (Act 2)). Stage 3 is named Nightlord where a name exists. Counts for that last step are not published.
