Caradryan's personality does a full 180, he never utters a single word ever since he entered the room, and he gave up all his worldly possessions. You could argue that wasn't trauma, but it certainly broke him in a way.
Well yes it did. I imagine suddenly knowing how and why you're going to die is something of a wake-up call for a wastrel such as Caradryan was. That's not 'the room is inherently traumatising', that's 'knowledge of the future can change your perspective'.
What Caradryan went through wasn't just a change in perspective. He stopped speaking. Completely. Most people don't just suddenly lose their ability to speak becauase of a simple change in perspective.
Nah, Grail Knights are simply high level champions of their gods. The equivalent would be something like the lieutants of an everchosen, maybe the everchosen himself for something like the Bretonnian King. Grail Knights are still more human than spirit, unlike Daemon Princes.
Even before the End Times, the Green Knight being Gilles was glaringly obvious and heavily hinted in universe with plenty of in text speculation about it being the case. Ascended mortals are known as Venerated Souls, who are given that titile after death and sometimes worshipped. Some of these Venerated Souls can come back as Divine Servants when summoned by a ritual or a God expends energy to release them on the mortal world, which is quite rare. Not all Divine Servants are Venerated Souls, some are essentially fragments of the god in question, representing some aspect of the god.
He didn't lose the ability. He joined the Phoenix Guard, who, as part of their nature as a religious order, take a vow of silence. It's a thing people have done in real life.
Not really. Grail Knights are not that powerfull. More to point I am perfectly fine with cut rate Grail Knights.
Damp women chucking swords is best method of picking a monarch. Accept no substitutes.
Apparation binding! And we will get experience once we take the first apparation action.

I just want to bind some Red Riders toringsthey can be used to power themselves up as needed with some spooky shadow aestatic. Like so;
He didn't enter the shrine deciding to become a Pheonix Guard. He entered, came out and never spoke a single word since, even before he officially joined the order. I'm not sure how much of that was an informed decision, and I can't say that I fully trust that everything was done with his full consent. The vibes I get from the whole story is that he literally had no choice but to submit to Asuryan.
Main argument I have against is that they're a Father candidate so I'd like to tackle them the turn after with a bunch of other possibilities.
