I think someone mentioned mixing WN with D&D on Twitter a while back and I hope that, if so, "D&D" was being used as a synonym for RPG rather than actual D&D 5e (which you shouldn't really do because they aren't synonymous, but I know it's a common thing).
Adapting Warrior Nun into 5e rules seems a bit like fighting the system rather than working with it, at least to me.
Here is a game that depends on character classes -- how will you make it work when all characters will probably share the class of sister warrior? If the idea is to differentiate them through skills, then isn't it better to just ditch the concept of class altogether? Maybe take inspiration from something like Knave, Maze Rats, Cairn if one wishes to stick with a D&D-ish aura.
Fights in WN aren't all that long if you think about it; so how will you conciliate that with the HP sponges that 5e characters are? (An anecdote: the other day I saw someone complaining about their weak initial character, who had some 20 HP. Playing old school D&D, I've had players start with 4. Ask them if they weren't scared shitless of dying -- and if this fear didn't make them play smarter and end up valuing their PCs much more when they levelled up!)
The economy system of 5e (well, of D&D as a whole, really, including older editions) has very little in common with the one our favourite ass-kicking nuns would use -- would it even be necessary, if we assume the Vatican is responsible for providing them with gear?
I'm not asking any of these questions simply because I dislike 5e (which I do, I admit) or to dissuade people from mixing WN and RPGs (I even did it myself once and might or might not be doing it again with another play style and basic system in mind), I just ask that they take mechanics into consideration. 5e can be good for what it's made for (or so I'm told), but in this particular instance it seems inappropriate for WN.
If I may be so bold as to offer amateur designers some suggestions...
I'd start by taking a look at Nathan Paoletta's RPG Design Zine, just because it helps you think about what the hell you're doing.
Generic systems are just that, generic, but they can be much easier to adapt than something so heavily-coded for a certain type of game as 5e is. They can be more complicated (maybe GURPS, though you could go for Lite and consider getting, idk, Religion, Martial Arts, Low Tech, High Tech... Go explore) or lighter. I am a gigantic fan of Freeform Universal Classic, but you could do something cool with FATE or FAE, Mini Six, hell, I don't know! There's a good deal of generic systems out there.
You could be a little more daring, if versed in PbtA games, and hack one up yourself, why not?
All I'm saying is that you shouldn't be wrestling with the system to make this thing. Have it work for you, not against you; find something that can "translate" the show more easily than 5e does.
There's a whole world of games out there, a wealth of inspiration to work with. A lot of creators stick to 5e because it's popular and it helps them get visibility for their products -- and I don't fault them for it, but you aren't going to sell this, are you? You're not the IP owner. Others use 5e because "everybody knows the rules" -- which isn't true and, honestly, if you're going to change the whole thing up so it matches WN, then what's the use of knowing how rangers in a high fantasy campaign progress if you're playing nuns with guns?
I guess my point is: just don't tire yourself out trying to make an apple pie out of ingredients meant for chocolate cake.

13,14, and 29 for the writer wrapped
you got it!!!
13. What’s your longest work of the year?
meet me where the hours bend, Horizon, 3308 words. What can I say, I'm a shortform writer. I guess the real answer would be the Talanah script for FOTH, but....
14. What’s your shortest work of the year?
genuflection, Warrior Nun, 200 words. For the flashfic zine!
29. Favorite line/passage you wrote this year?
OH NO this one is HARD. First one that popped into my head's gotta be this passage from here--which, in retrospect, feels like I wrote it SO long ago lmao: Aloy’s salt-stung eyes flicker up as Talanah approaches with the next empty canister. It’s as tall as her waist, and she’s carrying it by the handles crafted near the top. Her movements are easy and light, her smile is soft and unbothered, and her silk and Carja armor look a lot more forgiving than the hide and fur Aloy’s wearing. But when she draws up alongside Aloy to make the exchange, it’s clear that the heat is affecting her, too. There’s a fine sheen of sweat slicked over all that Aloy can see of her skin. Skin. Oh. Has Talanah always—had skin? Stupid question, Aloy. Of course she’s had skin. Everyone does. But Aloy’s never been this close to someone else’s skin before, not that she can remember. Never noticed it like this. She’s definitely noticing Talanah’s now, though. It’s impossible not to notice when her skin is glowing, glistening like that, near enough for Aloy to reach out and touch. Makes her want to be even closer. And maybe that unnerves her, just a little. All the heat flares into triple, like she just swallowed a mouthful of the boiling sunlight.

Additional INFO from the Warrior Nun Substack Newsletter (link below so YOU can verify it yourself)
Anticipated questions:
What is the news?
+We were not told what the news is, just asked to share it.
Sounds like a leak to us!
Who told you?
+We have promised not to disclose that information.
No one want's to get sued. Fr fr
When will we get more info?
+At or around the 15 million announcement from Simon, in whatever form that takes. (which will likely be in the days after the actual goal is reached, as a reminder)
Does this mean Simon knows? What if Simon is the source and he is just waiting to get permission from AppleTV's legal department to tell us?! Delusional, maybe... but.... At this point anything is possible.
Is this just leading the fandom on?
+No. The party that disclosed this information is a credible source.
And they know they would be at the mercy of an unhinged fandom.
Who is it?
+See #2.
Being sued is bad. noted.
Why is this news coming from here instead of Simon or someone else?
+The nature of our work, in partnership with the OCS Newsletter, means that we communicate daily with fans, cast, crew, and other interested parties. As part of that process, we are one point of contact for those folks to reach out to when there's news to share.
Okay now, this actually makes sense. If you are a whistleblower you don't share the leak on your own personal pages or make a new one just to spill tea with zero followers. Not if you are serious about your info. You get people with a network to do the work for you. (sounds familiar) At the very least one with an email list.
Overall this is cautious optimism because who knows what the news could be. Some theories we have:
Comic/Graphic Novels: plausible, given the history of WN. Would be good to align the current creators with the NF series.
Novel Series: very plausible, Dean English was on the OCS Conclave with a WRITER next to him. People. 💥💥💥
Expanded Universe: very plausible, in the same panel with Dean English and the WRITER, they revealed they were working on the long-term story of Warrior Nun. That's not just a movie or a final season of WN.
Movie: plausible, while disappointing, look at ALOTO... Final 4 episodes, which works out to be a long movie. Other cancelled series have also gotten wrap up movies. So long as it's Avatrice focused we can live with this.
Podcast: unlikely, this would be a huge slap in the face of the fans and one would think the source would not be dumb enough to hype up a podcast. While great for the Doctor Who fandom, WN fans only want one thing.
Literally Nothing: very unlikely, as mentioned above the source is not willing to risk their own flesh by pissing off a very angry audience. Also, the person in charge of the Substack is not some random fan. You can see on the tweets that link to the newsletter the name Trust Insights (because tw hates Substack links so they had to reroute the click.) See Trust Insight's case study clients... https://www.trustinsights.ai/expertise/case-studies/
Netflix Repentance: plausible, but very skeptical about this one. Even with NF recent "change of heart" around their viewing metrics (as of 3rd week of June) they have shown a consistent ignorance of audience demand. But who knows, maybe they are just broke enough and need the money to pay some overdue bills.
AppleTV/Streamer Pick-Up: plausible, now this would be one impressive shake-up during the WGA strike that is still ongoing. And unprecedented because, as we all know, NF doesn't sell the rights. (But then... how can Dean talk about books... and how can Simon say Dean is the person to ask about Video Games... And why would Simon say "the people who own the rights" but not name NF in Empire Magazine... while being very clear that he (Simon) can't get the season 2 bloopers because NF owns the footage... nah, must not be important.) Complicated legal things. But doesn't mean NF couldn't lease out WN to another platform and that platform could make more content... hello HBO/NF deals. Again more delusions.
So all that to say... Something is happening. We don't know what, but you don't send a fandom into hype unless you have something really good.
Because if it's nothing - you will lose that audience
Note: all of the above can be verified via Twitter search, www.warriornun.com press releases, AngeChat's and BeMoreSuper's interviews on YouTube, OCS Conclave Videos on YouTube, the OCS Newsletter, and of course the DAILY released Substack Newsletter.
