Right now the nightrisers are a mystery. Where do they come from, why do they guard around the ziggurat, and who leads them. I think that it would actually be fun to make a group of chars that are nightrisers. They would be a higher rank than a commander and follow orders of the leader nightriser ( a DM controlled person) and lead us through the area. We would try to do many things, and hopefully do the goal of the nightrisers (which is also unknown), and try to make a great story with this maybe. I know that if it was a DM approved concept it could put a great plot in Archipelago.

Not possible.

Apping for Nightrisers would give you so much damn knowledge of the Ziggurat it would be ridiculous. It was like Applying for Chosen- you could, but it would never get accepted.

I think the charm of the Ziggurat is the fact we know nearly nothing about it or it's undead defenders. I believe it should stay that way, until IC actions uncover the information.

I think also because the DMs have pretty forcefully said in the past no undead PCs.

I would think that this is similar to playing a Chosen. It would require far too much knowledge of the lore and an understanding of things that are yet to be discovered.

A further problem would be the inability of nightrisers to walk in the open during the day. That would make things very restricting.

Actually I believe there was a possibility and interest of the implementation of a non-cannon undead type by some DM, but it would take a while to do that and the work surrounding it beside scripting in the past as well, I believe.  But that was a while ago, the idea forgotten and right now the DMs are pretty busy on other things!  But no Nightriser PCs I would think unless they had some kind of still working ritual to make you one from a citizen of the ziggurat, which means you wouldn't know the spoilers.

Among the many things that make this completely impossible, is that the dms would have to create a whole set of quests for nightrisers pcs... I can't imagine nightrisers picking oranges for the ziggurat old woman. :D

Though no DM has waded in here yet, it's a safe bet this will not happen, ever. Having said that, app and try by all means! You never know...
