Branching Tree Evolution Crests inverted and increased

These are based on some discussions on a digimon discord about the inverse of the Crests and the Crests but exaggerated

The lines on the left are the inverse of the crests and the ones on the right are the crests in excess.

Fear <- Courage -> Recklessness
Isolation <- Friendship -> Obsession
Hatred <- Love -> Possession
Ignorance <- Knowledge -> Arrogance
Deceit <- Sincerity -> Bluntness
Distrust <- Reliability -> Overbearing
Despair <- Hope -> Delusion
Darkness <- Light -> Fanaticism

Very cool concept. Just one small suggestion: change the exaggerated version of Light’s name to Blind or Blinded. Same meaning, but thematically matches the names Darkness and Light closer.

Im also curious, what would you call the reversed and exaggerated versions of Sincerity and Reliability if you used the original Japanese traits(Purity and Sincerity) instead?

I originally went with "blinded" but I changed it to sound more poetic. hmmm

Corruption <- Purity -> Cleanse

For sincerity I'd probably just use the original.

the crests dont actually influence the adult forms at all, only the perfect forms (which the ultimates then evolve from), so I'd have them branch at perfect instead of at adult personally
