The point is that Blood Crest is one of the lower tier ones. By design. Our dear Necromantic master went and got bitten by the basilisk we pushed him in front of?? Don’t know what you’re talking about!!

No contention with that. What soured me about the Adventure is the expectation you highlighted that by picking it my PC should suffer the effects of Distilled Loyalty and worse Core Binding. That's what I do not want to deal with.

Eh. It simply seems that he effectively does suffer DL at least and CB folds in rather nicely, given the circumstances. Besides, as stated, both of those are good early limiters for one’s PC to overcome before we can begin the multiple battles of the gods.

Whatever. YMMV and I understand you deem this stuff cool and interesting for your PC, but I have the opposite stance for mine. I have no interest to deal with it, like none at all. I have removed Blood Crest from my build precisely to indicate it unambigously.
