Nemesis Destiny
Adventurer
I like it. I may have a use for it in my campaign...
But how about powers like Turn Undead which hit undead, but do not have a different effect on non-undead? Can you choose to not be undead? I think not.
Yeah, since realizing that it wasn't draining two surges - just reducing the amount you heal by 2 - it's actually pretty solid.

Good details on the Vryloka. Looks interesting. A bit of weakness, that seems to match shadow.
