I think it would be complimentary-and not overpowerful-if the freak-lord produced 1 result of crossbreeding per turn automatically. You might get some almost useless, freakish thing that has one claw attack and 5 hp. or you might get a basilisk. On the other hand, it would be nice if the freak-lord got a bonus to using the crossbreeding and improved crossbreeding spells-they're really fun, and I'd definitely use a Pretender who got a bonus. I wouldn't say he's unattractive as such, I mean he's a freak-lord who rides around on some weird humanoid mount like out of Jim Henson's The Dark Crystal. I don't think he's going to make the cover of GQ this year
