Re: Lanka Pretender Design
While I like all the suggestions already given, let me suggest just one more for the collection under CBM 1.6
An Imprisoned Lady of Fortune with W9E4S4N4. With that blessing you can afford
Dom 8
Order 3
Sloth 3
Heat 3
Growth 2
Luck 0
Drain 2
with 9 points wasted.
Or take two points of misfortune, which while objectively a better build is dreadfully unthematic with a Lady of Fortune pretender but will allow you to take less Sloth or more Growth (or more astral if you want to gain lategame wishing access) as you desire based on expected game size and speed. Strictly speaking you don't need the high dominion either, but you can afford it with this blessing and it is always nice to have - especially in EA, which is full of blood sacrificing nations - the one blood ability Lanka does not have.
You gain a bit of fatigue reduction to counter the high base encumbrance of your recruitable sacreds and S4 makes your common demons a bit more magic resistant while N4 is enough to give you the affliction protection of regeneration (which is the most important part of regeneration on your common demons) combined with a nice 2hp/round. With E4S4 you are also guaranteed native access to crystal items, RoS, and RoW if the game lasts long enough to take you into the end-game.
This is in many ways a modest blessing but it is one the Lady of Fortune is well suited for.
