What uber-bless would you suggest with awake pretender?

I'd try f9w9 Mictlan, ME Ermor, Van/Helhiem/Midgard, or e9n4 Pan.

The problem with blesses is many fold, first there is the option of imprisoned pretenders, as mentioned. Then there is the also mentioned slower research/more gold. But those aside, there are still some nations with sacreds far above the rest.
