The one real problem with Kazarzeth is that the witch's infernal shroud automatically finishes mortally-wounded foes, so the Kazarzeth plunge ability (along with whatever possible benefits using it on a foe the blood of which the Kazarzeth desires) will be more or less unusable while the shroud is active.  Whether or not this sort of juggling act would be worth it is fairly debatable, but joining Kazarzeth could be useful to open up a weapon type that would not normally be especially available (sword, spear, or axe) as well as give a rather spectacular, if persnickety, weapon.&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt; &lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style=&quot;background: #eee; font-size: smaller;&quot;&gt;Kazarzeth gives a very nice weapon, along with an extra 5 specialty access in the weapon type, and some useful powers once cthonimancy is raised high enough.

Unfortunately, this association doesn't give a whole lot -- [[Nezcaluca]] can be a useful trainer for Ordo Maleficus, but the days where witches were forced to scrounge up whatever available training they could find are mostly past.  The association itself gives some specialty access, but it's nothing spectacular, unless one simply must have access to photonic affinity or fire affinity for some reason.&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

Oculus Malum did not appear to have any lasting effect on the test character on which it was cast, but did do a significant amount of damage to a single limb.&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
