I have a question. Why doesn't he just. Kill everyone?. I mean. He can absorb essences to gain skills and abilities. And it's obvious that he can absorb essences from the same person if he restarted. And what he absorbs carries over every restart so. Why doesn't he go all genocide route. Absorbe everyone's essences. Restart. Do it again until all stats are maxed out?. I mean. He did let the necromancer die in this run. So it's not like he can't bring himself to sacrifice someone in a run if he is sure that they will be there the next run. So why not genocide?.
