No Return
Complete a game with 0 AP remaining.
Plan your maritime movement on Map 3 so your ship navigation AP drops to exactly 0 when reaching the final boss node.

Straightforward with the Swordmaster. Purge her starting ranged cards early at taverns and never draft ranged attack rewards.
Inept Swordsman

Combine damage-doubling buffs, critical hits, and scaling attacks like 'Heavy Fire' or relics like the 'Telescope', ideally against high-armor bosses.
Around the Corner

Decline relic rewards after battle or sell them immediately at the next market to ensure you never carry more than one relic simultaneously.
Purified
Complete a game with Curse Captain without any curse cards in your deck.

Purge the starting Shoot, Punch, and Wooden Shield cards at taverns or via trash can events as early in the run as possible.
Keep Calm

Fallen from Grace
Have less than 100 Coins when you complete a game with Admiral.
Spend all your gold at the final market and tavern on upgrades and card removals right before the stage 3 boss so your coin count drops below 100.
