Was Lord Van Bloot actually brainwashed during his stint under the M'arrillians as he claims, or was he just allying with them?
The book seems to give the indication it was out of free will, as he apparently wanted the power.
On the other hand, the card is Brainwashed and it seems out of character for Milla'iin to not be thorough.
I personally say he did it out of free will and just accepted the power-ups M'arrillians give those they brainwash. It seemed like his claim of being brainwashed was more like an excuse(that backfired when he had to hide out with them)
