Justifying Stat Lowerings

Okay, we all know that when creature gets a different version, its stats are different. Now you come up with justifications for it. For example, Najarin lost Courage and Wisdom against the Fluidmorphers because he was having horrible nightmares of Aa'une(as seen in Oligarch's Path and the Instruction Books) and Chaor's Courage, Wisdom, and Speed were shot down as Chaor the Fierce because during he bulked up too much(lowering speed) and became too clouded with rage to make plans(lowering wisdom)

Now come up with some of your own. I think that only changes of 20 or more should be counted, just to keep things from clutter.

Frafdo lost his courage after seeing the M'arrillians brainwash his comrades and gained wisdom in an attempt to find a strategy against it, Lord Van Bloot decided to stop hitting the gym after being convinced by Phelphor that there are better ways to conquer the Underworld and became much weaker and slower, Intress started training in the jungle again after living in Kiru City so long and got her feline courage, strength and speed back.

Do those sound reasonable?

Yup, I like Bloot's

Yokkis used to need teammates to feed him power, but after so much time living in the Forest of Life, he absorbed some energy from it and had his power, speed, wisdom, and courage driven to the maximum he needed teammates to achieve before. Lore got a ton more confident as he learned the ways of the ancestors and began barbecuing M'arrillians. Mudeenu got massive confidence boost when his brother promoted him and decided to not disappoint him and so trained his body immensely, unfortunately going lax on his studies in the process.
