I'd once considered giving Lorian a Sion's Glory in Death-esque passive once Lothric is downed, but it ended up overcomplicating things. The complication conflicted with this blog post's theme of simplicity, and thus it was scrapped.

Basically, if Lothric is down, Lorian is all alone until he is downed as well. I also believe this would give opponents extra incentive to target Lothric instead of Lorian, which would in all honesty make for more meaningful gameplay.
