I'm not seeing a lot of synergy in the crypt. The combat package is
largely Mark V and some Carrion Crows. I don't see any manuevers in
the deck, so Mark V is useless to anyone but Cailean. With no stealth
action modifiers it feels too risky (to me) to take actions with
anyone but Cailean. I'd go with a weenie Animalism support crypt since
you won't get too upset if they get blocked and beat up in combat.

Do you really need to do 2 more damage? I think 4x Swallowed by the
Nights would be a lot more useful (even though Cailean never needs a
manuever).

Is this only to dump extra Zillah's Valley? I think it will hurt you
more than help you.

These might have to go if you go with a weenie crypt.

So how do you oust? Call Reins of Power when your prey is at 4 pool?
or bleed for 9 with Yong-sun's merged special?

With so much combat & defense I would expect at least a Fame or
Smiling Jack.
