>You could make it something like you temporarily lose your powers if you retreat or run away from battle. I think that would be more in line with her character at least in my opinion.
That's a good idea but I'm not sure how it would work.
Also I'm thinking about chaning the mark pact so that your back is your weak spot making it "noticeably" less resistant than the rest of your body.
Now that I think about it I could fuse your idea of being punished for running away with this it could work something like this:
Your back is a huge weakness, but only if you run away from battle, and it will stay that way for a week or until you regain your honor by defeating the guy that made you run away.

That way you are heavily incentiviced to stay your ground without stripping you of power and giving you a way to stop the curse.
