What it actually said in Tales #10 was that pure-blooded Agimori can join the cult automatically, non-agimori must past certain tests and that part-Agimori are treated differently in different areas. The Kresh and the Men-and-a-half consider the trace of any other blood to make a person non-Agimori while the people of Katele simply require dark hair, black eyes and dark skin.
