Probably not, in that if the hero wins the contest, I wouldn't assign any terrible consequences to the spirit.

That would depend on the hero, wouldn't it? Everyone has different abilities.
Most people have some ability that could be used, even if it's a relationship to their clan (which would probably get a modifier, but would represent their attachment to their ancestral spirits [or daimones if you prefer the scientific term]).
