1) Same answer as Martialmaniac. But I find it ironic that their proof of loyalty is the tatoo of the creature that is known for it's betraying nature (female eats male, female eats children and vice versa)

2) Can't guess. But I think Pakunoda had her tatoo on her arm.

4) Yes. Again, same reason as Martialmaniac

5) I don't believe Nen can cure.

8) Although Knov is very talented, I don't believe he had ever fought with really strong opponents before. So when he saw just how strong the Royal Guards were, he realized that going against them would be suicide and 'crumbled' due to sheer terror and love for life. But Kite is a different story. He was constantly traveling and faced many strong opponents. And he had also accepted the fact that he was probably going to die.
