This is proof that you've returned alive from challenging all eight Malevolent Crucibles. Since each one only allows certain characters to enter, you'll need mastery of techniques and knowledge for each one of them.
This is proof that you've completed all the extra dungeons at difficulty level Normal or above. But further challengers await you, in places you've been and places you have yet to be.
