In my campaign, the paladin was subject to a magical attack that had the side effect of shifting his AL one step to CE. Since he was LG, it changed to LN. But now he has lost his paladinhood.
I know the atonement spell can switch his AL back to LG which has already been done by his church. As part of the campaign though, he and another PC are going on a side quest to restore his paladinhood. (Essentially he and the other player could not make it last game night, so I ran a side quest for the players that were there and will run this quest for the the other 2 in a couple of days).
The problem I am having is coming up with a suitable side quest that will challenge the 2 players but not kill them. The players are both 6th level - one is a human warmage and the other is the now LG though still ex-paladin who still does not have his paladin abilities back.
One option I thought of doing was actually giving him some of his abilities back but not all until the quest (destroy an item of evil power from the last BBEG they faced - the one who caused the AL shift in the first place).
Thoughts would be appreciated? Thanks.
