[QUOTE="Tabarnak Smokeblower, post: 1044013, member: 12987"] Don't want to be mean or anything, but the setting of the adventure really looks like you want to screw the Paladin over. This could lead to interesting gameplay, but overall, the Paladin will probably (judging by what you're saying) suffer for trying to help two good people. Maybe I'd be bad sport, but if my DM would pull the "damned if you do, damned if you don't trick on me", I'd probably simply sacrifice the Paladin ("I exchange my soul for this noble girl's soul") and roll-up a chaotic neutral character next time and be done with moral dilemmas. Call me Sour Grape. I'm probably reacting much to violently to the situation you're proposing. Perhaps something similar happened to me in a former life and I haven't come completely to terms with. Oh well. :) You can be a bastard GM and ask for the soul of another party member. You can be a normal GM and ask for the soul of the chief of the assassins ("He who has taken too many lives must now pay with his"). I'm not sure of how things work in your campaign, but I assume that the PC's would have to capture said assassin and bring him to the church. Other than that, I don't know what to propose you. Good luck! TS [/QUOTE]
