There's a one-shot module called <a href="http://rpg.drivethrustuff.com/product/107645/Up-From-Darkness-PFRPG?term=up+from+darkness" target="_blank">Up from Darkness</a>, which features a party of adventurers intended to be the opposition force in the third module of the Curse of the Golden Spear, <a href="http://rpg.drivethrustuff.com/product/92499/Dark-Path-Curse-of-the-Golden-Spear-Part-3-PFRPG" target="_blank">Dark Path</a>. So an a GM could run both, at the appropriate time, and the players Dark Path get to fight the NPCs that they represented in Up from Darkness - as an interesting twist.More in line with your original thought, I've run adventures where one of the party members was subject to a Charm Person spell, but rather than I the GM, running the charmed PC, I gave specific written instructions to the player stating what the charm was forcing the PC to try and accomplish, then letting the player run his PC as charmed under those instructions - and attack the rest of the party, while trying to steal an important party magic item. It went well.I've done similar things with a PC transforming into a werewolf and PCs becoming undead. Also the way the Kaidan death mechanic works, if a PC becomes transformed into undead, they can still participate with the party as an undead member, however if the undead PC is lain to rest or "destroyed" in Kaidan, the spirit of that undead being can return to the reincarnation cycle and be reborn as a living person once again. Just because you become undead in Kaidan, is not necessarily the end of the line for a given PC.</blockquote>
