[QUOTE="Tauric, post: 3417446, member: 7778"] Great ideas, people! How's this: the halfling believes the god-thing is a truly benevolent being, and the cult does good works for halflings throughout the land. He has no idea that he will be called on to kill his fellow halflings. He receives visions of a halfling utopia that arises due to the arrival of the god-thing, but the details are sketchy as to how. While, he doesn’t like or trust big-folk, but has no problem hiring them for dangerous tasks, like retrieving the MacGuffin. Eventually (after delivering the important MacGuffin, of course), somehow, the PCs discover the true nature of the god-thing. They try to convince the lead of it, but he lashes out, believing their words to be big-folk lies. He hires assassins (other big-folk) to kill the PCs. If the PCs try to kill him, he surrounds himself with his (innocent) followers (ooh, I hope someone plays a paladin). The visions the cult leader has been receiving have been eroding his sanity, so when he gets a vision telling him to steal babies, he doesn’t think anything of it. To get back at the PCs, he even attemps to kidnap a relative. The PCs now have to rescue babies/stop the ritual. Thanks, everyone, you’ve given me a lot to think on. T [/QUOTE]
