Barsoomcore metioned the idea of sending the character's souls to do some dirty work; you could make their souls go to a prison plane of some sort where it is impossible to get physical access instead of time travel.- Also, I am thinking about using the same idea in a different form. I was thinking about using a Jewel Mage from Bastion's Spells & Magic. They can trap characters in gems, and call them forth to do their bidding, but only the jewel mage or his designated lackeys can use this ability. I could opt for a more mundane evil vs. evil plot, and send the PCs to accompany the lackey on a mission... a lackey that they couldn't kill because he is the only way to get them out of the gem. As a side effect, characters summoned forth from gems get this nifty crystaline template, so it'd be a cool toy for players unfortunate enough to fall victim to the soul gem thing.</blockquote>
