In a game I run one of the characters who is a tempest cleric of a chaotic good deity attracted the attention of a succubus. I decided she would try and corrupt him with the three elements as stated in the MM. The first one was to commit an evil deed - she tricked him into releasing a lich. I then told the player what was going on and that the succubus would be trying to observe him to see if he would commit 2 other acts of evil. He later abandoned the rest of the party who were trying to kill a priest of Orcus in his lair. He and the wizard retreated as their two companions had been knocked to 0 but had killed all the enemy except the last tough bad guy, the wizard readied himself to return and when the bad guy came after them the cleric drank a potion of gaseous form that had multiple uses without offering it to the wizard and seeped away leaving the wizard behind. The wizard got knocked to 0 and the last tough bad guy (not knowing that the priest had seeped away) chased after where he thought the fleeing priest had gone. The wizard rolled a 20 on his second death save and doubled back to where the other two characters had been abandoned, one had died, he revived the other.
The final act came during treasure division. There are up to 8 players and due to characters getting captured only 3 have solid loot. The cleric has if not the most and best magic loot he is in the top 2 or 3. During the latest division he lied saying that he hadn’t got any loot in the last 3 treasure divisions (he had). He is good at getting loot as he can be quite persuasive and he cares about it and most others let him have his way if he kicks up a fuss. One of the other characters with good loot felt bad and gave the cleric an item to make up for this apparent “discrepancy.” Some of the others who actually have very little loot got nothing or a small item.
So after all that I have decided that he has now committed 3 acts and his soul is forfeit. I suppose I could say that when he dies he will discover he is in the abyss but I want to make more of an adventure and story out of it. Have him try and recover his solid etc.
So I’m looking for help and ideas.
Thanks.
