She had a child by a celestial, and then converted to cleric.  She was solidly evil, but would help the PCs in discovering secrets that she thought they should know.  It helped that one of the PCs was her son, an Assimar and one of the few good clerics of the goddess.   When he died she came to collect the rod of lesser silence and stillness claiming it belonged to the temple.  They could have taken her apart, but she exuded such power and mystry they backed down. When they asked for payment she provided a few obscure but usefull hints.  When the PC's later returned to the ruined city where he had died, the barbarian tribes had been decimated and the dungeon caved in.  She had hired the most (in)famous band of mercenaries in the land, and then accompanied them.  They never saw her again but she was always acive either hiding or exposing secrets.  In the final game the primary villians were trying to suck the world into the far realm, and the players hit thier main base while the BBEG and his lieutant were visiting a city and the leader was ambushed and the lieutant slain, once more through her orders and manipulation. The second that comes to mind was bob the dretch spy.  A sorcerer with int 7. and disguise self.  He had a stupid grin, a tendency to wave and an accent.  His clever tactics included telling people he was not a spy.  Changing his name to rob, and adding a large wart to his nose (while still disguised as a gnome.)   And draping himself in blankets (when out of disguise self spells) He was grappled and stabbed to death with cold iron arrows.</blockquote>
