[QUOTE="Saeviomagy, post: 7292449, member: 5890"] If your players can't come up with a bunch of reasons for how this works, then they're not trying. And that's basically the most important thing - if you try, you can justify almost anything. The paladin doesn't know about the contract The paladin thinks he can save the sorceror's soul The paladin is working against a greater evil than the sorceror The paladin doesn't give a crap about the afterlife (ie - the only suffering that matters is in life) The paladin would sell his own soul in order to do good, so who is he to judge? The paladin doesn't believe in the afterlife The paladin doesn't believe that it's possible to sell a soul The sorceror values a powerful ally, even if he keeps trying to convert him The sorceror took the contract primarily because he wanted to feel needed, and the paladin makes him feel needed The sorceror doesn't actually want to hand over his soul - it's some form of con The sorceror regrets making the deal The sorceror made the deal to do good etc etc. [/QUOTE]
