[QUOTE="Dog Moon, post: 2503154, member: 23023"] Since sacrifices power it, I would have it keep the souls within it. It uses the souls like energy, consuming one of it ever becomes weakened. They could also be used as different attacks or defenses. It controls several souls which it has released into the world. These souls are served as spies, allowing it to contact people if it so desires and watch the surrounding areas near where it is located. They could also serve as a defense. Imagine a creature with souls circling it, blocking attacks and magical effects. However, one thing it can do, which people want, is that it can give souls to other people. The trade consortium is serving for a way to steal the souls from it to grant themselves power. An interesting idea for the cleric would be that it wasn't purely lust in and of itself, but lust for a single person, a beautiful women he wanted ever since he saw her. However, she was married to someone else and pushed away his advances. His lust drove him into raping her and thus began his long fall from grace. This woman, during this time when he created the cult, etc., was killed, but before she could go to heaven, the creature stole her soul. He doesn't use it any, but keeps it just in case he needs to use her soul against the cleric. Honestly, I'm not sure about goals for the creature beyond trying to escape. I'll try to think of one, unless someone comes up with something good. [/QUOTE]
