[QUOTE="Grogg of the North, post: 7021367, member: 6682960"] Clerics cannot be True Neutral unless their deity is. Barring house rules / setting differences. :) Pathfinder has a TN death goddess that you could maybe copy. But she and her clergy detest the undead. (It's considered cheating. ;) ) Wee Jas is all about law and order. She's also okay with undead that are willingly created. A mage turning himself into a mummy to guard a family crypt is okay. A farmer rising as a wight after being murdered in the night is not. A former adventurer coming back as a ghost to ensure his home's safety would be accepted by her. With that in mind, you could have your cleric worship Wee Jas. You could even make him/her Lawful Neutral. The undead that serve in his horde are volunteers from the village. The old, the infirm and the lame that still want to do something to protect their home. So once a year, at harvest time, the lord sends out wagons to collect offerings from the village. Foodstuffs, crops and a few volunteers to surge the undead that guard the valley. Have the PCs assist with the harvest collection to make sure that there are no problems. Once the PCs witness a few people saying good byes to their friends and family and getting on the wagons you can sit back and watch the PCs debate what to do next! I ran something similar in my last campaign. The PCs were trapped in a pocket dimension where they had to visit each season. Fall was harvest themed with a similar event happening. Instead of undead, I think I had the volunteers being turned into candy corn themed golems. :) It was great. The party split on the Law / Chaos axis and everyone argued over what to do! [/QUOTE]
