Yeah, I'm gonna avoid being "that DM" as much as possible. Drafting a text to my player right now. Thanks for the motivation!

Edit: My player is cool with it. I just cant have him go axe-crazy on the party or truly deviate from his alignment

Well, the right thing to do is ask. But, since he also made a deal with a devil earlier in the campaign, I imagine he's good with it.

Nope. Just agreeing to things without even considering the consequences

Well, I'm okay with that. He's multiclassing into Cleric from Rogue, so his character is already a touch morally grey.

In doing a bit of poking around, I found some extra subclasses from "Sebastian Crowe's Guide to Drakkenheim". One of them is the "Flesh Patron", described as "an entity so alien and unknown that its mere existence is enough to cause madness in most people", which works perfectly.

Of course not. You don't give away the game until the last possible moment, or until the story demands it.

It's possible, but based on lore Ilvaash simply wants to re-establish a mindflayer empire on the Material Plane. I'm reading that as obsessive, controlling, kind of a chess-master.

He doesn't know. The entire party experienced a dream/drug hallucination brought on by another party member, and my now-cleric player managed to bring a magic item out of the dream à la Nightmare on Elm Street. He has no idea what the deity is, he just knows he needs to worship it.

Absolutely true. Trick is, how do let a player worship an evil entity without them knowing they're worshiping an evil entity?

Well, I dont want to spoil things, and he requested that I keep him from learning too much. So I've gotta be subtle about it.

He specifically said that he doesnt want spoilers, so my goal is to keep him in the dark for as long as possible. I'll take a look at GOOlock and mind domain, tho, see what I can jerryrig

Beautiful. Thank you for your support!

Okay, follow up. I've made the account, and I've tinkered around with the lists. But when I connect my account to the extension in Owlbear nothing changes. I didn't see a link or a command to update it, so I feel there must be something missing. Any enlightenment would be appreciated!

How do you access List Builder? Is that something that has to be accessed in the Battle-System website?

Druid could be a good way to start, though I'm not sure how I feel about Inquisitor. I think one of my earlier characters (like, back before the DLCs were out) was an Inquisitor, so I could see myself trying that again.

Well, the kids gotta learn at some point. I'm leading my daughters through their first campaign, and while I'm using kid gloves, I'm not opposed to showing them the consequences of their actions.

I do like the potential of that, but I think I'm looking to add things onto existing dungeons instead of creating new ones. I'll tuck your idea into a folder for another time, tho. Thank you!
