Two members of the party managed to impress Aldern, I can see him doing lust over one and I can see either envy or wrath from the other. I'm considering waiting to see if either of the two manages to trump the other to get his attention for Skinsaw, though it also occurs to me that another party member might get into the mix during that time as well.
I'm considering having him target one member for each sin (Lust, Wrath and Envy). Though I don't want to make it too easy for the party to realize that it must be Aldern that's behind it too soon. Anyone else tried this?
My players are very talkative as far as the npcs go and they innately distrust all the nobles. I'm having difficulty keeping them from visiting Aldern and I'm only on the first adventure.
We aren't through Burnt Offerings and the target of his affection Ferlanria (a fey druid) is already noticing small things missing. He was on her short list of suspects as far as she was checking. I had to insert a small boy into the Rusty Dragon hanging around her door calling her his girlfriend to throw off some suspicion because it was far too early.

I had a feyish druid set up for Lust, but then she died. In fact, all five female PCs died (including some which were new characters made by players with previously dead characters).
I decided a mixed bag like the one you suggest would be in order too (esp. since he had shown no real signs of Envy or Wrath at all in their first encounters with him). I had him dig up the object of his affection's corpse after it was buried at Sandpoint and raise her as his ghoulish bride, and then he began his Envy campaign against the Taldan noble barbarian, who Ven Vinder already disliked anyway thanks to Shayliss. Considering the PCs just learned from Tsuto and Nualia's defense attorney's research that the aforementioned Taldan noble PC is disgraced from his family due to losing control of his Rage, they began to question him somewhat as well. The undead former PC will also help explain why Aldern could take on Iesha's revenant if it comes to that. I've decreased the regular ghouls to compensate.
