I'm making a cleric of Sifkesh, female, probably Tiefling with the Vassal archetype. She's hiding her true allegience and intends to corrupt a paladin and cause him to fall and kill herself as per her Sif'keshs desires.
What items and spells/domains should I be into? Is fiendish vassal into Demoniac worth it? Any tips on my task?
Why does everyone set out to make the Paladin fall :(
Anyway, I hope she doesn't intend to..you know, do that Obedience every day in front of the Paladin, which might give the game away a little early. If shes doing a ritual suicide every single day, any PC member is going to get suspicious, so you would need to find a way to avoid awkward moments of someone walking in on you. Anyway, I would pick up spells like Undetectable Alignment, Mind Blank and so on, just to fox Detect Evil and other basic divination spells. I don't have a lot of ideas on how making the poor guy fall because I don't have much information on the campaign (nor am I really sure its a good idea setting out to make a Paladin fall).
I hope the Paladin isn't a party member...
If the Paladin is a party member you should just stop right now.
No one likes to play with a "Gotcha", and thats exactly what you're intending to set up. If the paladin is a NPC and you are in an evil party it doesn't pose such a problem, but if your talking about another player's character this is a terrible idea and if I were the player I would be none to happy with you.
The main thing is to have any chance at corrupting the paladin you need to actually get by long enough without him noticing you're evil which means not doing anything obviously evil until he trusts you. It also means being able to hide you alignment for which you will need something to avoid divinaiton, which the paladin can pull out at any time.
Its an NPC travelling with us. We're evil, generally, and he's supposed to be bringing us to justice. Instead of kill him outright, I figured this would be more interesting.

What do you mean by "bring you to justice"? If he already knows your evil or that you are committing crimes you're probably not going to get him to soft convert to team evil. If this is the case torture and the infliction of pain are likely the only methods of causing him to covert.
