Sacrifices in PF vs BoVD


Rules Questions


Are there rules or tables in PF for sacrifice rewards (for good creatures) like there were in the Book of Vile Darkness?

Some evil outsiders give a +2 on charisma checks when binding them for certain sacrifices. Generally devils will take a sacrifice for such a bonus.

In Book of the Damned Volume 2: Lords of Chaos, there are rules for a series of rituals that allow a mortal to (in order) swear their soul to a demonic patron/the Abyss, gain a demonic implant, become a half-fiend, and transform into a demon (keeping all class levels). Note that these "rituals" are actually special rites and vile actions (including evil plots and other acts that are not what many consider to be "ritual" acts) over the course of months or even years.

In Book of the Damned Volume 3: Horsemen of the Apocalypse, there are rules on binding, selling, and using souls ("The Soul Trade").


Looking more for rewards for a paladin slaying big baddies above his level.

Not that I know of, what were those in the BoVD?
