Hey all, I recently started playing pathfinder and currently have a cleric of Iomedae in the Rise of the Runelords campaign (first book). Campaign spoiler alert!
So the problem is that even with the warnings of a good aligned cleric, 2 neutral characters continued to try and put a corpse onto an unholy shrine to an obviously un-aligned god while refusing consultation. The DM is adjusting the cavalier and sorcerers alignments to the corresponding "evil" side of the alignment chart for committing blatant disrespect and blasphemy, and poor role playing (the half orc got a slap on the wrist).
My first question is did the dm handle this appropriately? I think this is a satisfactory ruling for the moment while we bring them back to town for resurrection and judgement.
Secondly, what sort of trial should they be put to? For the halfing I would suggest drinking a pint of liquor, as Cayden's displeasure may make him sick when he drinks the alcohol (reference: Gods and Magic). The Sorceror I have no ideas for, as she has not really aligned herself with any god in a roleplaying aspect, so only lawful judgement would seem fitting, or maybe have her fate tied to the halfling.
Lastly, I am faithful to Iomedae's teachings, meaning I believe anyone can be redeemed, but was hoping there might be some good ideas within the mind of the community. What trials might they face to redeem themselves, possibly done as a side quest while the rest of the party finishes off the dungeon?
Any input and experience would be helpful; also, maybe important to note the player for the Cavalier IS a $#!t disturber and will be DM'ing the next part of the campaign.
