So my party currently includes a cleric of Nethys, and I'm a bit worried about what he's planning with some of the other party members. He, along with our alchemist and our barbarian, are saving for some item that would cost him 6,000 gold to make. He says it'll help the party, but he refuses to tell me and our sorcerer as we haven't converted to Nethys, which has got us kinda concerned (he's a bit pushier than most clerics of Nethys on converting people; I'm aware).
We pressed him a little bit, and when we asked if it was some kind of mind-control thing, he got dodgier than normal. So I'm a bit worried about that. The sorcerer would probably be okay, as she has a decent will save, but as a ranger, I'd be pretty well boned.
So my question is: what kind of item might he be crafting for 6,000 gold, and what would me and our sorcerer girl be able to do in preparation, in the event that it is a mind control thing?
Thanks in advance,
