I was looking at the Heretic archetype for the inquisitor, and I thought of an interesting idea.
An inquisitor who slips into corruption or changes to a prohibited alignment loses all spells and the judgment ability. She cannot thereafter gain levels as an inquisitor until she atones (see the atonement spell description).
An inquisitor who becomes an ex-inquisitor can, with the GM’s permission, take the heretic archetype, replacing her class abilities with the appropriate archetype abilities.
Does this mean that it is possible to be a Heretic Inquisitor of an alignment different from their deity? I would love being able to play an inquisitor that had the same position as their deity on one alignment axis, but the opposite on another, like an LG inquisitor of Asmodeus.
While it does say you can make the substitution, the Heretic archetype does not actually modify the rules for ex-Inquisitors, thus continuing to make you be unable to cast spells or use Judgment if you do not atone.
