If they f***ed around with all the outsiders like this, this would make a little more sense, but just understanding how the diabolists play politics and pit fiends (pun not intended) against each other is too much for me. How would you, as a DM, deal with a player who tried to use outsiders like this? Supposedly, he could get off scott-free and leave various archdevils and demon princes trying to figure out who has ownership rights over some-random-NPC-who-didn't-do-anything's soul.
2) Also, how would a student at the Lyceian (the afore mentioned magic school) find out about and study the Diabolist's tradition (or any other questionalbe, illegal, place/group a PC or NPC suspects is there, but of course the place/group can't advertise their hideout's location.)?
