    Whatever kills Belkar, Mr. Scruffy will have to replace his Humanoid Companion (Ex). Again.

    Yeah, I realized it shortly after I posted it, but by then it was already too late.

    Perhaps his darkest day would be whenever he has some serious introspection and realizes the hurt he has caused?

    Indeed. The Oracle said that he should savour his next birthday cake. The little kobold bastard wanted to ensure Belkar suffers full shock value and dies.

    Belkar will intentionally stand between someone more necessary to the success of the plan than himself and The Snarl, and will thus be unmade. He will be redeemed in the same instant he is destroyed, and will have no afterlife and no possibility of returning to life, but because of his action success will be made possible for the Order.

    I like the undead idea, but I'm leaning toward Belkar being the one who bites the vampire and takes over its consciousness
    "For you see, I theorize that the halfling does not possess a true sentient brain, like you or I, but rather a simple lump of nerve tissue that serves as a primitive "proto-brain" that can only process two emotional reactions to people: Hate or Lust."

    My idea was to link the dying thing with the cake thing (which would be a very oracle thing to do: advice him to savor his birthday cake, and that cake being the killer)...

    ... but I really liked this one:
