I like this latest idea Mace! and much better than the one that I was originally going to use. Will have more questions for you when I get home from work and can look up some of these. Any more expounding on this would be really appreciated. I think I am going to use the hunted individual to hook in my three paladins.

I'll answer as best I can (which usually is pretty good  ).

I like Mace's idea about half-fiends/tieflings in the village. Perhaps they are hidden somewhere else (your main villain's lair?) so that their presence is not revealed until later?
Maybe they are only a few tieflings, and the rest (or at least the most) of the villagers are Thralls to Demon, or just good-old plain demon-worshippers? Maybe they see the tieflings as "Blessings" from their god's (Demon Lord's) divine agent?
Another thought - maybe the main villain in this adventure is a priest of Gargauth, whom is served by a succubus? And the succubus ("Lady of the Wood" to the villagers) mates with village's males in the nearby woods/cave/etc.? (or even in a secret temple/shrine?) |

I have to admit, I don't like the idea of a whole demon worhipping village. This is too dark. One such person would be fine, but the others should be terrible afraid of the nether world activities, and also to afraid to talk about it. This would create much more tension
If the whole village worships demons, what would hinder the party to burn the village and slaughter all citicens? (Especially if there is no good in the village anyway to preserve! - let's face it, even the children are half fiends and the parents breed demons in the world) |

| If it is forced worship, and the people trudge to the altar yada yada it would be an entirely different ballgame |
