Feats:

Heterodoxy
Choose one of your Alignment's commandments. You no longer make Alignment Checks for breaking it.

Heteropraxy
When every you perform a Stunt to break a Heterodoxy commandment, gain a point of Resolve.

Vile Pact
Choose a devil of your Alignment, and change your Alignment to it. When using a feat or spell that involves Resource points, you may instead spend Resolve equal to the level of the Magic School or Class in which you received that ability. Failed Alignment checks automatically cause Degeneration.

Serpent's Tongue
You may spend a resource point to gain the feat Peer (Any) until the end of the scene.

Gifts of the Gods
You may spend a resource point to invert the effects of a single Degeneration, turning all negative modifiers into positive modifiers. Buying Devotion costs double the normal amount of XP.

You know, getting -1 to Alignment checks didn't sound like a good thing until Gifts of the Gods. Now it sounds rad.

What does 'devil of your Alignment' in Dark Pact mean? Like a relatively minor daemon that serves another god?

I'm glad you asked.

I think Tested should be optional here. Unsanctioned sorcery and all that jazz.

Maybe. Especially since anybody who would be in charge of sanctioning hates them.

Changing the prereq to Decipher Glyphs for now, then

"Vile Pact."
Sure

Also note that Vile Pact is an optional feat, despite being the requirement for Level 4. A lot of the previous feats were included solely to give the Apostate as many multiclassing opportunities as possible, since being a devil's plaything isn't everyone's cup of tea.
