As long as it's amicable, it's cool with me.  I've always liked the idea of
people getting historically-accurate stigmata (that is, through the wrists
instead of the palms -- I heard once that real crucifixions went through
the wrists because the hands couldn't support much weight, which seems
reasonable).  The concept of hangman stigmata -- heavy bruises around the
neck? -- is interesting.  Someone genuinely has a mystic connection but
can't understand it because of clouded history, while the guy with
hysterical bleeding through his palms knows exactly what he THINKS is
happening...

I believe that this was the main plot for the movie Stigmata. That's where I learned that the nails went through the wrists. It is a good movie to see if you want to run a scenario like that.
