I see no real reason to assume that rape would cause chaotic results, like turning the assaulter into a broo. In extreme cases, like when the victim is also killed or driven insane etc., there might be a chance of a succubus forming. But as Ikadz is chaotic, and a god of torture, the most pious Uroxi cheerfully torture their enemies, not to talk of the Zorak Zorani anti-chaos practices on the unfortunate caught broo...

Same might apply to both situations. If you 'roll a critical' on your Torture-skill, you do not only get a skill check, but the poor victim's done with a style. His spirit might end up in some infernal hell, or as the Kaurmeinyan version by Loren Miller suggests, is forever freed from all needs, and can be free of pain, forever content.
