No, not that I remember... They ascended to become pure beings in heaven. They found these incredibly holy spots which ascended them, shedding their mortal bodies and all darkness. They of course, didnt know that by shedding their darkness they would actually create essentially, evil twins, who are twisted versions of the originals.
But nothing that I remember says that Satan tricked them into doing it... Satan's role was tricking Zobek into masterminding the events of LoS.
The Brotherhood saw all that would happen but for SOME reason, decided to go along with it anyway.
I suppose they figured it would be worth it in the end. Sacrifice one man's sanity and soul to eradicate 3 unholy beings, (even if it meant also destroying their heavenly counterparts, the founders of the brotherhood) AND get the man to kick Satan's ass nine ways to Sunday, and later only have 1 single unholy entity to take down. But they also underestimated the power Gabriel would attain I suppose. I mean, he defeated and obtained for himself the abilities of the Holy relics given to the 3 founders, (as well as the magic absorbing gauntlet of the Dark Knight Golem) became a full fledged Vampire by taking all of Laura's blood, (therefore skipping the usual process of starting as a level 1 nasty looking grunt) AND then absorbed the powers of an ancient and powerful giant demon whom the founders had sealed in another dimension, and whom even after they split themselves in two, Carmilla continued to make sure it stayed put.
And then had no doubt a good few years to let all that rage and anger stew and simmer for a bit.
IMO, the Brotherhood didnt QUITE think things through- ANY one mortal man who according to prophecies or magic mirrors, will have the power to go toe to toe with Satan and win? isn't someone you want to let become a monster.
