    Still trapped in the extra-dimensional mansion, the party waited hoping the trap would reset itself and allow them to escape.

    Finding maps of the region with the bodak’s treasure, the party decided to explore the perimeter of the Nightcrawler’s prison to make sure any locks, traps and protections were still in place before deciding what to do from there. On the way, the party had a rough go of it in a room with magical...

    We usually play 5-6 hours per session. They've really started going up very fast the last six or seven sessions due to the fact they have been adventuring in sections that are a good 4-5 levels above the suggested levels for the party (ie: region J is suggested for levels 13-15 but they were...
