[QUOTE="Gregor, post: 3704464, member: 11751"] Glad you like it, and after thinking about your point and some further thought, I agree that the cave probably could not support an ongoing conflict. Perhaps the activation of the portal requires the sacrifice of powerful-enough soul ... perhaps around the level 7 or 8 PC range? :) Or, perhaps the Aboleth has just found a soul strong enough, perhaps from somewhere else in the cave (Grimlock explorers from the underdark, other adventurers, etc.) and his Skum cultists are preparing to sacrifice him in area 11 which will bring forth the evil smack down. The PCs must learn whats going on and stop the sacrifice? Or maybe the sacrifice is done and the evil is awakening through the portal and is weak enough for the PCs to take it down? Ok, so what have we got so far: - Aboleth overlord - Enslaved cultists (perhaps now Skum with some class levels - cleric) - a portal to some evil far realm and possibly some creepy evil thing. - maybe some undead / traps in the old temple chambers (long dead cultists / adventurers?) How do we work in the sphere of annihilation / decanter of endless water equilibrium thing? Is that still a good way to go? [/QUOTE]
