It could become a resilient portal that allows swarms of aberrations to enter Toril. I was jokingly pointing out that many players would likely attempt to find a way to wreak havoc in the Far Realms as a solution to the problem. An alternative would be finding out what makes the connection between the Far Realms and Toril possible, and sever it. It would be a truly difficult task, though: the very nature of the Far Realm hardly makes it a possible subject of study and investigation. If we look at the outer planes being ideas made substance, maybe the connection lies in some aspects of human/elven/etc mind, making it really hard to break. Either way, in such a campaign, I would create an alternative to offer to the players, other than ''put the Dragonborn souls into the wall, or face thousands Cthulhus''.</p></blockquote><p></p>
