[QUOTE="Nagol, post: 5395780, member: 23935"] My playgroups do it reasonably frequently. In my current campaign, the players found and cleared a dwarven monastery around 4th level. There was an abandoned residential section with a lot of locked doors and they moved on to the next town vowing to return with a lock specialist, but got distracted. Around 7th level they returned to the monastery on a whim and discovered a ghost and a magical gate in the section they had previously explored. The gate connected to a “lost” dwarven city at the edge of the Underdark and the group arranged for friendly forces to take over the monastery. They’ve returned to the portal several times trying to explore the dwarven city with limited success. Now at 14th level, the monastery has been fought over a few times by different interested groups. It now houses the followers of one of the PCs and is being converted back into a functional dwarven settlement. The portal itself has been destroyed so access is through teleportation magic or a week’s walk in dwarven tunnels. There are other examples for the same campaign -- several attempts to penetrate a dense jungle only to retreat wait a level and try again (started at 4th, last attempt was at 10th) [/QUOTE]
