They locked themselves in the chamber of the Orc adept (in the Mountain Door) and rested there for two days until the cleric got them all back to full HP (but now they're out of cure scrolls and potions). Now they're vanturing back into Trog territory (the trog leader assigned the females to stand watch, but they managed to slay two of them before they raised the alarm, so the next session will start with thick combat!).Adding another PC isn't an option (the players of the ranger and cleric are married and have a kid, so they have precious little opposrtunities to play, and to add another person in the mix isn't gonna work, schedule-wise; the wiz/rogue is my wife, so it's easy for us to arrange time to play). They really don't like NPCs in the party (it was a relief when Erky Timbers left, even though he lend quite a hand in Sunless Citadel).The "Fourth PC" spot is kinda supplied by the wolf, who has a decent attack and damage (specially with Improved Trip). But not quite.What get me very worried are the roper, the Wis-draining undead, the wight (negative levels?) and of course, the black dragon...One thing that occured me is to make the Trog leader's brestplate magical (+1), so it will  boost the ranger's AC without making that encounter more difficult. And adding some healing potions here and there (probably in the trog lair).And after that, I am thinking of cooking up a Prestige Class that allows the ranger and wiz/rogue to continue their careers while adding more "punch" (the wiz doesn't want to sacrifice the spellcasting in order to have more rogue abilities, and the ranger doesn't want to multi into fighter just to get more HP and feats, since it doesn't add flavor... And Arcane Trickster and the PrC from MotW are terrible!)Thoughts?</blockquote>
