I am towards the end of running Shackled City and there's a half mile radius dimensional lock inside one of the final dungeons (probably intended as a plot device to keep the PCs and NPCs from just teleporting in or out). But perhaps in a moment of oversight, the adventure describes one of the NPCs having phase door prepared in order to escape to another room and regroup if the fight is turning against him. Just knowing the way my PCs work (much like a blunt instrument without much foreplanning), I doubt they will find a quick way to incapacitate the guy. So unless they get a lucky crit or manage to get set up for a full attack (in which case several of them can do serious damage), the NPC will likely resort to that tactic. But my PCs are well aware of the dimensional lock effect (much to the chagrin of the heir of House Orien). They know the rules well enough that they might start crying foul if I allow such a thing to happen. The wizard never fails to roll spellcraft when the bad guys cast a spell. So I want to know if I should come up with a contingency plan or just swap the spell for something else (like limited wish) or let the guy die.</blockquote>
