    The more I’m reading about it, the more I see Limbo truly is underutilized! I definitely agree with you. I really like your idea that the PCs could be dropped next to one of the major cities of Limbo, and then they can go through an arc that explores why the Gith PC was banished from Limbo, and help the character perhaps unlock some unique powers while they continue to grow and evolve as a more cohesive adventuring group. I’ll definitely try to keep up with this thread or make a new one to update when I finally implement this, after all the players still have to get to the Mines of Phandelver. Thank you!

    Adventure in Limbo

    Hey everyone! Just posting here to get any advice if anyone has run a similar campaign, but my group is just about to finish a modified version of The Lost Mines of Phandelver for 5e. One of the party is a githzerai who has lost their memory, and depending on the outcome of the fight, I was thinking of a portal to Limbo being created to where either the Black Spider escapes to or where the being behind the Black Spider is imprisoned. This would also allow the exploration of the githzerai’s backstory. Has anyone ever done sessions in Limbo? How hard would that environment be for 5 Level 6 characters? Is it a good place for an adventure to take place? Let me know if you have any tips!
