    At the end of the campaign I have written the BBEG (just a guy tbh) is meant to fall off a cliff into a vat of “godly essence” and magical artifacts. The next campaign opens on him crawling out of the pit as a a lich powered by these artifacts looking for vengeance.

      Like some ungodly cross between The Lich from Adventure Time and The Master from Fallout.

      This idea has some serious legs if you commit to it

      how are you gonna get the vat of godly essence out of the party’s inventory after they tear down every inch of the dungeon and design a crane system to recover it

        Each of the artifacts fits into a puzzle for a machine that turns normal people into “gods”. My end game is have them use those items to reverse the process on the created god in the first place making them human again. This drains the essence into the machine and i’m hoping enough damage is taken on the machine thatbit explodes during final combat or is pushed off the cliff or something. I’m happy to yadda yadda to get to the cut scene lol!
