I shoulda known, as adventuring in the planes always sucks

Actually you'd hate the Isle of Dread. Horribly unfair module, trust me, I've gone through it as a player in table top. PCs of about your level, fighting dinosaurs, a green dragon, and mind-controlling mudmen.

The point wasn't just to challenge you, it was a parody of a classsic inexperienced DM mistake.

Paul, as of 2.15.06, you have done the following:
1) went into the temple, fought some undead
2) returned to temple, killed death knight, died
3) hung out in Hello Airport

The dearth of excitement and levelling is only partially the DM's 'fault', and is strongly correlated with the dearth of substantial posting by PCs.

But I hear your complaints- hard not to- and next module will be back to basics.
