The champion Briv has a legendary 'haystack' ability that allows him to literally skip over levels, crucial for endgame pushes.

Damage and health numbers scale so high they are calculated exponentially, easily reaching figures like e18 (a quintillion) and beyond.

Players can eventually unlock 'Modron Cores' which allow them to run up to three completely different adventuring parties simultaneously.

The game features champions originating from novels, video games, and popular live-play series across the D&D multiverse.
