Some of you may have noticed some random town poping up around the map. Each one of those towns has the potential to guide a party to a new instance. Each town will have the ability for the party to RP a bit and using that gain information about the instance including it's location. I ask that if you enter a village you let me know and I'll handle the RP in the city either over the forums or in roll20. Note that sharing information gained in the village will expose you to getting your instance stolen by another party and it will not be available for a few weeks to a month depending on the difficulty of the instance.
How you RP the village will give you different bonuses to the instance, I will just leave it at that and let your imagination guide you.
Rules of instancing will come next week when the first groups begin to enter them.

But these instances are meant to take more than 1 day Camping in the dungeon is encouraged so that a party may recover and continue on. Leveling will not occur the same day that the experienced is gained but rather at the end of each day in game the characters will be allowed to level.
You may flee from a partially done fight and return be the monsters will heal as they would naturally that is to say 1hp per hd.
I am doing my best to give items related to the dungeon itself, and being level appropriate. For example there is a dungeon out there that will give pages to a golem manual based off of how hard the dungeon is and the manual cost/100 is how many pages you will need to make it.
You are able to RP your way through as long as you are able to back it up with a skill roll.

I think that leveling up should be done outside the instance. Also I don't know how time rolls within the instance. Was there going to be an 'instance server' or a Combat Instance as to not monopolize the game board for others on a particularly long multi-encounter Instance?
By the way great work on getting them done I'm sure that many more players will join now that there are actual 'dungeons' to go explore.

After talking it over with people, dungeons should not scale and how it is for the first group is how it will be for everyone, as such I am retracting my rule for first time scaling, but of the instances on the map at least half are lvl appropriate for a group of lvl 2's.
Time will work as the party sorta decides, if they need to stop and recoup spells, heal up that will be considered camping and will start the next day.
