 So i've been playing the backer beta of pillars of eternity, and one of the most OP builds is a bard who can summon skeletons. Just fyi.

My "Cave on the Borderlands" campaign petered out due to two of the players having kids at around the same time, so I'm working on putting together a 4e X-Crawl campaign. The problem is I can't seem to come up with a good overarching plot/framing device. I want there to be some kind of ongoing... something happening in between the dungeon crawl, and I keep being dissatisfied with everything I come up with.

If I can't figure out something, eventually I think I'll can it for now and maybe try to run something unrelated with one of the various Gumshoe-engine games.
In addition to volunteer professionals like (some of?)the PCs, more and more people are being forced to compete due to increasingly draconian laws- people who might otherwise resist the regime. Rumors persist of new 'megadungeons' which could hold contestants for years. Rumor also has it that the famed but reclusive xcrawl recruiter 'Toro G' is actually some kind of fallen elder god who is drawing power from the crawls to fuel his re-ascendance.
