About the game
This expansion contains all the characters from the base game, the Council, and from the Depths of Damnation, the Old Gods, Mountain of Torments, and Forgotten Guardians expansions, all re-illustrated by artist Nicolas Roblin and each character slightly changed from their original. They may have different starting stats, and they will have one of their skills reworked! They come from an outer world, after all. Beyond the Portal also includes two new characters: The Occultist and her soul syphon, and the Tinkerer and his skill to disarm traps!
