[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 2104311, member: 29014"] Well yes, but then we get the problem of our designers clashing with each other about it. If most of us think that there are only 2000 wizards in Eyros and then someone posts "House Malarn has a secret army of 50,000 wizards hiding under the library" this could be a problem. Also, the fact that you and I had such drastically different views about how many wizards were in Eyros is what I think partially led to your getting so mad about my Arcaneum clarification post, since I had thought that 20 wizards was a powerful number, and it seems like you were thinking that there were upper hundreds of them in the Arcaneum alone, since there were many thousands (tens of thousands?) throughout Eyros. Its always good when you can have harmony and prevent bad feelings like that, and that's what this understanding will do. In the end, we don't have to even write this down anywhere in the final PDF, allowing the DM to come to their own decision about specifics, but it is a useful tool for us to have in mind. Certainly it is good if everyone knows that Eyros's population lies in the low millions, rather than say, billions like modern-day China, since this could lead us to have dissonance in our perception of the world.
