[QUOTE="Nightfall, post: 3550449, member: 374"] *guessing four* *now found out this is probably five if not six* Ry, Any chance you could site a specific example of that? I mean I do get what you're saying generally (more commonality between the countries and their respective leaders about issues they face), but I'm a little unclear about any notable NPCs beyond Yugman and a few others that might need a little "tweaking" Hstio, I have tried doing a wiki for the Scarred Lands. Unfortunately I was the only one that showed up! :p ;) In any case the lack of web support is something I plan to address too once I get the Scarred Lands Revised Campaign setting up for public viewing. Jd, Like Fru and the others have echoed, the Player's Guide are kind of splat oriented. However there's way more fluff to it than what you might find even in the Complete series. Indeed I like to think the Complete series is complimentary to the Player's Guides, especially since they deal with how each class can be retooled in some way to be more SL specific. Strange Lands, Edge of Infinity, Shelzar, City of Sin, and probably Creature Collection 3 is 3.5 oriented. Also as stated by some there are some wonkified miscues that the editing people missed, but considering the department only had a few people working on it, it's not that bad. There is info on how each class might have come to be, such as the creation of paladins, the beliefs of various druids sects, sorcerers and their bloodlines, bardic music alternatives, Wizardry versus Sorcery, (or as I like to think of it, the Art versus the Craft) Rangers that were originally servants of druids, and barbarians as spiritual peoples. Monks also get a nice treatment too, detailing their Hedradan roots and possible training methods done by a half dragon servant of Hedrada. That good enough SL detail for you? ;) Mazat? I must have missed him...but to my knowledge there is no additional background if it's not listed there. Where ever there is. ;) [/QUOTE]
