The forgotten realms setting is there for me to steal things out of for my own game.
In my world there are legendary characters, those of my creation and the retired characters of six or eight players over the years. Some are even gods.
I think settings need these types of icons as something to aspire to when those highest levels are so far off and the trip looks daunting.
Even in 3e I prefer slow leveling. To me the lower levels are the most grounded in reality. Upper level play ( 13 and up) have a lot of issues with lack of content disruptive spell caster issues, ineffective monsters when the party nears 20.
God killers I call them. Although an army of slaadi gave them pause. And a demon prince earned XP from them when, as a group, they refused to oppose him. There might have been a forest full of dark elves there too, though.
