I remember reading a thread about a Harn city described as a busy port that had a population of 800. There is usually a 10-1 ration of rural to urban, which would mean big cities like Waterdeep would be surrounded by villages numbering a million people, which I feel doesn't get addressed very...

I disagree with this. I think a lot of unpleasant characters get labeled Evil when they should be Neutral. I often see characters described as "they're evil, but they only hurt people that deserve it", which is not a definition for evil that I would use. To me, evil explicitly does evil acts to...

I thought it was fine. They leaned more into fantasy over realism, but this isn't too unexpected, as this is more an age of legends that the LotR setting.

Voted Birthright, but Gothic Earth from Masque of the Red Death would also have gotten my vote.

I wouldn't do instakill or HP bypassing lethal attacks vs characters. HP represent the heroicness of the character, that touch of skill or destiny that sets them apart. A drop of the assassin's sweat awakens the character at the last moment, the character's clothing protects them from the flame...

It's a "5 minute scene" character. You added a lot of alignment definitions that had zero bearing on the question, and on the part that did answer- they were the same. In fact, I bet at least 2/3 of the alignments would all "feel empathy for the victims", so alignment choice didn't actually...

What's the difference between how a NG and CG character views a string of murders based solely on alignment?

But, using the term "bartender" would also give a clue to the NPC's disposition and how it would behave in a roleplaying or combat situation. No need to determine how he views Cosmic Order of Everything.

I would rather flesh out the religions or orders the characters belong to, rather than just paint everything with a generic brush. And if you do too, then why do you need the generic brush?

Which just proves how alignment can be interpreted differently in every edition of the game, making it an exceedingly poor descriptor.

Well, the LG paladin (according to Gygax) HAD to commit "war crimes" or he would lose his paladinhood for performing a NG act, until he atoned.

I'll apply it to Solidarity, thank you very much!

Is it usual for invisible creatures to use a gaze attack? Wouldn't the party just not see them, and be unaffected?

My orcs are based off the Aztecs. They came from across the sea and had conquered a good part of the land, but were driven off a few hundred years ago. They are roughly based on the kosan from Nyambe d20.
