I mean sure, could do that too. I’d rather just…have a revolution about it, though. In terms of playing in the setting.
I even have a character ready, a tinker and writer, revolutionary and admirer of pretty married noblewomen, with some inspiration from the Hamilton of the musical, but also her own story as a Netherese refugee with mixed feelings about so-called heroes who topple nations in their grudge matches and quietly retire to their peaceful Dales.
“…We are, meant to be
City-states runnin independently.
Meanwhile, the Chosen interfere with us endlessly.
Essentially, they rule us relentlessly
And Elminster turns the Netherese into refugees
They ain’t ever gonna set their “dependents” free, so there will a revolutions in this century.
(Enter me) she says in parentheses”
Is it bad parody? Yerp, but it’s fun. [emoji28]
