[QUOTE="Destil, post: 3441385, member: 1980"] Actually, I think this is about the single most misunderstood aspect of Ebberon. Is is not 'high' magic. It's broad magic. Anyone above 11th level is very rare, spellcasters more so. There's a lot more low level magic, because of artifactors, magewrights and dragonmarks (anyone else allow dragon spell like abilities marks to count towards item creation?). But anything above the ability of a 5th level wizard / cleric should be pretty uncommon. Anything above level 11-12 should be legendary. Actually, everything I know about the middle ages goes against what I would consider a fun campaign setting to play in. A real, highly feudal society would be pretty culturally stifling, as far as I'm concerned. If I wanted to play something with some historical accuracy I'd most likely go back to the classical age, as that would suit adventuring a bit better. Most ignorance is willful ;) Likewise love this. I've toned down hobbies, brought gobbies up to snuff and would allow a bugbear as LA+1, though I wish these were presented as playable races in the ECS. Good one, Ari.
