However, it is possible to keep a nice game in which they are equals to Rary, Mordeinkainen, and the Mage of the Valley. They would be ploting with or against those high-level characters and interacting in higher level with Iuz and Vecna. This could be a nice game. Why not? Would be the same happen in the Realms. Perhaps, but a friend of mine is betting that when the Epic Level book comes out, they will raise Elminster level above to the maximum covered in that book. It may be a joke, but it is how many people fell about those high level characters.Ok, but from what I heard of the Epic book, this will fail to bring my money to Wizards. I prefer HERO to play Superheroes.You're right. However, it will not fit in everybody style. That's much about the problem with this discussion.Personally, I think that the LGC have done right in not detailing the NPCs. To know that Mordenkainen, Rary, and the Mage of Valley are level 20+ wizards is suficient to know that they are big movers. I don't need to know every single detail about their character sheet. Their personalities and long term objectives would be more useful. I open the FRCS and Elminster stats are placed in focus. It appears that the setting is more about the NPCs than the players' characters. I cannot agree with that.</blockquote>
