[QUOTE="Levistus's_Leviathan, post: 8654501, member: 7023887"] I never said anything about "historical". Yeah, it kind of does. I need to know how many people live in a city/town in order to properly run it. I don't need it to say that its population is exactly 1,034,791, but I do need to know whether its population is in the hundreds of thousands or millions. Yeah. Leave the big hooks vague. Not whether the town is populated by Humans, Halflings, Elves, or Dwarves (or a mix of two). The book still has mysteries and vagueness. What are the Dwendalian Empire doing with the Luxon Beacon they stole and the newly discovered Dunamancy? What actually is the Luxon? What's with Aeor? Where are all of the Lesser Idols? What's Vecna up to now that he was banished and achieved apotheosis? How can the curse on the monstrous races be broken? What's up with Ruidus? What's up with that river of fire in Eiselcross? What's up with Tharizdun? What was the Age of Arcanum like? None of its mysteries are as major as Eberron's, but the setting is more like the Forgotten Realms than Eberron. But there still are mysteries. Just not simple ones like "who lives in this town"? [/QUOTE]
