[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 8563906, member: 29398"] In the case of Harry Potter the entire wizarding culture is completely removed from normal "muggle" culture - and that cultural removal is exactly what I'm getting at. We get to see Harry's adjustment from muggle culture to wizarding culture; but one of the things that makes him (and Hermione) unique is that even after that adjustment they can still relate to and function in muggle society, as opposed to most wizards to whom muggle society is at best a curiosity and at worst a threat. I very much don't want that sort of split between adventurers (especially at low level!) and general society in my D&D settings, and am annoyed that the modern game seems to want to bake such a separation in right from the get-go. Agreed 100%. :) [/QUOTE]
