Now say that there are only ten such individuals in the game world. Finally, say that this number doubles each level down (e.g. there are twenty 19th-level individuals, forty 18th-level individuals, eighty 17th-level individuals, etc.). At that point, you can start allocating who the movers and shakers are, what they're doing and what goals they have, while also keeping some unassigned until you think they'd reasonably come up over the course of play, etc.</blockquote>
