[QUOTE="kigmatzomat, post: 9609218, member: 9254"] My group definitely does. [LIST] [*]Are there actual clerics here or non-caster priests? Does our cleric out rank them?

[/LIST] For me, going through the exercise of deciding what was "reasonable" for various communities helps me make quick decisions better. We all have biases and making conscious decisions in advance tend to mitigate those biases. One GM may go over the top and wind up with every hamlet having a 6th level priest while another may knee-jerk say no to things and wind up with a Metropolis without a 2nd level wizard. [/QUOTE]
