[QUOTE="kigmatzomat, post: 2712742, member: 9254"] That is a reflection of your base assumptions about the power level of the game. Which is neither good/bad/right/wrong but it does imply you think 12-13th level characters are [i]worthy[/i] of having strongholds simply by dint of their deeds. IMC if you make friends with the nobility and fight several (public) battles for good, gods & country you might be granted lands and the right to build a fortified structure around 15th level or so. Organizations are different and a cunning individual can start agitating for that at much lower levels. I try to introduce new monsters at higher levels simply to keep up the mix; running a campaign with a "chaos land" helps out a bit on that front. Class levels aren't that bad as long as you don't go PrC crazy. I try to come up with a theme for my classed NPCs and grab the most common appropriate classes. Using PCGen doesn't hurt much either, especially when it comes to spell selection for casters and applying magic items. [/QUOTE]
