If so what exciting thing happened to you?  Do you know anyone who still lives there?Player A- No, my character has only ever heard tales of this town and some of it's history.Player B- My druid trained in the nearby forest, where the stone circle is we would trade with the local farmers.Player C- My character passed through here two years ago and had to leave in a hurry after being caught by the mayor in bed with both his daughters.  I think he will wear his cloak pulled up over his head, our visit should be brief.Player D- Hey wait a minute, my uncle is the mayor!</blockquote>
