[QUOTE="Garthanos, post: 7857620, member: 82504"] For me that implies no actual wizards/bards/clerics (or even Warlord historians) who are educated types adventuring. And that really was the point of some of these classes in legend and history for some of them collecting and propagating lore is the ancient bards middle name. Though they didnt write things down they memorized by rote early on and they were their cultures trusted historian teachers. Basically the classes most likely to have these skills are the ones who are most likely to have the background of exposure to what you just decided does not exist. No you're not wrong just saying that there is every bit of reason for those to actually exist if the world is anything like the default assumptions and though in the real world this stuff well isn't real and the stories are more embellishments than anything in one where it is real that lore would be way more vital to have distributed and I think probably would be more real too. (but then again the real world has anti-vaxxers who think some starlet knows more than scientists) so I am just putting out why your context may not be the assumed one for most other people. You not letting them know anything seems wrong I suggest you warn people to be honest I would not assume a Bard would ever be as ignorant as your rulings make them out to be. [/QUOTE]
