[QUOTE="Engilbrand, post: 4146494, member: 44184"] There are definitely some interesting ideas that people have. It's easy to see how one could move from one area to another as one increases in level. To answer some questions about my area: While I have things fleshed out, I thought that I'd leave some things to other DMs to decide on. For mine, the roads leading from the fountain are perfectly straight to each of the towns. While the road isn't necessarily cobbled, wear doesn't seem to persist for long. People lived at the ends of the roads because that's where people had always lived. Plus, each of those areas is within close proximity to something else that they would want easy access to. The woods within the pentagram, as I said, are not wild. They always seem to be abundant in game and have fruit trees and healing plants within. Whenever someone has tried to plant one of these at home or in the wild, though, they've never been able to grow right and end up tasting strange. There are freshwater wells in each town that give people quite a bit of good water. There are also people in each town who are given the job of taking numerous empty barrels to the fountain every two weeks and filling them. When they return, the village has quite a bit more water. Each village goes at a different time so that there is no overlap. Possible plot hooks: Some monsters in the area start to get desperate and decide that they want the water and don't care about the Bountiful Forest. The towns have to do what they can to protect their way of life. A mysterious man shows up in one of the towns at the same time that the water stops flowing from the fountain. Who is he, and is he connected? An upstart "Empire" arrives in Moor and starts talking about garrisoning the villages and brining Five Point into the "Empire". The towns don't like this idea.
