Its partly due to the fact that I only allow PCs to gain magic items from NPCs with whom they have a relationship or can otherwise convince to grant them the boon (ie no magic shops) - so having a base means that the relationship with the NPC is already establishedI always tend to make the PCs members of some organisation (eg Guards employed by the Merchants guild, Agents of the Holy Church, Performers in the Grand Circus) or at least have them all coming from the same home town. This gives the PCs a base and the ability to rise in power if they so choose.In the past I've had PCs who were sent to establish a fortress against the invading humanoids, others who were leading a group of settlers to colonise a new land (and build a settlement), a few who decided to build their own Academy of Performing Arts, and one group who lead the survivors from an attack and have established an underground village.</blockquote>
