[QUOTE="Altalazar, post: 16848, member: 939"] I really think it just depends on your flavor of campaign how this will affect it. In my world, there were thirteen great cities, spread out across the continent, as part of a vast empire. The cities were connected by large teleportation gates that anyone could use - there was even a book of ettiquette published about manners while doing so. Without such a connection, such an empire could never exist - it would be too vast to control or even travel easily. And it didn't last - the power of the magic used in this great empire attracted a strange and alien race from another plane that is particularly attracted to concentrations of magical power. The race, known as the Ryla, came and attacked the empire - the Ryla were defeated, because the power of the Empire was organized and vast, but it did give them second thoughts about using so much magic. Later, other forces toppled the empire, and now the great cities are in ruins, long forgotten, but some of those gates between cities still work... So rather than gripe about it, build a history around it. ;) [/QUOTE]
