But woodsier. Wit's End seems like a carnival funhouse to outsiders, but that's just a passive form of defense for the gnomes.They're the core dieties I like, with an eye towards the more practical ones, like Estanna, who's from the Book of Exalted Deeds and is a goddess of hearth and home.The baron has one of those in Middleborough. I'm building this using A Magical Medieval Society: Western Europe, and that was one of the things that jumped out at me.Yeah, I'm taking those distances from MMS:WE, but I'm not happy with them myself. I want the communities to be reachable, but I have all sorts of nasties in the woods, including river trolls, talking spiders and (no, seriously) the Big Bad Wolf/Warg. I want there to be frenzied carriage rides through the darkened forest but I also don't want to force the players to have to afford horses at a low level.I'll probably multiply all distances by five.</blockquote>
