When I wing it I have in place a huge body of information on how the people in a region are supposed to think and act and I can use that to put together appropriate stereotypes that are consistant and feel like 'real' people with 'real' concerns. It's largely why I also like Kalamar. They've paid the same kinds of attention to all the 'background noise' that give DMs the tools to wing it with consistancy.I don't try to memorize all this culture information. Rather I try to ;earn it until I have an emotive feel for the people in question, the region, or whatever the relevant subject matter is. Get myself not to where I can quote facts, but to where I can sense stereotypes.</blockquote>
