[QUOTE="Bawylie, post: 7592268, member: 6776133"] That’s interesting. I often find that to be too much of a constraint. Because there IS a “right” answer to unexpected questions and if I wanted to give it, I’d have to go and look it up. But this largely depends on the amount of adventure backstory provided. A single sentence serves well, more than that I feel is useless fluff. I can use something like “Once the forge of a legendary smith (name or deed), the fires have since cooled and now the abandoned fort serves as a nest for vipers and stalking shadows.” But to include say dates of building, a complete biography of the smith, or tales of the mighty weapons and armor that came from that forge would be too much IMO. Ultimately, I don’t want to pay for that kind of content. It strikes me as “filler.” And I don’t like the use of 30 sentences when 3 are sufficient. Of course, tastes vary. [/QUOTE]
