[QUOTE="DM_Blake, post: 3928542, member: 57267"] I am curious to know why it needs to be cleaned up? As I see it, the Player group is not the only group of heroes in the world. There are other heroes. Some of those have fallen and will never be heard from again. Others, retired to a more stable lifestyle while they were still relatively obscure (hence the occasional level 5 retired fighter tavernkeeper, etc.). But some, a few, have risen to great fame (or notoriety) and are now legends througout the world. These few might be retired, or they might still be crusading to save the world some more. That doesn't mean they have to infringe on the PCs, or ever even cross their path. But I don't see why they need to be cleaned up. not from the Realms. Other campaign settings might only need one group of heroes. In those campaign settings, every single NPC can be common, ordinary, and not famous (although it's hard to imagine that the PCs can do something, specifically that they can rise to high levels and become famous, but no NPC could ever duplicate the success). But for the Forgotten Realms, the world is big enough, and the monsters numerous enough, to justify other heroes. [/QUOTE]
