06-07-07, 11:32 PM Hey everyone, first time actually trying to create my own campaign, and having a few problems. One of the things I am planning is to have a nation of mages. I had a bit of a problem with the capital. I was thinking of maybe having a single tower, as neutral grounds for the mage's council to meet, instead of having an actual capital city. What do you all think?

Either we are talking extradimensional rooms here or there has to be some sort of support system. Maybe have all the service levels and servant quarters in underground levels?
