Places of Note

The main plot of the campaign revolved around the encounters taking place in the great Houston-area. Although other cities, towns, and countries might be mentioned, there were beyond the scope of the campaign, and considered non-essential to moving the plot along. A map was created to give the players a visual aspect of where different adventures occurred. The characters had easy access to the major points on the map when using standard transportation, but over avenues of movement might be available depending on their abilities. All of the party members have lived here for many years, and have a basic familiarity to the area.
