GM GUIDANCE
Remember that most people are not soldiers, criminals, or heroes.
Fill settlements with ordinary citizens living believable lives.
Busy markets, schools, cafés, repair shops, public parks, hospitals, transit stations, and apartment buildings make the world feel alive.
The extraordinary stands out because everyday life continues around it.
