Golarion Map and Lore "Unnamed Towns and Villages? Or only the ones listed..."


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


Ok so I am running a game... and I try to stick as close to the lore as possible but this has bothered me for a awhile, ENTIRE Frigging countries only having like 3 or 4 settlements... Last wall only has 1! ... Are there little unamed unmarked little towns and villages littering the landscape just not worth putting on a map? Am I free to add towns to the world without screwing over the lore of the world? Or is it just a fact that the world is mostly uninhabited? What if Iwant a village that has been massicured by some orcs... do I need to destroy a town in the world? Or can I create a new one just for my plot.

I am not talking about capital cities here, just little towns and fishing villages and farmer towns, I wouldnt dream of changing a countries capital or messing with something obviously stupid like that.


They are not listing the only settlements. Modules, APs, and future releases all "fill in the blanks" with new settlements and as you've correctly concluded, the nations are implausible if only the settlements listed are the only ones in existence. Most are listed because of their size (major cities & towns), strategic importance (port, crossroads, etc.), or adventuring value.
