Storyteller, let's say you want to create a city from scratch. You'll begin by whipping up a cast of inhabitants. They're the reason why towns exists in the first place: they're spots where your characters might congregate, interact, and develop their own narrative trajectories.

They've need to maintain your interest while you're bringing them to life.
