This is the link to the map of the Salt Lake Valley I'm using for my players for my campaign I'm starting:
http://static-sothebys-summitsir-production.gabriels.net/resources/v_3_9_3_12/siteresources/my%20folder/images/maps/salt-lake-valley-community-map.jpgThe game starts on April tenth, so after the players recover the MacGuffin on the first mission, new missions start with a new fixer, the Changeling Surge III that looks like a lizard man.
The background count is back to zero. FanPro's reasoning for it to be permanent mana ebb -3 was stupid. Here's some of the rest of the background I'm using:
Where everyone lives in Salt Lake City. I can't believe this, I'm Building the barebones of a supplement. Hurrah. Anyhow.
Lets start with Orcs and Trolls. They mostly live in the following suburbs: Magna, Kearns, South Salt Lake, and Millcreek. Along with humans.
Humans mostly live in West Valley City, Taylorsville, Midvale, Murray, Herriman, and Bluffdale. Dwarves are found in West Jordan, Magna, Copperton, Riverton, and Sandy. The Elves are found in Sandy, Draper, Cottonwood Heights, Holliday, and North Salt Lake.
Salt Lake City's government encourages education, so it's literacy rates tends to be higher than average in than in most parts in the PCC. Salt Lake City is the home of many respected companies including USANA Health Sciences and Adobe (which moved their offices to Salt Lake City after Crash 2.0).
The University of Utah has two departments dedicated to the study of Hermetic Thaumaturgy. One for Applied Thaumaturgy and the other for Theoretical Thaumaturgical studies. Most that graduate from the first usually are Awakened Magicians who find themselves work with respected Corporations. Those who study in the second field find little work and will usually find themselves teaching or working on ley lines feng shui.
Shamans
As for Shamans. They usually find a spirit or a shaman of themselves to teach them the ways.

The rest is for my eyes and players' eyes only.
