From the descriptions of Solace in the War of Souls trilogy, it seemed as if the place had a population of a few thousand, what with all the refugees pouring in after Haven was attacked by Beryl. It seems a little incongrous then that Solace is described as a Village of 500+ (In the DMG a village has a population of 401 to 900 people). From all the novel evidence it would seem to be larger, what does everyone else think?

notice the entry for sad town? Solace has a permanent population of 500 or so. the rest of the transients live in the tent city, where the population fluxuates.

btw, i gather you just got the dlcs? =)

Yes, I've had the DLCS for a grand total of 3 days. :D

Yeah, I saw the Sad Town entry, but I still had the impression that Solace's permanent population had grown considerably (even absent the refugees). Ahh well.

I'm glad it hasn't. Frankly, Solace doesn't the means to support a city, nor the resources. They have no port, no mines, or anything else, and Haven is already the large industrial center for the region.

Frankly, I'm going to empty out Sad Town into Qualinesti... Olvelund has a nice ring to it doesn't it? New Thread!
