I assume that there is a reasonable baseline percentage for each level (perhaps this is a Normal Distribution situation; I couldn't say). What changes between a 20 level spread and a 6 level spread?
Before I am told to RTFM:
I'm not interested in a precise calculation taking environmental factors into account, or of regional figures. It is not unreasonable to have an approximation of how many 6th level characters there areThe Tomes wrote:the population density overall has little relevance to the number or level of powerful characters
in a region. Indeed, some of the harshest environments have only highly leveled characters in them.
The deeper you go into Moil or the Banemires, the less likely you are to run into a humanoid, and the more
likely any humanoid you do meet is to be a total badass. So I’m sorry, there isn’t a simple rubric to determine
the highest level character in a region or the level spread of said characters (indeed, Necromancers persist
notably longer when they become more powerful and the level distribution is a reverse bell-curve with a local
minimum at 6th level). It would be nice to say that there was, but that just isn’t so.
