Baltimore

So since the official city for the RPG is Baltimore, does that mean the official band of the RPG is Baltimora? I just heard Tarzan Boy while flipping on Sirius and I would love an excuse to torture players with that, especially since I had to hear it. Seriously, I am going to have Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-o-ooo-aaa in my head for days now.

Every time I hear that song I think of the Listerine  commercial that used it. Now I'll have that tune in my head all day, too.  :P

We would make it official, but it's place in history is now tied to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III.

idk, maybe i'm missing something.  why is the city of focus baltimore instead of chicagoland?  i mean, why make such a change?  that's almost like hearing that the did away with dresden's staff and blasting rod in place of a hockey stick and drumstick.

one of the focal points behind the series is that chicago is the  unnoficial hub of the world, if not the united states.  hell, o'hare still holds the title of busiest airport in the world.  combine the two and you have the biggest reasoning behind the massive amounts of bad ju-ju behind the dresden files.

maybe it's because new england is much older and therefor more spiritually "charged" than chicago, idk.

could someone help me find the light on this one?

Jaroslav:
It is Baltimore instead of Chicago, because chicago has already been fleshed out. It would be easy to make a game in chicago just using the books already out there. Having Baltimore as the main city for the game allowes them to make up a new envirment and try new ideas.

By the way just because it is the signature city that does not mean Baltimore is the center of all magic. It just means  most of the area information in the book will be about Baltimore.
