Now, I know I've seen a table somewhere with random appearances and features of buildings within a city, I think I remember it being by building class (ABCD)...
If I remember correctly, the section mentioned something about having to describe city areas on the fly. I'd like to use the table to give me some inspiration as I outline several properties to be auctioned in Waterdeep.


But For the life of me I can't find it, can anyone point me in the right direction?

Ah yes Xedrick! I'd missed out on that one. Thanks for the pointer :-)

thanks, guys!
It's definately not in cityscape, that was my first stop. I'm pretty sure it was an older edition book that I saw it in. I'll get on those suggestions.


[EDIT]: Kyrel, there are brief explanations of each building class (A-D) in waterdeep: city of splendors, pg 91, if you haven't seen that.
I'm talking to a friend of mine who happens to be in the posession of a lot of the old FR stuff, and I'm going to have to borrow City System from him, as it's confirmed that it has exactly what I need, random tables for building height and appearance.

Some of the old 3e Mongoose Publishing City Books had great randomised tables for city buildings and the like. They're all available as cheap PDFs on drivethrurpg.

Having skimmed through Cityscape, I doubt it's in that one. As City System is probably going to be a little hard to come by at this point in time, could anyone with access to said supplement possibly have a look at it, and tell us what these building classes (A-D) means? Like xedrick I'm pretty interested in this.

I'm thinking that was from the City System boxed set.

This is a quick response, hopefully another can give a more informed answer, but how about Cityscape?
