The main problem with this "different starting cities" idea is that newbie
areas are BC-centric, and even the outerworld is relatively friendly near BC.
Pity the newbie who would end up with Lorenchia. The entire island has, what,
10 areas? of which 2 are good for lowlevels, and beyond those you'd have to
swim 20+ rooms to get off the island. Each city would also need newbie
warehouses.
