All of the starting areas are quite charming if it's what you experienced first and if there's a population to play with...except Toxxulia. Yeesh. I find the newbie yard of Paineel to be lame too, it doesn't fit in with the surroundings, literally just looks like a hastily plopped in space so that Evil Erudites wouldn't have such an agonizing newbie experience. I'd like to see that area redesigned, and there should be a whole other zone up next to Erudin for the Good Erudites - The Grand Plateau. Then you could also redesign Toxxulia as a mid-level zone.
