DM information request - Druids

EvilPyrate · Post by **EvilPyrate** » Mon Nov 20, 2006 3:44 am

I haven't yet seen anything, but I would like to know what the existing network is as far as local Druids and the hierarchy in place.

My main character is a Druid who has recently arrived in the vicinity of Cear.

I'm also interested in seeing what the other players of Druids and Rangers think about forming some sort of loose player association.

We have no class-specific content or ideas in place yet, so if anyone wants to run with this, you have our support. My main is a Druid, and anything that evolves around this class will assist me also. So let's see what you can come up with.

I'm currently playing a Ranger in Single Player, and liking it a lot. A whole lot. I might be popping up with one too, and am rather interested in this as well.

This could be interesting if a group of druids were to roleplay a resistance against the mass farming of boars and wolves. Even if my character shouldn't care any less, it would be nice to see a clear field.

Rangers should have something to say about it too.

And Elves. Yep Elves should be involved.

Oh, and do remember that not all rangers are good.

What I had in mind would be for Druids and Rangers who are of LN, CN, NG, or TN alignments who are in service to Iaosia (Ki).

It isn't race specific (exept that my personal feelings are along the lines of "no UnderTrash need apply"). Not all Elves are treehuggers, just as not all humans are forest burners and not all dwarves are gritsuckers.

Those who are teh ebil aren't really who I was aiming at.

Spoilsport.

CN I could do, but LE seems easier, somehow. Especially considering the setting.

My main is CN. For rangers, CG would also be fine. If I wind up actually starting a group (provided the interest exists in the playerbase and I can get the game to run without crashing every few minutes), I'll take discussion on other alignments and how they fit in.

Evil doesn't really fit with the two primary Gods that this group would be referencing:

Iaosia (Ki) - "Mother of Nature and Beasts, Mistress of Balance"
Greater Deity
Alignment: True Neutral
Holy Symbol: A mask created from leaves of various trees
Favorite Colors: Forest Green
Favorite Weapon: Shillelagh
Animal: Tiger
All that is nature is Ki. She is the goddess of rangers, druids and those loving nature and animals. She often assists Enki during the time of harvest. Her temples are found mainly in the forest.

Ineania (Enki) - "Mistress of Sweet Water and Good Magics, Protector of the Farm"
Intermediate Deity
Alignment: Neutral Good
Holy Symbol: A vial of pure water
Favorite Colors: White
Favorite Weapon: Light Flail
Animal: Horse
A goddess of plain beauty, Enki is worshiped by mages, farmers, and by some brewers.

Ineania I can agree would not fit with the evil aligned. Iaosia however is true neutral, so any alignment could feasibly worship her.

I haven't thought much in regards to alignment or diety for the ranger I'm creating on the server tonight, oddly enough. Evil is a possibility, though.. just because you're a ranger doesn't necessarily mean you want to balance everything, I guess that's my point. I think it would be a nice challenge to play a ranger/assassin, though, again, I'll put more thought into it tonight. Hehe.
