In my campain, the planet (literally) is an archgodess of nature/life. Since 5 years (in-game), she is agonising and diying, due to extreme changes and loss of life; minor cataclism, extensive wars and a current demon invasion. The basics are that whenever something dies, she gets weaker. The more powerful it was in life, the greater the blow. Now, she's so close to "death" that the weather is wild and animals go crazy.
So, in a self-defense mechanism, she tried to stop the "bleeding". She's very weak, so the only beings she can affect are those that are close to her, namely wild animals, druids and, to a lesser extent, rangers.
In my ongoing campain, druids shouldn't kill. Though most understand that something's very wrong with the godess, most do not understand why or to what extend.
And so druids are stripped from the ability to cast damaging spells (those with listed damage in their description). It's harsh. And I have an elf druid in the party who is growing bitter by the day.
