[QUOTE="RUMBLETiGER, post: 6000559, member: 6674868"] The reason is I'm trying to develop the backstory for a campaign I'm co-creating with one of my buddies. It's a point of personal pride to have a reasonable mechanical explianation for how things are as the DM, even should the players never learn of it. It's part of the fun for me. Also, because we are co-creating, I need something my friend can also be on the same page about, but that's a secondary reason. I freakin love this. The final objective will be to end up with an island miles across. However, I would love for all of this to have started this simple, a Druid trying to make his own way in the world, starting simple, relying upon the aid of those in the sea and the sea itself, THEN growing into something great. I will craft a story that starts here, on a little raft in the sea. I would love it should this creator magically craft one tree at a time, until there were enough to support the continued growth of a forest on it's own. Feather Tokens require the [I]Major Creation [/I]spell, I'll either need to multiclass (likely with a Cleric with the Creation Domain) or find some other way for this Druid to accomplish this, but I'll work it in. These crafted trees would become the heart of his Grove, from which the rest of the forest grew out of. Great idea. A number of Wild Empathy checks to call the sea creatures to his aid in the beginning, then Awakening a few to serve as friends and co-creators in the later years. Thanks for all the ideas so far, keep them coming! [/QUOTE]
