Magic focused on protection, and the separation of the wilds from civilization. But any druid can tell you that the wilds are not a gentle place: from the sting of bugs to the flash of a forest fire—but no place is less so than the hunt of the predator. Some druids, especially those who favor adventuring, embrace that one of the most fundamental cycles of nature is to eat or be eaten. Instead of the caring and protective demeanor that people expect from nature-related magic, these druids take on the hostility of the hunter or the reflexes of the hunted. After all: nature is neither gentle nor forgiving. By Michael McCarthy.Natural Champions of the TundraThe world is vast, filled with diverse ecosystems and equally diverse people who call those places home. The lessons and beauty of their homelands have given rise to heroes inseparable from those environments. This article explores archetypes favored by those who hail from the land of the ice and snow. By Jagger A Dillon.The Brown Ones: The Thundertread Heritage and Grumbler CultureCultures have feared bears for countless generations, giving them all manner of euphemistic names, such as the Brown One or Honeyeaters. The ursine thundertread draw their name from such superstitions, but they are as diverse a heritage as any other. This article presents the thundertread heritage, as well as a gazetteer and culture entry for the grumblers—hermit-like philosophers, scholars, and machinists that occasionally gather together to share their knowledge, tell stories, and debate. By PJ Coffey.Curious Creatures 3: Under Every StoneIn the dark creases of the world, away from the light of day and the eyes of the curious, there are many threats, perils beyond imagining. But also there are creatures who verge on the humdrum, simple beasts who merely want to find their next meal and shelter from the blinding sun. Many times adventurers will pass these beasties by with hardly a second glance, they are just a backdrop to a world that is already strange enough. Other times, these humble animals will find themselves in the center of an adventure, either as a complication to a bigger problem, or an unintended danger in their own right.
