[QUOTE="Torm, post: 1965810, member: 12706"] Most of you who read it probably took my previous post as a joke - and somewhat rightly so. :D But the actual point I was driving at is, why does it [B]always[/B] have to be about threats to nature or their forest? You (almost?) never see a Druid with a sacred forest or grove or what-have-you that [I]nobody[/I] wants to bother - maybe it is way off the beaten path, or maybe the people of the local town just plain LIKE having that view of beautiful wilderness outside of the north part of town - and so the Druid's motivation for adventuring/being-a-baddie is latched onto a totally different aspect of their lives. Everyone seems to want to go for the nature-guardian/ecoterrorist angle, and while those do make sense, they're just a little obvious, no? [/QUOTE]
