[QUOTE="Nonlethal Force, post: 2948998, member: 35788"] [Sblock=RA][COLOR=Olive]"Druid? Not necessaily, although given the right desires in your heart it would be possible. But one need not forsake the call of the city to respect nature. And one need not become a full druid - to use your term - to honor the creation of the gods I worship. I suppose it even possible to own a hotel as grand as this and still respect and revere nature. The ability to find compassion for a lonely mouse, to be nuzzled by a vigorous and lively horse, and even to wonder how birds fly can be taught to anyone with enough interest." "If it is the power to feed the poor with a wave of the hand over berries and to make a broken woman's tool whole by joining the broken pieces together there are costs that must be accepted and certain sacrifices that do need to be made. But in truth the powers are nothing compared to the blessings of simply learning to humble ourselves in service. Power that is sought after only turns oneself inward. Power that is given away allows us to embrace all things, people, and creation as a whole." "But now I lecture you, and that was not my intent. Please, feel free to ask of me anything you might desire. But as you do so, if you would teach me about the rest of these magnificent beasts. I would value becoming wise by sitting at your feet so to speak. Tonight you are the master of this stable."[/COLOR] [Sblock=OOC]I wasn't sure about the whole "naming of the druid" thing. Before I put my foot in my mouth and RPed something I didn't mean to, I thought I would ask. Are druids in your homebrew secrative? I mean, I know the whole PHB prohibition about teaching the druidic language to another. But do druids try to hide their nature? Are they a proud group and welcome the attention? Easily identifiable? Do you see where I am trying to go with this? Also, I think I stated earlier in this thread (but possibly before the crash and it was lost) that Rhaka's intentions are not necessarily to teach druidic pwers ... after all, she is only a novice at it herself! Rather, I was thinking along the lines of helping Reyna develop along the lines of - to use game mechanics terminology - skills such as Knowledge (nature), Handle Animal, etc.[/Sblock] [/Sblock] [/QUOTE]
