Message: <blockquote data-quote="Snapdragyn" data-source="post: 1357967" data-attributes="member: 12432">Consider that druids are concerned with the balance of life. The numerous (& how!) intelligent species in D&D are part of that balance. Why, then, would there not be druids concerned with the balance of power between sapients, rather than simply how sapient cultures affect 'wild' nature?I'm thinking urban druids as racial (or city) guardians. Just as a more typical grove druid would protect their forest from non-forest incursions (not only woodcutters but also an encroaching marshland), so a human urban druid would protect their urban area from incursions by non-humans seeking to 'defile' the city. Their gnomish counterpart would protect the gnome town nearby, & they would likely even work together to ensure that each culture maintained its 'proper' place in the Great Balance.</blockquote>
