Message: <blockquote data-quote="Presto2112" data-source="post: 3670187" data-attributes="member: 18303">I once devised an island that sat in the middle of a river that contained both a large town and a druids' grove.  Within the grove, and completely unbeknownst to the populace of the town, stood a massive tree which bore three different colored flowers - white, yellow, and red.  The entire grove, town, and island, and every sentient life form on the island was linked to this tree, called the Soulbloom Tree by the druids, and it was the druids' primary duty to tend to this tree.  Those who possessed good souls were represented by a white flower on the tree were mostly good of heart, and were tended to with great care.  Yellow flowers represented those who were neither good nor evil in nature, and were typically left alone.  Red flowers were linked to evil people, and when these were found, the druids pruned them from the Soulbloom, and the person to which the red flower was connected spiritually was shortly found dead.Granted, this is not an ideal situation, and certainly not one I'd personally endorse, but it made for an incredible, and frequently used location by the DM I originally gave the idea to.  The result was a very peaceful town with very little violent crime, except for crimes of passion and those committed by people from outside the town who hadn't lived in the town long enough to establish the spiritual connection to the Soulbloom.  Of course, were anyone from the town to find out about this tree and the actions of the druids, there'd likely be a revolt (or worse).</blockquote>
