Are the titans evil? To ask that one must ask "Is a windstorm evil? Or an earthquake?" Because in a sense that's what the titans are. Sure they possess intelligence, but they also are of alien thinking. To them creating and destroying comes as naturally to them as it would to someone painting a picture. But there lies the difference. Titans affect change on a global level. So while their followers might indeed be cruel and wicked, many of their druids and some of their sorcerers aren't always that clear cut. Indeed many that don't undergo transformations (such as the hags of Mormo), are no more evil than a druid in the Realms trying to save a forest by keeping out unnatural creatures. As for the baseline, it's actually quite easy to free a Titan. Mesos, the elemental/primal aspect of magic or sorcery, is probably very close to being reborn as his energy is merely dispersed. Mormo herself has many parts to her, and some of them are in various cultists. Kadum could even arise, if given someway to stop the bleeding and get a new heart. The titans CAN rise and the world can tremble at their wrath. But that just means the heroes have to fight THAT much harder. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />    Actually yes that's how it started out. But I've kind of evolved my own little mythos around my handle. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> Plus there's a Bl'ayne Nightfall, my NPC counterpart in the Scarred Lands. (Pick up Shelzar: City of Sin. Page 95. That's me.) <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
