Druids

Post by Vannax »

Although druids exist in Demiplane, they are not involved among PC characters.
Sure, they cannot draw their magic power from the nature (as the lands are connected to darklords). But is that the only one reason why they aren´t PC as well?

It's a silly rule that's I think been dumped since then. Sort of like there being no Fighters allowed from Falknovia.

OK, and do exist any settled rules (I prefere 2.ed. :) ) available for playing druidic PC? - it means advantages, restrictions and so on

For 2E, the Domains of Dread hardcover book devoted a page to druidic ability modifications, in Appendix Three: Character Classes, pages 279 - 280. It did state that druids were almost exclusively natives of other worlds who became trapped in Ravenloft.

Yeah, I know this article from DoD, but as Willowhugger wrote there might exist some rules for playing druidic PC, even Demiplane natives.

The Book of Sorrows (I think) had modified druid rules

Yes, JWM wrote an article there about modified druids as 'caretakers'.
