Teflon Jeff 04-05-07, 06:31 PM	So, I'm playing in a Sharn based campaign. We're all a bit new to the setting, and I wanted to play a druid from the greensinger sect. However, we can't find anything to show that they would be active in the city. Any help?
Vharuck 04-05-07, 09:10 PM	You'd be very hard pressed to find such a thing. Greensingers don't really care about changing the world, in fact their philosophy is that everything that is should be. They don't meddle or quest like other druids. They simply enjoy life, often dancing and partying near Thelanis manifest zones. That being said, maybe your Greensinger is a strange one. He wants to show everyone to celebrate, and will fight those whose tyranny and evil prevents others from celebrating. I don't really know. You chose a very hard background to make sense of, but I'm sure you will and I'll bet you'll have fun.
JulesCARV 04-05-07, 09:48 PM	Even if Greensingers as a group aren't interested in changing the world, individual Greensingers have their own reasons to do what they do. You may be a Greensinger druid, but you still know that there's something missing from the "official story" regarding your father's "suicide," and you're determined to find out what. Or whatever.

UnderworldLord 04-09-07, 10:25 AM	There's already one very large one in Sharn. And its not Thelanis. Those re reserved for the Eldeen, IIRC. A greensinger seems like some sort of bard/druid mix. I always think of them as having that "Dionysus" feel.
Bluebrush 04-09-07, 11:35 AM	Maybe you've gone to the city in search of wine, men/women and song. Maybe you want to shake things up a little in the big city. You're your own man/whatever, and while your love of nature and connection to the fey is unquestionable, you have your own life to live mostly as you choose. As far as I recall there's a sacred site of the Gatekeepers up in the upper wards and there's a druid Skymage on the council. Also it's been mentioned in the Dragonshard there's the "Shadows of the Forest" in The King's Forest. If it really bugs you, maybe you could ask your GM to make up a faction or expand the Gatekeeper sect to include other sects.
NthDegree256 04-11-07, 03:05 PM	And, hey, maybe you're there to experience the effects of the Syriana manifest zone first-hand.
Vharuck 04-13-07, 11:59 AM	I just thought of this: you're a Greensinger. Since when did anything you do make sense to anyone else or have a "reason" (overrated concept, really)? :P
timothyx 04-27-07, 02:11 AM	Exile. You ****** someone off, and the Grove exiled your punkA**. Now you have to figure out what to do with yourself, and you've ended up in sharn. Maybe you've rented a room on a tower, and use your druidic powers to buff up the gardens of the Elite who live in Upper Durra... I'd also go through and look for a prestige class, and think about what flavor you want your character to have later on, because you might never go back to the Eldeen Reaches or to the Shadow marches, so, you're city bound, go from there. Ye olde "OMG someone stole the thing, and I've been charged to get it back!" Some thief ran off with the sacred Chalice of leeks, and you've come to Sharn because, well, thats where the leads came to. Maybe you've lost the trail, and now are just trying to survive in the big bad old city. Oh, and the Grove, they told you not to come back without it. So get to it. The Peasant vis a vis, the Champion really, really, cut and dry. you came to the city, maybe, you want to adventure, maybe you're trying to get to xen'drik, maybe you just want to see the world. Maybe you had a vision, maybe someone else had a vision, and told you that your path didn't lay in the Grove.
