Yes, 15 points in SoD: Nature makes it pretty hard to sensibly co-operate with most delvers, or with civilization in general [1], but there's lots of room for conflicting disads in DF. It's just weird to me that Druids are the only one for whom the "don't screw the party" disad is off template. I think I'm gonna run with "DF druids are shifty" though. It seems like a sensible conclusion. [2] Darn shifty bunny-huggers. [1] Note: "delvers OR civilization." IME these two are not generally well aligned. [2] To be fair, being unwilling to be loyal to other delvers is probably the moral choice here. |

The only thing exceptional about it is that druids can't take it; that doesn't guarantee that anybody else does. |

Re: Druids are Shifty
It just tends to be campaign-inconvenient, though I think the Holy Warrior wins for having the most inconvenient disad list for dungeon crawling, he doesn't seem to have a choice that isn't at least significantly unprofitable.

Re: Druids are Shifty
The house-rule in my game is either you take SoD: Adventuring Companions or you get it for free! Everyone has it, you might as well get points for it.

Re: Druids are Shifty
It's not even that they can't take it (the sample character has it!), it's just not suggested.

Re: Druids are Shifty
I've seen lots of thief PCs that compromise. They won't steal things that belong to a party member but stuff that the party hasn't seen yet is fair game.

I'm not planning to do that in my first DFRPG game just because I want to absolutely minimize house rules to keep it simple, so I'll instead just encourage everyone to take it. |
