    I haven’t heard of such a case, but the idea sounds great. Mebhail, =
    the power of the land that already manifests itself as various =
    (traditionally powerful) places of natural significance - mineral - =
    ancient mountains, volcanoes, waterfalls, etc, - vegetable - ancient =
    untouched forests, and so on - why not an animal form? I wouldn’t use =
    an actual flesh & blood critter, but several Celtic tales come to mind =
    of the ‘un-catchable’ fox or stag that becomes the obsession of the =
    local lord who hunts it on and off for several years and in the end =
    either ‘catches’ (or is caught by) it only to find it is the =
    shape-changed ghost of spouse, spurned lover, the devil, God, some =
    artifact, or even some magical entity.
    I think I might just check over the party’s mage and see if she has =
    the hunting non-weapon proficiency, and then subtly work on a little =
    obsession * evil grin * :wink:

    Good hunting,=20

From Ben & Amy
I’ve heard it mentioned that the bones of a dead dragon in an area =
or
something would influence the source level, but I don’t know about it
working the other way. Were you listening to Enigma when you wrote that?
