What's the point in playing a druid? Well, aside from the pleasures of not having to be so damn meticulous about one's personal hygiene, always having a pet nearby and being able to transform into a variety of creatures, and having the ability to spontaneously cast summoning spells, that is… perhaps I'd better start again.
Druids are great characters to play if you like making everyone else's life awkward. Fancy being contrary and difficult just for the sake of being contrary and difficult? Play a druid and forbid other characters from cutting down trees or hunting endangered species. Imagine every horror story a talk-radio host might have to tell about 'tree-hugging hippies', and cross them with all the activism of hunt saboteurs, and an alignment that's sure to fly in the face of any extremists in the party and you have a recipe for the perfect cantankerous old git.
