SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Elementals as Nature Spirits

You know what I find ironic?  That the Pundit is all over this topic talking up the concept of local spirits, spiritual embodiments of places, ideas, parts of the world, including elements etc when the one game that has always pushed this concept as a feature is one he has such outspoken disinterest in.  Namely RuneQuest.  In the 6th edition you can play with the possibilities of such beings and intelligences even more than ever before, using the Animism magic system.

Care to take a fresh look, off the back of this topic Pundit?  Go on, hold your nose at the d100 "whiff" and try to see the real potential the system has for reflecting the variety of spiritual belief and powers that are associated with them...

Clearly, "what I like" is awesome, and a well-considered, educated opinion. While "what other people like" is stupid, and just a bunch of made up gobbledygoook. - zomben
