My question is: i must make a check for fear, horror or madness when hi try a connection with the nature, or i can assume that a druid "imported" in the core can be self sufficient in most of the domain of the core?
At final a druid that are not a native from the domain of dread can live and use his powers without a lot of limitations (like the fear, horror and madness check)?
The powers and the spells of druids are basically invoked by the connection with the nature.
If the nature is the dark powers normally a druid that make a connection with the nature must make check (fear, horror etc.)?
Remember that the dark powers aren't evil. They are the epitome of neutrality...neutrality with an agenda but neutrality still.

Well, if you want to play 3E/d20, you'd probably want the original 3rd Edition book, the RAVENLOFT Campaign Setting. The RAVENLOFT Player's Handbook people have mentioned is the 3.5 update of that book; however, it costs $5 US more, does very little to account for the actual 3.5E changes (it doesn't deal with the changes to the paladin's mount, for example, or the fact that animate dead now defaults to a maximum of twice the caster's level in HD in the core rules) and spends most of the new space on rules changes that most fans have rejected.

I do sometimes have these creative splurges when the bosses are off down the pub, boozing their way through champagne...
And what are these forums excewpt a place to share.
How churlish of you.

Ah, but if you'd put it in a thread titled "Dread Druid Prestige Class-- whattaya think?" it would've been just fine. It just seemed kind of pointless to post it in a thread asking about a rather specific druidic circumstance, especially since the class as such doesn't even address the issues Meredoth was bringing up.
I am frequently pointless, which is why I wear a pointy hat....
Look, it was just a side thought, ever heard of those? JCOARC, you must be fun at a party
