I'm thinking that those troll druids have been hiding, but they arn't associated with the Darkspears - untill Vol'jen welcoms them into the tribe, or whatever. That would explain why he, or anyone else, didn't know they were there, and why there have been no troll druids before.
Well, seeing as the original idea pitched was that it had to do with Shatterspears... maybe they traveled south to check it out?They'll do more with it, definitely. I'd wager that there will be quite a bit in the Troll Druid quests, and perhaps more.
Aye... still wish they would put in more then just 4 lines at the moment thought; look at the wall of text for Sunwalkers, and the 30 minute wait for the 30 second conversation about the Night Elf mages lol.
Sorry for the brief confusion =p. Anyways:
Ancients are:
Primal spirits of the natural world when it was young, they personify its most distinct and most powerful qualities.
Much like ancients, Loa are also Primal spirits of the natural world, their power is proportional to how 'healthy' their lands are. They may grant powers to their priests, among which the powers of shapeshifiting into animal forms corresponding to that of the Loa.
I didn't mean that they were the same. Just very similar. One of my theories actually goes a little farther though, as they seem to be the manifestation of the Spirit of the Wilds to me.
Well, technically anything that is alive is part of the Wilds heh. But I think there is a major difference between the Demigods and the Loa; the fact that Gods are physical forms in the world, while the Loa are all spirits; which yeah, is similar to the Great Spirits heh. Of course, that in itself could be that the Great Spirits for the different aspects of the Druidic life are based on the Demigods instead of something else.

This is exactly what I meant. The 'Cenarion druids' call upon those ancients that are, somehow, connected to Cenarius and Elune while the troll druids call upon other kinds of primal gods, the Loa. But in essence, its all the same kind of magic.Aye, and it could be more of the 'different faces for the same source' thing as well.

Lol, indeed.... though, for that one, if they are of Loa then the Moonkins weren't created by Elune but existed in some point and time heh.

That depends. Perhaps the Bear Loa is a bear because there were already bears in the forest and not the bears are bears because the Bear Loa appeared in the forest.
So a Moonkin Loa might have appeared after Elune created the Moonkin.
Or, there's always the third option, Loas and Ancients alike are somehow connected to Elune. However, this depends on Elune's role in ancient Azeroth... nah too complicated.
What about if Elune is a Loa? this is wild speculation from my part. But, it said that night elves descended from trolls. So, what about the group of trolls that evolved into Night elves workshipped the "moon Loa".

Besides, we could use a refresher.

Ok, that was before I joined the L&RP community for one, and for the other, what is your beef with this? It's an old thread I don't want to necro for one thing, and for the other,
you posted something already posted
, so stop being hypocritical.

....I thought you would want to read the thread Funden... sorry for posting it lol.
Edit: And did you notice the dates there Funden? Morec posted his back towards the end of March lol, and his was from youtube itself. And there's nothing wrong with necroing old threads if they are still relevant, as long as it doesn't descend into a new flame war. I get your angry at Tauren, but don't take it out on me man.
