Well, that didn’t take long! My friend and guildmate, Abagoo of Scarlet Crusade (US), has created the epic tale of one Druid’s quest for Rabbit Form, forever immortalized in comic form! As the images are quite large, I’ve reproduced it as its own page. Thanks, Abby! 10 points for you! (10 points are redeemable for one Rebirth, assuming yours is still available. And that you agree to Innervate me.)

There are some wonderful benefits to using IM to communicate with one’s spouse while at work:

[16:39] Phae: i want critter form
[16:40] Mr. Phae: lol
[16:40] Phae: i want to be able to turn into a bunny
[16:40] Phae: why shouldn’t i?
[16:40] Phae: i can turn into a bear, a cat, a bird, and a frickin’ tree
[16:40] Phae: a bunny doesn’t seem so hard
[16:41] Mr. Phae: But if you ever figured out how you’d be stuck in that form I bet.
[16:41] Mr. Phae: In fact, I bet all critters are just former Arch Druids.
[16:43] Phae: rofl
[16:43] Phae: seriously, it could be like Druid Fade
[16:45] Mr. Phae: lol.  I’m imagining a video about a Druid learning how to change into a critter.  At the end they finally figure it out, and there is much rejoicing for about 3 seconds.  Then a warrior charges out of nowhere to kill it.

10 points (and a Community Spotlight) to whoever makes the above video!

From Doodlebug of Hots & Dots and Eustashius of FauxPaws comes a hilarious new web comic called Road to Blizzcon featuring Doodle’s Tree and Eustashius’ Cat. The comics are written in the style of LOLCats with a healthy dose of Alamo inspiration. There are currently three strips available, and you can check them out here! Keep up the fantastic work, guys!

P.S. I voted “Foshizzle! Yes, lol!” in the “Should our two special Durids find Blizzcon” poll. I can only imagine the fun that would ensue as they mocked the costume contest entrants!

Phaelia’s got it all wrong!  The Midsummer Fire Festival is a celebration of one of the sacred responsibilities of trees!  Even in death, we bring warmth, joy and happiness to people by giving them something to gather around in cold and to cook over for those they love!

Besides, did you see these SUUWEEET threads?!

The festival not only reminds us of duties we continue to perform after this life, but Druids are one of the best equipped classes to complete the quests!  With Travel Form and the non-busy floor of Exodar, I feel like I’m almost cheetahing doing the More Torch Catching quest.  And with Prowl, stealing the flames right under the noses of the Horde in their capital cities makes me stop, drop and roll with laughter!

Ah…  but, the Midsummer Fire Festival also gives us our first taste of Fire Tree Form from the Wrath of the Lich King.  Collect the [Vestment of Summer] and [Sandals of Summer] and you can experience Tree of Death in all its fiery glory! Release the [Captured Flame] for a glimpse at our future Force of Fire minions!  Instead of a Tree Mafia, we’ll have a deadly, fiery Wisp Mafia!

And didn’t Phae notice how many people submitted Trees on fire for the Arbor Day gallery?  Blizzard is just giving people what they wanted.  FIRE!

There’s been a lot of hullabaloo in the blogosphere about the Midsummer Fire Festival lately. I’ve been appalled at the participation of several Restoration Druid bloggers, including a brutally graphic video by Leafshine and a detailed guide of the most efficient path to visit the bonfires by Pookies (one would hope with the intention of dousing them). Lossemenel from Elune’s Guidance writes about witnessing frenzied hooligans frolicking around roaring bonfires and dancing around poles that I think not coincidentally happen to be made of wood. Doodle from HoTs & DoTs even shares a horrific story of deliberate self-conflagration.

Apparently, it’s incumbent upon me to point out that it’s a FIRE festival. We are TREES. This festival is clearly classist/specist. Just say NO to Fire Blossoms! BAH, HUMBUG!

P.S. Speaking of fire-related things, Kael’thas Sunstrider can DIAF for not dropping my [Phoenix Hatchling].
