Group - Plants and stuff - Rift (Original) - Feb 13 2018
After Rift's encounter with Blackberry, he's beginning to realize that a lot of gembounds don't care about plants the same way he does. This makes him very sad and he wants to spread the word that plants are precious and alive, just like everyone in the caves. And, also, protect what little growth there is and bring more life and green to the caves. Also protect Eridanus because there's lots of plants.
And this doesn't just include plant magic, this includes fungal magic as well - mushrooms are alive too. So, basically, the group would be a bunch of gembounds that care about nature, whether plants or mushrooms, it doesn't matter.
Of course, being a user of either of these magics is not a requirement. In fact, Rift encourages light users to join as well to encourage natural plant growth throughout the caves, as well as those that can fight or protect to keep Eridanus safe. That will be their territory and all trespassers will be challenged.
For names, I'm thinking something like Lifebringers, The Druids (or something with druid in it), or Guardians of Growth. Any other ideas, just throw them out there!
So, for roles, there will be a lot of things that a member of this group could do:
Plant magic users will primarily spread as much life into the caves as possible. Useful spells are emerge, blossom, and flourish. The use of lifesteal is looked down upon.
Fungal magic users will be working in a similar fashion, although it is encouraged that they stick to fungal wake when doing business for the group.
Light magic users will be helping spread more natural light to areas with potential for growth. Bauble is the most useful spell for this task.
Water magic users can either travel the caves or stay in Eridanus and tend to the growth and keep the ground moist. Fountain and purify are the most useful, although there are other possible uses with the other spells, besides glaciate.
Fire magic users can help clear out diseased or dead areas to promote new growth and life as well as warming areas that have grown cold. Smolder step, heatwave, and incinerate are the most useful.
The only reason prokaryotic users would be welcome is if they are healers. If they are capable of spreading disease, they will be chased away immediately.
Any other magic users, except those of prokaryotic (who are unwelcome in this group), are welcome to help protect what the group grows or Eridanus itself. Rift would like to have the tunnels guarded so to make sure that any gembound with malevolent intent does not come to ruin the beautiful nature of the cave. They can also help spread the word and show their support in any way they can. Be creative!
As a side note, Rift can be gullible or ignorant and sometimes can be quick to trust. If you're a fire magic user or something else that Rift would not welcome, you can hide it from him. As long as you don't destroy any plants, he doesn't have to know ;)
If you're interested, please let me know and lets bring some love and green to the caves!
RE: Group - Plants and stuff - Nox - Feb 14 2018
I’d love to throw Nox at this- she has a tendancy to start forest fires but only when she’s scared and other than that, she likes plants and flowers and things. She’s a very stretchy girl, and could help by chugging a trucktun of water to feed the plants (how she puts out fires as well). She’d just need somewhere peaceful where no-one would scare her, and where she could grow attached to other members of the group.

I'd love to throw Splotch in here! She's a plant magic user, and is a newborn.

Yo! Since you guys showed some interest, I'd like to let you guys know that the group will be forming IC before it becomes official. Rift is currently forming the idea in this thread: /showthread.php?tid=4946
If you'd like to join and help form the group, feel free to hop in!

UPDATE: Fire users are now quite welcome! Prokaryotic users, unless they are healers, are not welcome whatsoever
