Hmmm...I think the "Worker Spirits" would be too close to the original
Insect Spirits ... what I was just wondering was basically if anybody
thought anything wrong with following an insect totem like a normal totem
instead of like the standard rules ... (though if you say that Ant speaks
to you, your gonna get a heap of trouble ... [though it'd be pretty funny
if you said "Grasshopper says I have much to learn ..."])

:)

Hmmmm... making Insect Shamans Toxic? don't Toxics summon warped
versions of what the normals summon? (I believe there is a mention in
Grimmy about Toxic Insect Shamans...) I think if, this were done, Insect
shamans should be a different tradition (ie, you have Hermetics,
Shamans/Druids, and Insect Shamans)
