I think you have the right idea here though, and yes, *THAT* is exactly what
I would like to see in some strange games. I think I'll change the topic
here...<changes made at this time>...

Okay, everybody, time to get out of the flaming wars and onto something more
constructive, and I *mean* constructive.

"Pitcher Plants" and "Guardian Vines" are two things now, as well as
"Biofiber". Anyone else? I've had "Treants" of late myself, but it
was the
result of a Manitou spirit running loose in a gunfight. Anymore, give ideas
and actual attributes, game mechanics if you can please.
