d6	Personality Trait
1	I am enamored by all of the unique sights, sounds, scents, and sensations of the world around me!

5	If I am not gardening, then my time is being wasted

d6	Ideal
1	Care. If simply grinding leaves and roots into a poultice can help others so much, how could I not help all who need me? (Good)
2	Patience. To ensure a proper yield of herbs, one must resist the desire to harvest at first signs of growth. People are much the same. (Lawful)
3	Death: If you do not prune undesirable growth from your herbs, they will wilt and die. It seems that mankind needs a proper cleanse... (Evil)
4	Nature. We take from the world around us daily, it is how we live. One day, we will have to return what we have taken. (Neutral)
5	Might. Within a garden all plants are the same, but the stronger will thrive (Evil)
