Talk:Dark Oak

Unlike other 'druids', Gaze of Fury can't target it. It seems to be either Ghost or other family. MithranArkanere 23:01, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Doesn't

look very dark to me. Or oaky. --smøni 20:11, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

The real-life druids are rather murky, but Druids could have been etymologically tied to oaks (i.e. *druwides as "oak-knower"), and one evil druid from the story of the birth of Oisín was called a Dark Druid (Fer Doirich). Given their bond with nature and the jungle, it's a reasonable name. Blue Totoro 23:44, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
