Spirit of the Land[edit]

Minor Dungeons & Dragons creature- no real-world significance or third party sources. May have some level of significance in Darksun- I am unfamiliar with the setting, and so cannot comment, but the article does not indicate that it does. J Milburn (talk) 22:35, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Not every D&D creature is notable. Very few are, actually. This is no slaad or death knight, so away it goes. (I'm going to copy-paste this into all of the D&D creature AfD's going on right now. Couldn't we have combined them for ease?) --Ig8887 (talk) 03:25, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No secondary sources, no assertion of notability. Fails WP:RPG/N and WP:N. Percy Snoodle (talk) 10:38, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete — non-notable. Mention in a list. Cheers, Jack Merridew 11:15, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Fatality'd! I know of this monster (I have the 3.0 book it's in), but I heavily doubt it's any more notable than, say, a random nature kami or a random Native American spirit. -Jéské ^{(v^_^v :L10 Lucario Cleric of Mew)} 22:15, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I thought that. Surely there is a real world spirit in some folklore or religion that is called this? J Milburn (talk) 22:17, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Not that I know of; from what I know of those cultures (although I could be wrong) there is no one spirit responsible for the land, and if there is it is not referred to as the "spirit of the land". -Jéské ^{(v^_^v :L10 Lucario Cleric of Mew)} 22:30, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment — Do not redirect this; see, for example http://www.spirit-of-the-land.com/; there are a lot of other ghits out there that would seem to have nothing to do with D&D. Ask me about namespace. Cheers, Jack Merridew 07:27, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
