I personally find the idea of someone using forestal skills with a darker pitch interesting, like when in Airbender Katara learned how to take water from plants to be able to fight with her water skills. I could see there being an extremist faction who want to propagate nature by any means necessary. And that could mean destroying certain locations to get more power, for a time, to be able to force it on a city. The ends justifying the means.
I think, in a totally OOC way, it'd be fun to play with.
Lucine would never do it though, she's way too nice. She cries when she kills cute animals.
EDIT:
Also, I think there were some grandfathered in Targossas, but I could be wrong.
And you won't understand the cause of your grief...
...But you'll always follow the voices beneath.
Edit: Totally going back to Quil's roots as Jester.
Also, we should totally start factionalising the forestal classes harder.

It's a sign @Sarapis, we've matured enough to deserve multiclass. It must be released!
Oh wait, I'm a druid.
So giving and so kind.
I mean, I know that society is currently rife with people taking points of view as facts of law nowadays, but how is my personal view oppressing anyone?
I can have bacon, I encourage everyone who is allowed to have bacon to have bacon. If you can't have bacon because of religious reasons, well, don't have bacon. If you can't because of medical reasons, I am truely, truely sorry... but I'm going to have bacon. And potentially tease you with it.
And yes, I get(I at least really really hope!) that @silvarien was trying to be funny, but dammit man, at least use a Kappa or some sort of sarcasm denoting tag!
When Canada rules the world,
things will be... nii~ice.
Edit: by the way, nice moose.
The whole point is that Necromancy IS anathema to Nature.
But then again, just because you own a gun, does not mean you are a murderer. So play it, let's see where it goes if it's even remotely possible.
If Druid + Infernal is not possible, I'll have to get creative on how to communicate what has happened and what he has become. But it will almost certainly be something the general forest community would not approve of or at least frown upon.
In more understandable terms, I believe one can think of Athelas as the embodiment of Yin and Yang. It's not completely accurate, but it does make understanding him a bit easier.
"You bad! You Infernal! We keeel you!"
And Athelas is all like:
"But no! Wait! You don't understand! I fight and die for Nature!"
The village goes:
"We not care! We see monster! We keeel you!"
OR it could go like:
"Dude! WTF! Explain yourself."
And Athelas goes:
"Know your enemy! I've studied the ways of the Infernal, yes I have those skills. But only because I've had to learn how and what they are. I hope to use that knowledge to better defend nature against them."
And the Village goes:
"Ok dude, we can live with that, but watch it! As much as a single exterm from you and we'll have you guts for garters."
And besides, think about just a difficult it would be for him to gain those skills. Who would he study from?
This is an RP rich, atomic bomb, that can explode in any one of a million ways.
He could end up as a revered Eleusian, an eccentric unaccepted Eleusian, an outcast desperate to prove his regard for Nature etc, etc, etc. The beautiful thing about contrast, is that you never know quite how it will pan out. Even if you are the one with the steering wheel, you just don't have the control you normally would, so ... we'll see if it is possible first. Then we'll see if we can RP it

One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important
Just imagine the results on the Poetry news
But we really are jumping the gun here. It's most probably never going to happen. I just really like playing his "dark-side" and this would be an interesting avenue.
The most likely thing that will happen though, is that he never does the multi-class thing, but ends up with a very visible, disliked and/or adored ability to publicly skin Mhaldorians alive, and using the skin to make decorative back-packs for his fellow Eleusians.
Re serpent: the more I think about it, the more I kind of hope they don't give class-specific traits and racial specialisations, even if it means I probably can't be serpent again. That, especially combined with what I imagine will be limitations on switching class that make things like phasing into a city and then switching to a different class pretty unreasonable to do, should help cut down on every single person picking up serpent for utility. In general, I really hope we don't see a bunch of people using multiclass as a way to get a "utility mode".
Also, I'm looking at shaman for multiclass.
