Hi there.
(Disclaimer for Safety's sake I'm a new GM for pathfinder and fairly new to these boards so if this question has been answered elsewhere I would appreciate the link to the relevant info, I've run a search but haven't found any thing.)
Anyway I'm Running the Serpent's Skull AP for my gaming group and one of my players is a Blight Druid. He approached me last night with an interesting question. Since Vermin Empathy replaces Wild Empathy can it be assumed that any of his spells and or specials would effect vermin instead of animals (example the vermin heart feat allows characters to target vermin instead of animals but requires Wild Empathy. I ruled that since he had vermin empathy he could target vermin already but not animals so he would have to take a "wild heart" feat to target animals.
The reason I am asking is because this seemed to be the intent of the rules but its not actually stated anywhere.
Thanks ahead of time for the responses.
Vermin Empathy does not change how the druid's spell works normally, only type of creatures which attitude can be altered but it is reasonable house rule.
I would also say that Vermin Empathy is similar enough to regular Wild Empathy that it can be used as prerequisite for Vermin Heart.

Much obliged for the response. Hmm..I think for flavors sake I will just run with the house rule on this, it seems to offer more dynamic for playing the role as it were.
