Difference between revisions of "Druid"

Druids are the most ancient of the forestal classes, devoted to the forests and all they represent. Although their isolationist nature has tended to remove them from the great events of history, the formation of the forest commune of Eleusis in modern times (as well as the formation of the Council of Oakstone) has given Druids power that extends beyond their beloved forests. Members of the Druid class tend to stay clear of the near-religious battles between good and evil that dominate much of the land, preferring instead to focus on what they deem good: The welfare of the forests. Though some Druids are loners, there is a thriving forestal community, and some Druids are as social as possible.

Outside of a grove, and even outside of forests generally, a Druid remains a force to be reckoned with, if not nearly as powerful as in the forest. They are able to tap into the remnants of natural life in a location, coaxing them to grow at an astounding rate. Through their power is Nature able to progress at a much faster rate, granting power to those who stand upon the reclaim land. Similarly, a druid is able to transform into a variety of different animals, ranging from the humble squirrel to the grizzly bear to the mighty wyvern. These transformations grant the Druid a range of new powers, from bird forms that allow flying to the skies above and swooping down to hoist a victim into the skies, to the elephant form that allows trampling an opponent, and a host of other capabilities.
