Dedicated solely to the protection and preservation of nature, The Council of Oakstone was formed in 227 AF by Mysti and Mandrake with the assistance of Gaia, Goddess of Nature, and Sarapis, the Logos. Originally patroned by Gaia Herself, the council was led by five Hierophants, the first being Mysti, Mandrake, Rahl, Treant, and Galdrion. Until the death of Lady Melantha in 611 AF, She and Lord Lupus presided jointly as the council's Patrons.
The foundation of the council was the Oakstone Charter, a document outlining the structure and jurisdiction of the council, and most importantly the laws regarding Nature. Wielding a power not to be taken lightly, the Hierophants possessed the ability to enemy those who would harm Nature directly, setting the wrath of the forests against them.
In addition to the forest itself attacking on sight if an enemy so much as set foot beneath the eaves, druids, sylvans and sentinels could face the loss or higher cost of abilities requiring allegiance with Nature Herself.
