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. Patroned by Gaia Herself, the council was led by five Hierophants, the first being Mysti, Mandrake, Rahl, Treant, and Galdrion.

The foundation of the council is 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 possess 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 sets foot beneath the eaves, a concoctionist who has been enemied to Oakstone loses the ability to harvest herbs.

Summary of Enemyable Crimes

Every natural area shall be under Oakstone's protection. The gardens within city walls are no exception, Oakstone protects them from extermination, fires and overharvesting. ~ Excerpted from the Oakstone Charter

The following actions are grounds for immediate enemy status to Oakstone, also known as forest-enemying:

  • Mass Overharvesting: three or more offenses within ten years. No plants may be harvested below 10 per location.
  • Extermination, holocaust or inferno within a forest, jungle or garden location.

Those who assist in these crimes or hide an act of extermination, holocaust or inferno shall be prosecuted as if they had performed the act themselves.

Slaying of treekin within the Black Forest and minor accounts of overharvesting (one or two instances) do not carry enemy status as a direct result, but non-payment of any fine within six months is cause for enemy status until such time as the fine is paid.
