There are two types of Druid on the Continent: the Protectors of Nature and the Druid Priest...

The first category comprises individuals who live in harmony with nature; all their life is offered to the protection and study of nature… Most Druids live alone in isolated areas… Botany, Alchemy, Astronomy etc… are the areas of interest explored by the Druid… There are also legends about Druids communicating with animals, even changing their own shape to that of an animal in order to evade danger or defend themselves…

Druids are solitary individuals who may choose to team up with a group of adventurers if it suits their purpose, but in most cases they would rather spend time alone or with other Druids…

There is usually a mutual understanding and respect between Tracker/Ranger and Druids, and they often share knowledge and information about the areas they are travelling through…

Druid Priests, also called Dargorduns (translates "Thieves of Nature"), use all their knowledge to predict the future, twist nature for their own purposes and plunge it into darkness… They carry out atrocious sacrifices in order to obtain information and secrets, to become the masters of Forests… Indeed, what was once beautiful woodland and forest often bear their mark, characterised by silence and a scarcity of wildlife and all that one would expect to find in such places… Trees grow in twisted shapes and in some areas shield the forest floor from sunlight… A Druid or Ranger will immediately pick up on this… Druid Priests have great influence towards the south of the Continent, notably in the Black Forest…

Both types of Druids are always in search of higher levels of understanding of nature, whatever their purpose… They draw their power from nature and do not use the same magic as Sorcerers and Mages… Druids will never team up with a group of adventurers if more than two Spells Casters are already involved, as they are generally quite suspicious and do not wish to share any of their secret rituals or art…
