Druid
The gnoll stands silently, eyes closed, feeling the deep voice of the Earth speak to him through the soles of his padded feet. The whisper of the Air tickles him and his sharp ears prick. Water babbles and flows, Fire crackles and spits. Now he knows. The trappers are close. Silently, the beast moves off in pursuit.
The destruction was obscene. Whole swathes of forest had been left burned and destroyed. Feeling the wrath of nature fill her, the elf’s body flowed and shifted. She grew from a slender woman into the towering form of a bear. With a growl of anger she dropped onto all fours and loped down the hill towards the goblin war party.
The beauty and ferocity of nature are both captured equally in the form of the Druid. Protectors, healers and avengers of the natural world, these spellcasters hear the song of the wild more clearly than any other. Able to act with both kindness and cruelty, the Druid is nature incarnate, able to heal and sooth, harm and destroy, and assume the very shape of the animals they are sworn to nurture and protect. No class is perhaps as diverse and graced with utility, or as capable of specialising in one particular area of expertise as the wild ones of the Druidic calling.
Role: Secondary spellcasters, decent combatants, shapeshifters and possessors of a broad variety of class abilities, the Druid can be a jack-of-all-trades or a recognised master of a particular field. Spellcasting nature-mystics, healers and protectors or ferocious shapeshifting warriors, a Druid can be all of these things. As mutable as nature itself, the options open to a Druid are many and varied…
