    自然祭司 · Друид — Древний жрец, ставший единым с природой

The druid is an ancient priest class becoming one with nature and wielding its power. The historical archetype is the scholarly class responsible for religion, law, and education in Celtic societies (Gaul, Britain, Ireland) from the 1st century BCE, recorded in detail in Caesar's Gallic Wars. They held ceremonies in oak groves, taught disciples orally over 20 years, divined the future, and mediated tribal disputes. In fantasy they become a class with animal shapeshifting, nature magic, healing, and elemental summoning — D&D's Druid class, Warcraft's Druids, and Tolkien's Radagast are prominent examples. Strong association with hermits living in forests and wilderness away from cities and civilization.

Origin

The Druidic (Druidae) priestly class of Celtic civilization is the direct archetype. They appear in Julius Caesar's records of the Gallic campaigns as a mysterious priestly caste.

Features

  • Shapeshift: transforming into animal forms for combat or exploration
  • Nature healing: healing wounds using the energy of plants and earth
  • Nature summoning: calling upon animals, plants, and spirits for combat support
  • Natural disasters: unleashing storms, earthquakes, plant rampages, and other environmental attacks

Stories

Strongest in outdoor environments. An all-around nature mage responsible for exploration, protection, and healing in natural regions.

Weakness

Greatly diminished abilities in urban and indoor settings. Extremely averse to acts of nature destruction (logging, mining), causing frequent conflict.
