[Waiting] The Druids

[Zaki]

Druidism

____________________________________________________________
BACKSTORY

I say, there is a guild of Druids, controlling nature and making it bend to their whim. If they become too powerful, like in the magic thread, they become nature itself, making the powers of every other Druid more intense. There would be rituals for people to have attacks on towns or on enemies, or to aid with someones troubles.

The Druids-

The Druids are a group of supreme naturalists. They can only control plants and animals. If animals attack them, they use some sort of spell to make them turn sides, and become allies with them. And if plants or natural elements are in their way, then they bend it to do what they want, clearing the way. But of course, they have to draw up a ritual circle for supreme power to help them, etc...

The Druids evolved from wizardry, sick of the old ways, they tried to find a more "Efficient" way to use magic without hurting the world. They are the ones who tried to destroy the reminance of magic itself. They are the official enemies of witchcraft AKA: Wizardry. They burn the corpses of their enemies on the great stone table itself, just to give back to the world for what they have taken, infusing the great relic with great power.

The stone table, otherwise known as Stonehenge. Stonehenge was thought to be created by ancient Cultics, but I want to use it for Druidic uses. They say Stonehenge is where the first Druid was born from the great Arc Haven (Druid heaven). The first druid was said to be able to split land with a flick of his finger, he was able to make it rain without even blinking. But then again, it is just a mythological story, but the Druids aren't. And so they will take up that myth and make it truth. They will resurrect the great Druid, and destroy all of the Arcane.

The Great One is said to be wondering the world, people unaware of his existence, the Druids blindly worshiping a "Fake" or "Non-existent" master. The current druids do not know of the Great Ones mortality as a peasant farmer, they believe him to be a great god of life and plantation. The Great One, being whipped, beaten, and stricken down by his enforcers to labor, resisted the temptation to do the obvious, concealing his secret.

This leaves the Druids worshiping nothing, and the Great One being a temporary peasant, the world of Druidism being turned upside down by a little un-determined problem...

Being blessed by the Great One

When you are blessed by the Druidic Great One, you will become a pure Druid, your spirit is nature and nature is your spirit.
__________________________________________________________________________

Being Reincarnated

When you are killed as a Druid, your spirit is compressed into an orb of light in which will be pulled by all necessary force back to the stone table for you to be reincarnated. When reincarnated, you will remember little of what happened to you and what happened before that, making the NLR rule IC. So you know what that means! You cannot go back to the place of which you were killed as you do not remember where that was ICly, but you remember the events leading up to it except one thing is missing! The person who killed you will not be in memory, he/she will be a blur, impossible to identify or discover. When being reincarnated, your corpse will be consumed by an omnivorous plant that grows out of the ground. The plant will be as big as necessary to consume your body. After your body is eaten, you are reproduced from the plants pod cells, dropping onto the table in a sort of a pea pod. When the pod becomes ripe and your soul is done reconstructing your body, you will become human again but there is one side-effect, you will smell like vegetables for one week and you will not be able to cast ANY magic or speak at all for at least ten minutes. So when you come out of the pod you cannot just walk up to any random person saying, oh hey! I was just killed! Tell me what I need to do next!. Thing is, when you die, you do not remember dying, it just seems like you have woken up from a really bad dream, but you remember the massive pain in which you were killed, and you can still feel it for a short time. As NLR being put into action when you die and are reincarnated, your reputation will decrease with the Druidic faction as they may be doing a ritual, then **Plop** you slam smack dab in the middle of what they are doing.

If you die as a Druid without being blessed by the Great One, then you are TK'ed until we can retrieve your corpse.

As much as I like the idea of Druids, this is going too far, refine it a good bit, and remove use of all Elemental Magic except "Nature" aka Green Shit.
Seriously, as elitist as I am, we do not like the idea of TREE HUGGERS running around with FIRE MAGIC.

[Zaki]

Okay, I modified it, there are no more other powers other than Nature.

Druids = Herb/Potion Masters....they are expert hippies and herbal medicine/potion makers <___<

They have Natural powers in this server... Its Fantasy/Medieval RP after all.
