Archdruid

"When you're talking to an Archdruid, you're not talking to the person in front of you. You're talking to the grove."
~Margrave Arronax Skinner, Elector of Cambreath

Duties

An Archdruid serves as the conduit to the will of the grove. The grove gains mortal context and understanding while the druid gains a cosmic view of the universe.

Accoutrements & Equipment

Archdruids often develop mutations particular to their grove. Catamount Grassgrove's Archdruid, for instance, takes on a feline aspect whereas the Archdruid of Funthir Grove appears to be made of forest detritus.

Grounds for Removal/Dismissal

Eventually, the Archdruid will lose themselves in this natural bond and will fade away entirely whereupon a new Archdruid will be chosen.

Type

Religious, Special

Source of Authority

An Archdruid is chosen by the grove from among the circle that attends it. The grove typically chooses the druid that is most 'in tune' with it.

Length of Term

Archdruids typically serve many lifetimes, and are blessed with the longevity to do so.
