Druid
Aeron Gwynn was just an ordinary Welsh boy until he went camping with his family on Holy Island one Alban Heruin and awakened to his past life as a druid. Although Aeron tried to still be the boy he was before, he was not the same and it was not too surprising when he announced one morning he was leaving to answer a call from across the sea.
The mysterious call brought Aeron to Claremont's Roberta Isley Garden where he almost gave Terrance Williams a heart attack when he stepped out from one of the trees the groundskeeper was pruning; Aeron’s immediate and sincere apology did much to diffuse the situation and get him an interview with Duncan Summers rather than a visit from security. Although Aeron couldn’t tell Duncan why exactly he had been called to Claremont and the garden specifically, the young man was able to convince Duncan to let him stay.
While he’s quite comfortable at Claremont Aeron is still coming to grips with the power, knowledge, and responsibility revealed to him (it doesn’t help he still has no idea why the school’s garden is so important) and in quiet moments it can all be a bit overwhelming. So Aeron rarely allows himself quiet moments. He’s an eager volunteer around the school and, thanks to his amiable personality and willingness to listen, is sought out by many students when they need someone to vent to or a shoulder to cry on. Of course, Aeron is only too glad to help his fellow students with their concerns as it keeps his mind off his own. Aeron saw a kindred spirit in Serena Vervain (aka Seven), sensing she too labored under a great responsibility and dealt with it in much the same way he does. He occasionally thought about talking with her about it, but for some reason just couldn’t bring himself to follow through.

Special abilities
Aeron’s powers and knowledge are impressive for his age, especially his ability to call upon the mystical powers of nature for such things as bringing down lightning and thunder on opponents, awakening trees to aid him, and crossing vast distances by momentarily melding with nature itself. Sensing his life will change forever once the true purpose of his presence at Claremont is revealed Aeron is determined to enjoy his time at school as much as possible and does his best to follow Terrance’s advice to “let tomorrow worry about itself”.
