Druid
“Nature answers those who know how to ask.”
Description
What the class is, and what it becomes as the levels pass.
The Druid speaks for a nature that answers back — through the spells they weave, or through the shape they take when words are no longer enough. Some pour everything into the first, some into the second, and some refuse to choose, learning to hold both in the same body at once.
