The Druid
The Druids are a race of nomadic warrior-poet-kings. Driven from their homelands long ago by their Barbarian brothers, the Druid tribes live primarily in the northern forests. Using mystic secrets passed down through the generations, they summon the elements of fire and wind to do their bidding, and command the creatures of the forest to aid them in battle. Shifting from their human forms into that of wild beasts, gives them abilities far beyond those of other mortals.

Skills

Elemental Skills
	Firestorm Effect: Wielding this ability, the Druid projects waves of molten earth that spread outward and burn a wide swath of destruction through his foes.
	Molten Boulder Effect: By virtue of this talent, a Druid can summon forth a huge, rolling mass of magma, bowling over smaller enemies in its path before bursting into fiery shards.
	Arctic Blast Effect: Aided by the will of the North Winds, the Druid conjures up a chilling torrent of frost that incapacitates all caught within the frozen blast.
	Fissure Effect: Sending his plea to the very core of the earth, the Druid rends the earth's very crust, tearing open volcanic vents beneath the feet of his adversaries, charring them to the bone.
	Cyclone Armor Effect: This skill allows the Druid to sheath himself in a swirling mass of charged particles that absorbs damage from fire-, cold-, and lightning-based attacks.
	Twister Effect: Calling to the winds, the Druid sends small whirlwinds advancing into the midst of his enemies, buffeting and stunning them as they go. The way to use Twister is to lay down a lot of them. It's best to aim past a monster sort of like Barbarian Whirlwind rather than click on a monster and cast. Once you have experience with Twister you can use it more effectively.
	Volcano Effect: A Druid trained in this ability possesses the power to summon from the bowels of the earth a violent eruption, raining molten rock down upon all nearby foes.
	Tornado Effect: Manipulating the great winds into a fearsome cyclone, the Druid sends this force of destruction into a throng of opponents, crushing into them and leaving devastation in its wake. The way to use Tornado is to lay down a lot of them. It's best to aim past a monster sort of like Barbarian Whirlwind rather than click on a monster and cast. Once you have experience with Tornado you can use it more effectively.
	Hurricane Effect: Particularly talented Druids can summon this most potent gale of devastation. A fierce storm wreaks havoc around him, while the Druid stays cradled within the gentle calm of its eye. Hurricane surrounds your character. Move your character close to monsters, and run around them in order to hit them with the Hurricane.
	Armageddon Effect: This terrible force of nature's vengeance rains down flaming stones around the Druid who cast it, pummeling any opponents foolish enough to be caught in its fury. Armageddon works a little differently than expected. Once cast it follows you around. To hit monsters, it's best to move in circles around the monsters until Armageddon hits them. As you get more experienced in using Armageddon, you will better judge how to position your character to get the best use from Armageddon. Armageddon works pretty well with Tornado. You can cast a Tornado while you're waiting to cast another Armageddon. You can cast Armageddon while in Werewolf or Werebear form.

Shapeshifting Skills
	Werewolf Effect: This ability allows an enlightened Druid to take on the form of a wolf, imparting to him quicker reflexes and heightened combat facilities. Although Werewolf gives an increase to Attack Speed, Werewolves and Werebears swing more slowly than the Druid in his natural form. This gives the impression that the Attack Speed increase is not working when in fact it does increase the Werewolf's Attack Speed. You can cast Armageddon while in Werewolf form.
	Lycanthropy Passive Effect: Changing shape is quite a taxing ordeal for a Druid, and he can only assume animal forms for a limited time. This skill enhances his constitution while in animal form, thereby increasing the amount of time he can remain transformed.
	Werebear Effect: This skill empowers the Druid with the capacity to assume the form of a savage bear, granting him great strength and fortitude. You can cast Armageddon while in Werebear form.
	Maul Werebear Only Effect: A Druid in Werebear form uses his mighty paws to rend brutal gashes in the flesh of his enemies. Using this ability, the fury of his assault increases with every opponent he kills.
	Feral Rage Werewolf Only Effect: When in wolf form, the Druid using this ability enters a frenzied rage, viciously tearing into foes and becoming heartier with each consecutive attack. The more hits you get in, the more life you will steal.
	Fire Claws Werewolf or Werebear Only Effect: While in his animal form, a Druid can use his affinity with the natural elements in order to supplement his attacks with a blazing assault.
	Rabies Werewolf Only Effect: When a Druid utilizes this ability, he toxifies his own saliva and attacks his enemies with a vicious bite, spreading a contagious disease that wracks the flesh of his infected opponents. Rabies is a very lethal attack. It constantly hits the afflicted player with poison damage about every second. Thus, once the target reaches 1 hp, Rabies' next cycle kills the player. The Rabies "aura" cannot be destroyed. Because the source of the poison is untouchable, all the antidotes in the game will not cure rabies directly.
	Shock Wave Werebear Only Effect: With a tremendous roar, the Druid shakes the earth, stunning any enemies in the surrounding area with the resultant tremor.
	Hunger Werewolf or Werebear Only Effect: Nature gives life, but it can also snatch it back. When a Druid using this ability bites an opponent, he drains some of his victim's vital essence, replenishing his own.
	Fury Werewolf Only Effect: The use of this skill drives the Druid into a bloodthirsty frenzy, attacking many foes with a raging fervor.

Summoning Skills
	Raven Effect: Summon Ravens to peck out the eyes of your enemies. Ravens will cast "blind" on enemies they attack. Damage increased to make this skill usefull!
	Poison Creeper Effect: A more subtle ally, these intelligent vines travel through the ground and use their cruel thorns to poison any opponents they contact.
	Oak Sage Effect: The Druid uses this ability to call upon a helpful spirit of Nature to enhance his well-being, as well as the health of his companions.
	Summon Spirit Wolf Effect: This gift of Nature allows the Druid to conjure forth one or more wolf allies who, with their mystical powers, provide the Druid a potent and ferocious colleague. Spirit Wolves are very helpful. It's best to place 5 points into this skill as quickly as possible to get 5 Spirit Wolves. The Spirit Wolves will attract the attention of Monsters keeping them away from you. You also don't have to worry about "wasting" points in Summon Spirit Wolf because their Passive Attack and Defense Bonuses will apply to your Dire Wolves and Grizzly Bear when you upgrade to those skills. Druids can now have both wolfs anf grizzly summoned simultaniously
	Carrion Vine Effect: The sentient plant summoned by this skill draws the corpses of your enemies into the ground, where it rapidly decomposes them, giving their life energies to the Druid who summoned it.
	Heart of Wolverine Effect: This ability grants the Druid the knowledge needed to summon into being a spirit that increases his skill in battle, as well as that of his party.
	Summon Dire Wolf Effect: This blessing from Nature imparts to the Druid the ability to summon several great wolves. Though the wolf is already fierce in combat, its savagery becomes greatly inflamed as it consumes the corpses of fallen foes. Druids can now have both wolfs anf grizzly summoned simultaniously
	Solar Creeper Effect: This skill conjures forth an intelligent plant that draws the enemy's dead deep into the earth, where it drains their spiritual essences and bestows them upon the Druid who summoned it.
	Spirit of Barbs Effect: The spirit invoked by this skill bestows upon the Druid and his company the mystical ability to reflect damage back at any opponents who injure them.
	Summon Grizzly Effect: This boon grants the Druid the aid of a tremendous wild bear with huge claws and great fangs that fights ferociously alongside him with terrible strength and unmatched fury. Druids can now have both wolfs and grizzly summoned simultaniously
