Druid Sects

Druidism originated in Khorvaire ixteen thousand years ago when Vvaraak, a black dragon (although some sources claim she is green), foretold a great planar invasion. In order to aid the humanoids in repelling this invasion she taught the first orc druids of the bond between the three progenitor dragons as well as how to tap into that power and use it to seal gates to other planes. These original druids are still known as the Gatekeepersand continue to protect Khorvaire from invasions of aberrations from other planes.

Other great druidic traditions would spring out of the Eldeen Reaches,. Deep in the ancient forests a great pine named Oalian was awakened. Oalian has since become the central influence in many of the Eldeen Sects of druidism including the Ashbound, the Wardens of the Wood , the Greensingers, and the Children of Winter. Though each of these traditions have varying beliefs they all share a commonality in their reverence for Oalian.
