Druins had originated on another plane of existence that had been inhospitable to their kind. A few Druin had entered a rift to Galara after the Dragon Wars and closed it behind them leaving their brethren behind. The druins that did make it to Galara made themselves at home fairly quickly and began to teach the elves that lived their how to control the magic around them. They began working with the elves to subjugate other creatures that called Galara home and began to build large empires clearing out anything in their way for expansion. They convinced the elves they could all be gods in their own right and didn't need the guidance of the gods they served. When the elves rebelled and the land they called home was cursed the elves turned on the druins and hunted them to extinction.
