Cult of Obad-Hai
There is no true Cult to Obad-Hai as his faith accepts no hierarchy. Unlike the Old Faith, Oerth's largest druidic order, all members of the The Shalm's worship are treated as equals and they do not organize.
These druids live in simple harmony with whatever stretch of wilderness they call home. The Boundless are devoutly focused on their purpose: protecting the natural world and swiftly punishing those who would upset it.
Tenets of Faith
Obad-Hai's faithful teach that one should live in harmony with nature. That those who would damage the natural freedom of life deserve swift vengeance. Thus aberrations and the undead are the sworn enemies of these druids.
Yet to the disjointed practitioners of Obad-Hai's will, life is not merely the realm of fertility but also the realm of death. Death feeds life and life feeds death. These primal forces are bound to one another, never to be conquered or contained or separated.
Decay is the seed plot of fecundity and fecundity the harvest time of decay. As much as any living thing feasts, it must also prepare for famine. Death and life are an eternal weave creating the fabric of existence.
Worship
To worship Obad-Hai is to be ever in touch with the elements, weather, woods, waters, and beasts of the land across the seasons. To live as an equal member of nature.
One must accept things as they are, no matter the natural outcome. Worshipers work to protect the wilderness from the abnormal such as unnatural corruption, undeath, magic, and the overreach of civilization.
Shalm's blessings, rituals, and prayers often begin with references to birth and growth and end with references to death and dying. Common services when granted involve the consecration of earth, fire, plants, air, water, and beasts.
Rites in Obad-Hai's name are seasonal, often triggered by events such as the year's first birdsong or snowfall. Midsummer's Night is the holiest of all days. Shrines or holy sites usually consist of stone circles, menhirs or groupings of incredibly old oaks found deep in the wilderness.
