| Archdruids of the Circle of Rage can become truly frightening creatures when angered. |
Circle of Rage[edit]
Druid Subclass
Druids of the Circle of Rage are enforcer’s of nature’s wrath. Their order is typically seen during times of monster outbreaks. Many believe they unleash these outbreaks as punishment for abusing natural resources. They haunt the deepest parts of the wilderness, where they might go for weeks on end before crossing paths with another humanoid creature, let alone another druid.
Some druids join the Circle of Rage out of hatred for the civilized world. They could have been betrayed by a loved one, cheated by someone in a position of power, etc. They often only find comfort in the presence of nature alone, and become aggressive when other humanoids approach, sometimes towards other druids.
