Nature is often defined and controlled by its seasons. Winter is a domineering season that drives most of nature into hibernation and shelter to escape its harsh weather and frigid temperatures. For some life, winter is instead a season to thrive in, and hardy enough creatures can becomes kings of the cold. Druids of the Long Winter tap into the elemental power of winter as well as endurance and tenacity of those creatures that thrive in it.
