~Lore of Druids~

Meldian was a beautiful elf who dwelled in Mirkwood. She loved nature and everything related to it. One day she saw a descendant of Beorn, Shapen who was shapeshifting in to a bear. She loved him for he was so peacefully involved with the nature and Shapen loved him back. Together they gave birth to a son, they named him Meldian. He was both elf and both beorning his kind was called druid by elves later on. They moved to the hut of Shapen near the Misty Mountains. On the 11th birthday of Malfurin their home was attacked by goblins. Shapen sacrificed himself for his wife and son. Meldian fled back to Mirkwood with his son. But elves hated them. They called Malfurin an abomination and Meldian She-bear. They banished her and his son. Life was very hard for them was the forest was full of terrors. Evil spiders attacked Meldian and her son, Meldian managed to defeat them but she was gravely wounded. She tried to heal herself but the poison of spiders was too strong. Each day Meldian's life force was fading and one day she collapsed. Malfurin cried near his dying mother he was helpless. When he too begun to crawl in despair he heard a voice deeper than the seas, merrier than the twittering of words, wiser than the giant oak trees. It was the voice of the mother, the first mother. The voice told him, "Do not be afraid Malfurin for you are the savior of this world and great power lies in you. Men will consume life, you shall preserve it. As for your mother, she shall be a beacon of hope, immortal beyond the grasp of men". After these words Meldians body glowed with life energy and her body transformed in a great tree, the tree of life. to be continue

~Hierarchy~

Arch Druid

Arch Druids are the heads of the inner workings of the Order as a whole. In addition to the responsibilities of an Elder, Arch Druids are responsible for maintaining and managing the Order as well as keeping its Elder Druids and Druids in check. This includes ensuring that the amount of members in the Order do not dwindle, up-keeping the Tree of Life, maintaining relations with other factions/nations, as well as punishing those in the Order who have done some wrong, among a variety of other things. Arch Druids are seen as the “managers” of the Order, as without them it would fall apart and its purpose would be lost. Arch Druids may call for a moot or a shun. There can be three Arch Druids. Arch Druids are members of the Council of Wild. They rule with the Council with voting. One can become an Arch Druid in two ways. First day if there is an opening The Mother can select a druid as Arch Druid and show this with a holy sign (it rarely happens or never happens at all). Second way is being selected as an Arch Druid by the Elders by vote.

Current Arch Druids:

Remulos the Brave

Fandral the Wise

Talran of the Wild

Elder Druid

Elder Druids are Druids who play the role of teachers in the Order. Elders have the responsibility of “guiding” Dedicants and assisting them in their journey to Druidism. Elders do this by teaching and instructing the Druids, as well as by giving them tasks and trials to test and develop their abilities so that they are prepared to be attuned. Elders do not only teach Druids, they may also assist Druids who are still searching for their role in the Order. A Druid is made into an Elder if the Council of Wild deem him or her worthy of the position.

Current Elder Druids: -none
