[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 8202649, member: 92511"] According to 5e, I believe, it is considered "divine" since they share a good amount (nearly all) of spells from the Druid's list. But that, ultimately, is a campaign/setting specific question. How do you (or your DM) define things within your game's setting's world? Myself, I long ago split Druid's "Nature" magic off from Cleric's "Divine" magic (and/or Arcane). So magic operates in 3 spheres in my homebrew world: [LIST] [*]Divine (magic powered from the "essence" of the gods) [*]Nature (magic powered from the inherent "radiation" of "natural world," itself, which includes ye olde "Inner Planes" of Faerie, Shadow, the Elemental, and Energetic planes. So, no, Druids in my setting do not worship "nature personifications [gods]," but Nature -capital "N"- itself, and "the Balance" of the whole) [*]and, of course, the Arcane: magic powered by the cosmic energies that pervade the multiuniverse, which supernatural creatures, spirits/demons/et al. extraplanars, other supernatural abilities (like psychic powers) are fueled by, and the deities themselves, all access. Part of the reason that arcane spellcasters pursue arcane mastery in the first place, is that they wish to command the magical power that all of these other types of beings use...without having to "filter" or "water it down" through Nature or the gods.
