The more powerful druidic spells, as well as their widerrange of weaponry, make up for the fact that druids are unable to use anyarmor or shields other than leather armor and wooden shields (metallicarmor spoils their magical powers). They must speak or read spells aloud.Due to their involvement with living, growing things, druids have nopower to turn or control undead, demons, or devils.Druids can be visualized as medieval cousins of what the ancient Celticsect of Druids would have become had it survived the Roman conquest.They hold trees (particularly oak and ash), the sun, and the moon asdeities. Mistletoe is the holy symbol of druids, and it gives power to theirspells. They have an obligation to protect trees and wild plants, crops, andto a lesser extent, their human followers and animals. Thus, druids willnever destroy woodlands or crops no matter what the circumstances. Eventhough a woods, for example, were evilly hostile, druids would not destroyit, although nothing would prevent them from changing the nature of theplace if the desire and wherewithal existed. In similar fashion, they avoidslaying wild animals or even domestic ones except as necessary for self-preservation and sustenance.If druids observe any creature destroying their charges, the druids areunlikely to risk their lives to prevent the destruction. Rather, it is probablethat the druids will seek retribution and revenge at a later date as</blockquote>
