Ygdrassil Union

The Union is perhaps the oldest and most true of orders that worships Ellynwyn and venerates the power of nature. Primarily a druid circle, it draws its names and origins from the Tree of Life, Ygdrassil, which once manifested itself in the fae realm known as Quelynos. The Tree, it was said, represented the very lifeforce of the world from branch to roots. In anger, Maugrim sought to destroy the tree but the elves repelled him at cost of their own immortality and homelands. Ellynwyn came to their aid but the tree was wounded by Maugrims black spear. Ellynwyn took the seeds of the tree and spread them across all Gaea. Where the seeds fell the lands became sanctified and in these groves the first mortal druids came to be. Druids who are trained in the tradition of the Ygdrassil Union believe that nature must be kept in a balance and that the lifeforce of the world ebbs and must be preserved at all costs. These Druids focus on the broader picture and the grand scheme of things as opposed to more local issues that smaller Druid Circles may deal with.

For Characters

Skinwalkers are often associated with the Union, as are many druids, rangers, and some barbarians. However, a person does not need to be a member of these classes to be a member of the Ygdrassil Union.
