The Hartstone is a class of druids, who can meld with the forest itself and cause nature to rise to its defense. The class is bonded to White Hart, a Great Spirit of Nature who takes the form of a giant snowy-white stag.
The Hartstone belong to the druid archetype. Thus, they are required to take LowMagic as a common skill before being able to study Nature magic. Once having mastered Nature magic, they then specialize in Druidry or Wildewood. Their main secondary skill is Totems, which when they master will allow them to specialize in the Stag totem. At some point, a Hartstone druid decides to become a runic druid by taking the skill of Runes, or a Keeper of Hart's Secret by taking the skill of Dreamweaving, or an ecologic druid by taking Hunting and its specialization of Ecology, or a shamanic druid by taking Shamanism. Druids may take Alchemy as a trade skill.
The Sacred Grove
Atop a hill in the southwestern Serenwilde Forest stands a large monolith, the entrance to the Sacred Grove of the Hartstone. Many stones, each with a story to tell, stand guard in the Sacred Grove. Dain, the guild tutor, resides within the Grove.
History
- The Hartstone guild was dissolved in 473 CE, but druids of the Hartstone Circle still practice the class. (Events #380)
