| Nature is the prime skill of both druids and wiccans, and reflects their bond with the natural kingdom, especially forests. Earth magic is drawn from the Ethereal Plane, and druids and most especially wiccans maintain close bonds with the fae. Upon mastering nature, druids and wiccans move on to specialize in two very different paths: Druidry and Wicca. |

Sense
If you can survey a location, you will be able to sense whether or not an elemental is infused in that location. You can also sense any runes infused at that location.
Talisman
| Syntax |
| NATURE TALISMAN NATURE CURSE <target> |
| Damage Type: 100% Magic Can Target Denizens |
For those who travel nature's path, it is very important to wield a sacred talisman. If you take the wicca path, nature will gift you a mystic athame dagger, and if you take the path of the druid, she will grant you a sacred golden sickle. The talismans have a special attack.
Barkskin
| Syntax |
| NATURE BARKSKIN |
| Damage Modifier: 1/8 blunt and cutting resistance |
Your skin will become as hard as bark, offering protection against physical damage.
Blend
| Syntax |
| NATURE BLEND ON/OFF |
When you are in the forests, you can blend yourself into the foliage, hiding from prying eyes.
Rooting
| Syntax |
| NATURE ROOTING [OFF] |
With your talisman in hand, you can root yourself to the earth and become resistant to unwanted summons.
Appending OFF will remove this defense.
Nut
| Syntax |
| PLANT NUT |
If you are a member of a nature commune, there is most likely some method of getting a nut from the [Great Tree
Torc
| Syntax |
| NATURE TORC |
| Damage Modifier: 1/8 magic resistance |
Nature will grant you a sacred torc to wear, which will offer some protection against magical attacks. Significantly, it also stores mana which will automatically be used when you cast spells.
| Additional Notes: |
| Reduces mana costs by 10%, until the stored mana is depleted. |
FaerieFire
| Syntax |
| NATURE FAERIEFIRE <target> |
Surrounding someone with faerie fire will afflict them with luminosity.
Vines
| Syntax |
| NATURE VINES <target> |
When in a forest, you can command the vines to come alive and wrap around an enemy.
Note: If you are treeform (Wildewood or Wyrdenwood) you can use this anywhere, even outside of a forest.
Growth
| Syntax |
| NATURE GROWTH |
In order to help the green, you can use your powers of nature to make herbs grow faster in a location.
Flow
| Syntax |
| NATURE FLOW <target> NATURE FLOW NODE <node num> (Druids only) |
From a forest location, you can flow through to anyone who also stands in a forest location of the same type.
Guard
| Syntax |
| NATURE GUARD |
| Power: 1 (Any) (Or from Powerstone) Cost: 1 mistletoe |
Herbs and other plants are delicate creations, and you are able to protect them from fire, taint or anything else that may harm them. No herbalist will be able to harvest plants in that location below 10. This protection even extends to preventing plants from going dormant during their natural yearly cycle, though their rate of growth will still be negligible during down cycles. You will also need a sprig of mistletoe to guard a location.
Communing
Your close relationship with the Ethereal Plane grants you a 5/10 bonus to mana.
Those that embrace Wildewood or Wyrdenwood will find themselves with a 5/10 bonus to health instead.
Rain
| Syntax |
| NATURE RAIN |
Calling down a cool shower will put out fires or cleanse a room of bad smells.
| Additional Notes: |
| Removes skunk spray, room fires, and ablaze on everyone in the room. |
Gate
| Syntax |
| TRANSVERSE <plane> |
You can travel to or from the ethereal realms from any planar gate.
Master
At this point in your training of Nature, you have progressed where you must specialize in an aspect of this skill to continue learning. If you have not yet selected a specialization, see SKILLCHOICE LIST to see what is available. There may be a choice between two or more specializations.
