| style="background:lightyellow"|[[Nature]] is the prime skill of both [[druid]]s and [[wiccan]]s, 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]].
