Get the droit de seigneur mug.A hybrid class in World of Warcraft.
- They have comparable healing to that of a priest
- Can ressurect in battle
- Can spec into a feral druid, turning into a fairly decent tank
- Moonkin form provides a fair utility in parties of casters
Though somewhat whiners in the WoW forums, druids have persevered with a somewhat awkward itemization issue, and look forward to the expansion to become considered more fully.

Get the droaded mug.1 Originally an educated caste within Celtic society that seem to have been law-givers, priests, magicians, doctors and natural philosophers. It is recorded that they committed nothing to writing, preferring instead to learn by rote the considerable amount of lore at their disposal.
Druids were severely denigrated by roman propaganda, especially that of Julius Ceasar. Unfortunately as the romans systematically set to work wiping out the druids, the only records we have of them are the distorted accounts from the very culture that wished to destroy them.
2 A member of any number of modern orders or religions that stem from a romantic 18th century, sanitized and christianised revival of Druidry
3 A member of any number of neopagan groups that seeks to re-discover and re-construct a working animist religion and set of magical practices that focus on native (pre-roman) British and Celtic traditions.
4 In the minds of the modern illiterate a character class from various tabletop and online RPGs.
