My favorite part for others: the druid wild shaping into a T-rex and chomping some serious bad guy HP away!

@periaptgames In #1E #ADnD, #Druids had such a requirement. If they harvested natural spell components in the light of a full moon with a silver sickle and caught it in a wooden bowl, their spells would work perfectly. If they gathered their components in “lesser” ways, their spells would work at 80 or 60% strength, or something to that effect. I would have to look up the specifics later.
Corylus avellana, the hazel
the 'tree of the Druids' because of its position at the heart of The Otherworld
'leemers' is the hazel nut in Cumbrian dialect
male flowers hang on the catkins; tiny female bud-like, magenta flowers form on its branches

In Druid lore, two scarlet snake eggs were hidden within a willow tree - the Universe hatched from these two eggs – one containing the Sun, the other the Earth

The #Druids, and the #pagan #priests, were not easily swayed. Saint Patrick used force to destroy their temples and #holy places. The pagans were forced to abandon their beliefs and adopt #Christianity, or face #persecution.
Today, the memory of this #religious #oppression lives on, as the pagan #traditions are kept alive by those who refuse to forget their #heritage and the blatant #hypocrisy of #Christians everywhere. #SaintPatricksDay

#DiogenesLaertius about the #virtues of the #druids:
“The Druids make their pronouncements by means of riddles and dark sayings, teaching that the gods must be worshipped, and no evil is done, and manly behavior maintained.”
Dugie Dêuoi – “Honor the Gods”
Gneie ne drucos – “Do no evil”
Biue eni mêdê – “Live in honor”

About the #druids
"With regard to their actual course of studies, the main object of all education is, in their opinion, to imbue their scholars with a firm belief in the indestructibility of the human soul, which, according to their belief, merely passes at death from one tenement to another; for by such doctrine alone, they say, which robs death of all its terrors, can the highest form of human courage be developed. "

#Drunemeton gaulish for sanctum of oaks
Drunemeton is the name of the assembly of Bardos, Uatis, and Druides. So a Gaulish/Brittonic focus on the #Druids, #Ovates, and #Bards.
