Rules governing Advent classes

Floramancy is an extension of the fundamental principle of druidry, pulling power from an atua of a planet. A floramancer requests the power of an atua of earth and water, rather than directly providing the source of binding's power. Some floramancer's consider themselves druids specializing in and focusing on the plant domain. Other floramancers learn only what they need from druidry and consider themselves to be stewards or masters of the forests

Floramancers are able to summon Bauglins, powerful spirits of nature that grow up out of a large seed to become helpful companions to the floramancer. Each Bauglin has different strengths which can be used as needed. Floramancers can also manipulate plant matter, which brings a myriad of creative uses, including the ability to draw on the healing power of plants
