//Rules governing [[Advent Classes]]//\\

Guardians of the natural world, druids learn a basic command of the four elements, and pursue a deep connection with nature. They are able to communicate with and make requests of the ki spirits of the natural world, even the spirit of the planet itself, tapping into a massive ki pool. They roam the wild places of their home planets, using their connection to nature to fight threats to the health and balance of the nature world

Druid abilities center around transforming and enhancing their bodies, controlling and enhancing natural phenomenon, and bridging the gap between themselves and the natural world. Their perches are a unique ability which provides a safe haven, a space safe from the prying eyes of seers, a nest even the ki spirits cannot reach.

**Special**: The following weather effects are under your control, within the range
  * Ambient temperature within 10°C of the natural state
  * Cloud Cover
  * Humidity
  * Rain
  * Snow
  * [[Sailing|Strong Breeze]]
If your target effect is the complete opposite of the current weather state, the changes take 15 minutes to materialize. Otherwise, it materializes within 6 rounds. This applies more strictly to creating precipitation on a clear day. GM discretion advised\\
**Talent Point Improvements**:\\
□ Reduce the required action by one level. Minimum action is Swift\\
□ Extend the range by 200 feet\\

**Range**: Opening a door, 10 feet\\
**Effect**: An opaque doorway to your perch the in the target tree is stretched open. //Requires an Oak Staff//\\
**Special (Use)**: \\
You perform a ritual over 1 hour which allows you to create a perch within a living tree. Your perch is a circular room, 15 feet in diameter. You may only have one perch at a time. Using a druid's [[druid#Oak Staff]], you can open a door from another tree, creating a portal between that tree and your perch, through which you may enter your perch. When you leave the perch, you exit back through the portal to your last location before entering the perch. Creatures that have your permission may also use a doorway which you have opened\\
**Special (Destruction)**: \\
If a tree used to create a portal to your perch is completely destroyed, a doorway will open in the original tree in which you made your perch. Leaving a perch in any way other than through a doorway destroys the perch and the contents inside are expelled as the tree returns to normal. If a tree used to make a perch is destroyed, the contents are expelled, and attempts to make a doorway to the perch fail\\
