Druids

The Druids  are a clan of humans who live deep within the forests of Britannia.

Overview

They are referred to as the philosophers and sorcerers of the forest. When a person dies, it is customary for them to guard the buried corpses to prevent any possession from evil spirits.

Appearance
Their appearance does not differ from normal humans, however a common, but not universal trait of theirs, is white or silver hair.

Powers and Abilities
The druids are said to be able to use the power of nature to heal grievous wounds that are considered fatal. They have many secret techniques although condemned the Acid power. These secret techniques include:


 * Purge「浄化パージ Jōka (Pāji); literally meaning "Purify"」: A secret druid technique that erases "abominable" souls, such a vampires and demons. It has also shown to be able to return human turned vampires back into human, albeit still killing them.
 * Ark「聖櫃アーク Seiki (Āku); literally meaning "Holy Chest"」: An archetypal magic technique of the Goddess clan that counteracts darkness by disintegrating it with light particles. The target is enveloped in a dazzling sphere of light that breaks apart their body.
 * Shisha Shieki「死者使役ししゃしえき Shisha Shieki; literally meaning "Enslavement of the Dead"」: A forbidden technique passed among the druids. It gives Hendrickson the power to resurrect the dead, but can only be used twice on the same person. The soul deteriorates with each resurrection, significantly weakening their abilities.

Trivia
