A Corellion, the force of Nature  

Corellion is probably the most enigmatic and powerful of all minor forces, he was born from the union of the apeiron and life, when they merged into something that could not be described as pure apeiron nor life; nature. Ever since ascan times, sages have argued whether or not he is a minor force, considering the greatness and beauty of his element. Some sages have even catalogued Corellion as the final Ancient One, but the truth is as yet unknown.

The elves are his earthly children, the beings he created according to his design. Corellion is to the elves as Ascan is to the humans; the force of nature loves the elves above all others, and has appeared in the world of mortals numerous times to counsel them in times of need.

Needless to say, the elven cultures have created several religions surrounding Corellion, and most of the priests of nature belong to this race.

 

The Elven priests of Nature

The elven priests of nature are very similar to druids, but unlike the druids, these priests are an integral part of elven society (though they still don't like living in cities), they do not only are guardians of nature, but they also are keepers of the elven way of life. They are advisors and teachers of the elven culture, and should a war with other race begin, they can also be warriors.

There are some elven cultures where civilisation has begun to cut a swath of destruction on the wild areas. And in those places the priests are to teach the leaders to know how much to take from nature on the name of progress, and just how much they are to give in return.

They are teachers and sages, entrusted with the sacred duty of protecting nature and guiding the elven race towards their destiny to be one with the great creator, the all powerful force of nature.

Whether it is the old rivalry between humans and elves or a true religious concern, the priests of nature have become quite concerned with the growing human population in Astar. It is their belief that the humans have no regard for nature and they are poisoning the perfection of elven society.

Just in case you haven't figured it out already, only elves may become priests of nature

Druids

The name or conceptions may change, but the supreme force that both the druids and elves worship is one and the same. Druids in Raokrá are the same as everywhere else, so if you want to know their abilities, you should look in the player's handbook.
