Druids are ancient people who originated from the Celtic tribes at a time when people had to live close to nature in order to survive. Druidism was an earth based pagan worship that placed emphasis on the worship of all aspects of nature. The druids were an elite class among the Celts, marked as priests who possessed both legal powers and responsibilities. They were capable of magical powers such as divination, prophesying, controlling the weather, levitation and healing.
