Druid
Druids are spellcasters in Dungeons & Dragons who draw their power from nature to cast spells, protect the wild, and maintain balance. Their most iconic ability is Wild Shape, which allows them to transform into various animals. They are versatile and can fill many roles in a party, including healing, damage, and utility, making them a full spellcasting class that is tough yet vulnerable to certain effects.
Druid
Druids are devoted protectors of nature, harnessing its power and embodying its resilience and fury. They draw their magic from nature itself or from nature deities, focusing on spells related to animals, elements, and natural forces.
Druids can transform into animals and often prioritize maintaining balance in the natural world, opposing forces that disrupt this equilibrium, such as elemental cults or unnatural creatures. They see themselves as extensions of nature rather than its masters and strive to preserve both ecological balance and harmony between civilization and the wild. When significant threats arise, druids take on active roles as adventurers to safeguard the natural world.

Spores
The Circle of Spores was a druidic circle whose members revered the inherent power of mold and other fungi, specifically their role in the maintaining the balance between life, death, and undeath.These druids believed that mold and fungi held the power to transform decaying organic material into new, and strangely beautiful, forms of existence. They held true that the ongoing cycle of life and death were integral to the balance of the natural world.
To them, death was not an end, but rather a new beginning. Unlike other practitioners, Circle of Spores druids did not believe undead were abominations of nature, but rather a third alternative to life and death. Undead beings that sought to snuff out all life, or cheat a deserved death however, were considered abhorrent. For nature to be in balance, all three aspects of existence should be in approximate fluctuation with the other two.

Moon
The Circle of the Moon comprised druids that were seen as among the fearsome protectors of the wild. They dwelled within the most perilous stretches of wilderness, perfectly comfortable surrounding themselves with only animals and beasts for tendays at a time.
Druids of this circle drew upon the power of Selûne itself to bolster their shape-changing abilities. They could wild shape more swiftly than other druids, and chose from the forms of more bestial animals. Additionally, transformed druids could heal themselves using unspent primal magic power. Wild shaped druids of the Moon were considered far more efficient predators than those from other circles.
