About this class
Commanding the spirits of nature is a delicate and wonderful endeavour. Those who are attuned to the flow of energy between living things may seek to harness this energy, using it to invigorate allies and manipulate lifeforms. Shamans seek to protect the balance of life energy within the world, preserving the beauty in the environment using the resources it provides. Having dominion over plants, animals, fungus and the spirits of nature are some of the methods in which a shaman may protect their world. Healing and preserving the people and pets they interact with who share their ideals while aiding the defeat of those who do not.
