Religious Wilder (Druid)

Priests of Beade, the Mother of All, the druids religiously tend to Thrael; the vegetation, the wildlife, all things that grow are under their domain. Each member of this holy sect cultivates a forest grove and maintains that which flourishes there.

This path relies on its spells offensively and its decent parry defensively.
