Mystic Ranger
The best of the Foulden spiritual warrior mindset finds it’s expression in these men who love their forest, and the Spirit whom they believe indwells it. Combining the cunning and prowess that comes from a life in the wild with the meditative spirituality that grants them magical powers, these men protect and explore the Foulde with the utmost skill and reverence. This balance can be difficult, and those that seek it never reach the full potential of their more focused counterparts. Yet the combination of their strengths makes those who find that balance even more fearsome to those who would threaten their beloved home. These deadly devotees to the Spirit’s ways are equable and meditative, seeking the stillness in which they find their connection to the Spirit most tenable. It is this connection that guides them, and not infrequently grants them direction, visions or even new powers from the Spirit. In the Foulde, nearly every military leader is a Mystic Ranger. Their magical abilities combined with their sylvan prowess and insight are often the key to success in battle. Outside the Foulde, they are generally misunderstood and a little feared, (their Foulden stature mostly to blame), though anyone who gets to know them will quickly find their kindness and mercy in friendship exceeds even their fierceness in battle.Role: Mystic Rangers are fit as scouts, healers, support casters, or medium combattants.

The Mystic Ranger is unique among divine casters, since they must learn their spells either through revelation by the Spirit, observation, or the instruction of an elder. Mystic Ranger spells are never recorded. At fifth level and every third MR level thereafter, they may choose to learn a new spell in place of one they already know. They cast spells as a Druid, (including DC), and their spells must be selected from the Druid spell list. See the tables below for spells known and cast/day.
