Druid (Baldur's Gate)

This page about druids is made for Baldur's Gate. See Druid for a specific version for Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn and Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition.

Druids are priests dedicated to nature and balance and any disciplined druid is a true neutral character. They can use priest spells, but they all are related to nature and thereby have a fewer amount of spells availabe to them than clerics. Character abilities of the druid are Wisdom and Charisma. Their weaponry and armor they are allowed to use due to their ethos is limited to equipment that is primitive, related to their rituals or made from material found on the surface. They can use daggers, staffs, slings, spears, clubs, scimitars and darts as weapons. They can use leather or hide armor to protect their body, or Ankheg Plate Mail and all headgear to protect themselves. They can use bucklers and small shield if their other hand is available.

Character abilities
Note: For the information of this table the human race was used, because they have no character bonunes/penalties related to race and therefore act like a 'neutral'. For other races this may be slightly different. See Character Abilities for more information.

Shapeshifting abilities
Druids unlock their shapeshifting abilities at lvl 7 and these are found under the special abilities. They can three different formes to shapeshift in:
 * Transform Wolf
 * Transform Brown Bear
 * Transform Black Bear
