===Night elf druids===
 
  +
| faction=Neutral
Night elven druidic traditions extend back further than most races have existed. The demigod Cenarius taught the druidic arts to the kaldorei early in their history, and the most devout of night elf druids honor and pass on his original teachings. A few were there when Cenarius provided his tutelage and learned directly from the demigod. The iconic night elf druid is a spiritual creature with powers that tap into worlds beyond most mortal knowledge. Green energy plays around his feet, and he moves unhindered through secret forest paths. Night elf druids have always guarded their people against the Burning Legion, and over the ages they developed methods to strike past the demons’ defenses.

== Objectives ==
Night elf druids claim that they can still hear the voice of Cenarius, warning them when danger is imminent and giving them gentle urgings as to the best way to avoid attacks. Perhaps this voice is nature itself, protecting those who protect it. The night elf druid can drop into a deep slumber. While hibernating, he does not need to eat or drink, and he barely needs to breathe — others must be careful to determine that he still lives. When the druid enters hibernation, any poisons working within him are suspended, and he does not bleed. His breathing is so shallow that he does not suffer effects from inhaled toxins or other dangers, and he can survive for a year on the amount of air he would normally need in a day. He heals at twice the normal rate. When the night elf druid enters hibernation, he sets the conditions to awaken. He can choose a specific amount of time (“twenty-four hours”) or some other event, such as, “When the sun strikes my eyes” or “When I hear the call of the horn of Cenarius.”{{Cite|APG|22, 23}}

== Description ==
====Golden eyes====
 
  +
It is time that I asked a favor of you, <name>.
Among night elves, gold-colored eyes, as opposed to the traditional silver, are a sign of inherent druidic potential. Among the class-obsessed night elves who lived prior to the War of the Ancients, gold eyes were rare, and thus viewed as a sign of underlying greatness. [[Queen Azshara]] and [[Illidan Stormrage]], both extremely powerful sorcerers, had golden eyes. The night elves became vastly more egalitarian since the War's end, and thus, gold eyes are now far more common. In addition, druidism spread throughout night elven society, and many night elves develop gold eyes after birth if they practice the art.[http://www.wow-europe.com/en/info/encyclopedia/508.xml]

Far to the north of Eastwall Tower, hidden among the hills, is the Mossflayer capital city of Zul'Mashar. It was here that I was born, and here that I died.
Though gold eyes are a sign that the individual has a natural ability for druidic magic, it does not mean that all gold-eyed night elves become druids, or that silver-eyed night elves cannot. [[Malfurion Stormrage]] himself was born with silver eyes, and developed golden eyes after studying druid magic.[http://www.wow-europe.com/en/info/encyclopedia/508.xml]

===Tauren druids===
 
{{Stub/Lore}}
 
According to the [[Tauren]] lore, [[Cenarius]] instructed them first in Druidism, as recounted in their [[Tauren mythology|myth]] ''[[Forestlord and the First Druids]]''. It was in fact [[Malfurion Stormrage]] who was the first mortal druid, and Cenarius's greatest student[http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/encyclopedia/349.xml][http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=43884861&pageNo=4&sid=1#62]. It is likely though that Cenarius may have met and befriended the tauren.

Elements of druidism, which had been taught by Cenarius and then forgotten over millennia, have been recently reincorporated into tauren society, further highlighting their service to nature.

== Progress ==
The night elf druids were recently joined in the [[Cenarion Circle]] by the [[Tauren]]. During the war, Malfurion had befriended [[Hamuul Runetotem]] and taught him of druidism. Hamuul later became the first tauren to join the Cenarion Circle and later the archdruid of the Tauren race.

===Centaur druids===
 
  +
*{{Patch 4.0.3a|note=Added.}}
Like all of Cenarius's children, [[centaur]] favor druidism over other divine arts. However, centaur druids are not in the least respectable. Rather than striving for a balance with nature, centaur druids control nature, using it to further their own ambitions. If an animal or plant refuses to subject itself to the centaur's rule, then the creature finds itself either enslaved or, more commonly, destroyed. It takes weeks for night elf or tauren druids to correct the damage a centaur druid inflicts on any territory it comes across.{{Cite|HPG|210}}

===High elven and blood elven druids===

{{elinks-quest|27481}}
[[High elves]] have also practiced druidism; they had [[druid magi]]. The [[Elven Ranger]]s have practiced it, too. It seems some [[blood elves]] have also been trained in the art of the druid. See [[High Botanist Freywinn]].

===Lost One druids===
 
Some tribes of the draenei [[Lost Ones]] are known to practice Druidism. For an example, the [[Feralfen]] tribe. It is probably something that happened after the separation from the Draenei, as neither Draenei nor Broken Draenei are known to practice Druidism.
