There were once high elven druids before the [[Second War]]. These '''druid magi''' used arcane and runic magic (a form of magic that has a connection to [[ley lines]]) to create [[runestones]], like the one at Caer Darrow which was later turned into the [[Altar of Storms]]. Some of the most ancient druid lore was passed down to the half-elves (resulting in the half-elf [[savagekin]]). It would seem that most high elven druids are long gone, but it appears some remaining ones may have joined the blood elves, such as [[Freywinn]] in Tempest Keep. High elven [[ranger]]s are practitioners of druidism. However, those who were killed by the Scourge lost those powers when risen in undeath, having to unlearn what they once believed in order to become [[Dark Ranger|dark ranger]]s. It would seem that most high elf druids likely do not have shape shifting abilities, but rather just a keen sense of nature.{{Cite|HPG|41}}

==Notes==
 
There is very little known about high elven and blood elven druids. It is unknown it they belong to a single organization such as the elven [[ranger]]s, or split amongst several organizations.

According to the [[Warcraft II manual]], the Runestone at Caer Darrow was erected by high elf [[druid (lore)|druid]]s.{{Cite|W2Man|35}} Later sources refer to the runestones as being crafted by magi<ref>http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/burningcrusade/townhall/history-be.html</ref>, which seems more fitting with the additional development of the high elven society in [[Warcraft III]]. Although, the definition of magi does not contradict a druidic source of magic, as there can be magi within druidism by real-world definition <ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Druidry</ref><ref>http://www.electricscotland.com/bible/connections1.htm</ref>. Even the Warcraft II manual made a connection to the "arcane" and "magiks" when discussing the Runestones created by the high elven "druids".

However, according to the [[Warcraft: The Roleplaying Game|Warcraft RPG]], runic magic has some ties to druidic magic{{Cite|MM&M|20}}. Some half-elves (offspring of high elves) are even reported to have retained druidic magic passed down in their culture, becoming [[savagekin]].{{Cite|APG|61}} It is said that high elven rangers that have become forsaken turn to the ways of [[Dark Ranger|dark rangers]] once finding out they can no longer use their powers of druidism{{Cite|HPG|41}}. In Burning Crusade, [[High Botanist Freywinn]] is a blood elf druid, and many of the Sunseeker Blood Elves hold druidic abillities, all of them residing (appropriately) in the [[Botanica]] of [[Tempest Keep]].
