Sacred 2:Dryad

THE STORY

The Dryads live a secluded life in harmony with their environment. They go hunting, they are skillful in using poison and traps and they observe their traditions diligently. Most of them never see life outside their homeland and generally, they are not interested in affairs beyond their borders.

Their tight bond with nature bestows abilities deriving from the very strengths of the wilderness upon these fighters of the forest.

Despite being cut off from the rest of the world, even the Dryads are being affected by the changes that the Great Machine is causing. Entire areas of their habitat have been destroyed by uncontrolled T-Energy, and creatures that the energy didn’t destroy mutated to powerful monstrosities, which are now haunting their forests.

The most powerful of the Dryad hunters are even knowledgeable of the dark arts of Voodoo.
