Bards' Grove

Many voices raised as one: the voice of the people.

Little is known for certain of the ways and practices of the ancient druids. Classical writers stated that these mysterious men refused to write their secrets down, preferring to pass their knowledge from generation to generation orally. The writer Diodorus Siculus was the first to discuss the idea that there were distinct roles within the druid system, and it was Strabo who divided these into three separate classes; those who studied moral philosophy were known as the 'druidai'; the diviners and specialists in the natural world were the 'o'vateis'; and the poets and singers were the 'bardoi'. The bardoi, or bards, were responsible for passing on history in poetry and song. History always included the brave deeds of warriors as well as knowledge of the gods and the natural world.

2	200	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Bri_Drwdae) Drwdae (Britannic Druids) The Drwdae (Droo-day) are not typically warriors; however, there are British warrior-druids. War is considered a fine profession, and even the best educated members of society sometimes engage in it. These particular Drwdae are warriors however, akin in many ways to the Carnutes of Gaul, insofar as they train a great deal and have the duty of protecting sacred places. They are extremely well motivated, disturbing to enemies, and inspiring to allies. Still, they are too few in number to fight alone and must be supported by others if they are to be effective on the battlefield.

3	200	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Bri_Kluddargos) Kluddargos (Sword Masters) Kluddargos (Klud-arr-gus) are British champions who use very specialized weapons. Their two-handed longswords have especially heavy blades and require years of practice to master. Able to afford such weapons, they can also afford high-quality armour, including very fine-quality chain shirts. Like other heroes and champions, they march to battle to inspire their fellow tribesmen, but their weapons also give them a tactical purpose: to annihilate enemy armour. Their swords are truly fierce and destructive: their great swings split helmets, smash shields, and collapse cuirasses into the body. The heads they collect will surely be from grotesquely mangled bodies, obliterated by the force of their blows, and the wielders of such weapons will often take satisfaction in finding their foes' bodies left in such a state.
