       The Grand Druids of Krynn
       [/center]
       Grand Druid Kaelan (the Hermit)
       Cerlin of Balifor grew up on the tales of Myrrdian and his
       travels, but one story always stuck with him. The story of
       Merwellyn. He did not even know if it still existed after the
       devastation of the Cataclysm. But he means to try.  On his way
       from the east, he came across a strange sight: a young boy
       sitting with a Treant. This boy had wandered into the woods and
       become lost and could not find his way home, and was being kept
       alive by a Treant's wisdom and stayed with the elder tree, but
       winter was coming in a couple of months. The Treant requested
       that Cerlin take the boy with him, and Cerlin agreed. Cerlin
       died in an unknown incident, but he wanted Kaelan to succeed him
       as Guardian of Merwellyn. In 350 AC, Kaelan was approached by
       emissaries of Chislev to tell him that Chislev had chosen him to
       bring the light of our religion back to our people.
       Grand Druid Talidaar'quithusaran Arbagon
       Talidaar was born in Qualinesti, a Half-Elf who lived on the
       fringe of Qualinesti. Talidaar was a protégé of Grand Druid
       Kaelan. In 367 AC 4.14, a Grand Moot is held at the Ancient
       Stones, holy of Chislev. At the age of one hundred and
       thirty-one (131) years old, Grand Druid Kaelan abdicates his
       position to move closer to his Goddess and to serve her will as
       a Hierophant Druid. he nominates Talidaar Arbagon to take his
       place. The Half-Elf is chosen by Kaelan and Chislev to stand as
       Chislev's new Grand Druid and Guardian of Merwellyn.
       Great Druid Elandriel
       Elandriel was a Qualinesti Elf and the Great Druid and Guardian
       over Qualinesti and Abanasinia. This is who Talidaar chose to
       succeed him.
       Elandriel led the Druid Order through the end of the Fourth Age
       and for some of the Fifth Age, working with Talidaar and
       Goldmoon on the mysticism that might help Krynn. Elandriel was
       still considered Grand Druid because he could not raise in
       experience until after the gods returned after the War of Souls.
       He traveled to Southern Ergoth to defeat the Dragon Overlord
       Sleet, but was assassinated unexpectedly.
       
       Grand Druid Sverre
       A Kagonesti elf woman of Southern Ergoth. The third bearer of
       the Staff of Chislev operated from Southern Ergoth and was a
       wise follower of Chislev. Chislev chose Great Druid Sverre to be
       the next Grand Druid of Krynn. Even-handed, but firm, she was
       assassinated mysteriously.
       Grand Druid Wrynn Darkfeather
       Great Druid Wrynn Darkfeather Kagonesti Female of Abanasinia was
       the Great Druid of Southern Ergoth after Great Druid Sverre
       became the Grand Druid. Great Druid Wrynn Darkfeather was chosen
       by Chislev to be the next Grand Druid of Krynn. Wrynn bears the
       Staff of Chislev.
