Druidist

Druidism refers to the highly diverse native religions of the Celts found on both British Isles of Great Britain and Ireland and within mainland Europe (modern day France, Belgium, Spain, Portugal, Southern Germany ( Bavaria, Austria, Switzerland). Druidism has a pantheon of Gods, and each tribe will often have their own patron God or Goddess that they will consider the supreme God. Druidism is named for the equivalents of priests within the religion, called druids. A druid is generally the oldest member of a tribe, and is well versed in both traditional stories, which the druid passes on to the other members of the tribe, and in medicine.
