Cailleach, known as “The Veiled One,” is an elderly woman who serves as a protector and guardian of the forests, wielding a magical staff made of wood with blooming flowers atop it. Her mysterious and ethereal presence exudes wisdom, compassion, and an affinity for nature’s magic, enabling her to cast spells up to the 8th level and harness the mystical energies of the natural world.

Clad in robes that blend with the forest’s hues, Cailleach moves with grace and purpose through the woods she watches over, her steps guided by an ancient connection to the land and its denizens. With a staff that blooms with flowers and channels her druidic magic, she weaves spells of protection, healing, and growth to nurture the forests and defend them from harm.

Cailleach’s influence extends beyond the mystic arts, as she possesses limited control over the weather, allowing her to shape and manipulate the elements to safeguard the forests under her care and maintain the delicate balance of the natural world. Her bond with the land and its creatures is exemplified by the flock of Ravens that serve as her messengers, carrying her words and will throughout the woods and beyond, spreading news and aiding communication in her domain.

Nestled within the heart of the forest lies Green Home, Cailleach’s enchanted cabin hidden amidst the trees and foliage, serving as her sanctuary and dwelling where she finds solace and connection to the tranquil beauty and harmony of the natural world. A beacon of light and protection in the wilderness, Cailleach embodies the essence of a wise and benevolent guardian, safeguarding the forests and nurturing life with her magic and presence.
