They're a little bit like Circle of the Land, but rather than being focused on general spell casting, they're a little bit more focused on providing party support. They also are a little bit more supportive because they can conjure that totem that appears and can grant a buff to their allies. They get some class features that augment their summons like, for instance, beasts they summon have more hit points than normal. ![]() A little bit more of a spell caster because they're. This Druid's a little bit like the Circle of the Land Druid, that they're more. If you have to convince the creature to serve you, then that's more in the realm of you've actually called a creature and it has traveled through the planes and now you're trying to control it, compel it, or whatever you might be trying to do. ![]() If you just summon a creature, just shows up and does whatever you want, it's either mindless, like an Elemental or effectively mindless, or it's this idea it is a creature, but it's really just a magical representation of the creature that's brought in and made flesh. You actually speak to a creature from the other planes, but those spells also require you to try to find a way to control the creature or bargain with it to bring it over to your service. Typically, there are some like Planar Binding spells are more about. As long as the magic spell's active they obey your commands. You're not opening a portal and pulling a bear from the forest and throwing it into combat because also, these things. It is a creature in the sense like it can bleed, it can have spells cast on it and so like that, but it's a representation of a creature rather than the creature itself.

It's just this bear just hanging out in the woods and now you've pulled it through. I mean, obviously if you're summoning creatures with spells and having them attack, the idea isn't that it's not. ![]() This idea is that they have a very strong connection to the creatures of nature as opposed to the Circle of Land's connection to the land itself. ![]() The idea is really it's the Druid that you could imagine, is wandering around through the forest or any other wild area and they have rabbits following them, and birds, and things like that. They have some abilities to allow their summoned creatures to get some healing each round and things like that from a similar type. It's not a creature that fights, but it instead creates an aura around itself that can buff your allies. Beasts that they summon get a few buffs and they also have an ability to bring out totems to summon a totem creature, which is essentially a spirit. The interesting thing about Circle of the Shepherd is it's very good at summoning creatures. That's what their role is compared to a Druid, Circle of the Moon, which is more about bringing out the animal within or Circle of Land whose about protecting the land itself.
