Fairy Rings

Fairy Rings are a form of Druidic magic that look like a circle of mushrooms. The Druids use Fairy Rings to guide the ancient wills of their Aspects, but they can also be used for other means. There is folklore that has developed throughout the lands since Aegis that speaks of the madmen of the Fairy Rings. Those who are unaware of how such magic works will be effected in various ways. However, there are those who seem to not be affected by these strange circles, at least not badly. Save for the Druii, there were ones who sought the power of the rings. Indeed, Forest Dwarves have sayings that sightings of these circles would bring good fortune.

For those unaware of how Fairy Rings work, they can be seen as a form of evil. "Beware the dreaded Fairy Rings! The Singing Elves have lain seeds of demon spawn upon our kingdom's lawn" is a commonly heard mantra of Human housewives, which serves to guide their children away from such magic.

Effects

Upon entering the circle, the person immediately feels the world around them, in a way an attuned Druid would. However, try as they might they are unable to actually communicate with it, or it them. History would show many men going mad, sitting for days within the circles, reveling in the feeling. It is like gaining a sixth sense, or the earth becoming an extension of your body, feeling every touch and heartbeat touching you. Still, others would study this, learn from it, and document what they felt. Even still, some would use the hit as a sort of "high", dancing around these rings in the moonlight with others and relishing the feeling.

Druids who dwell within the circle find their connection strengthened somewhat. They need not meditate as long when performing tasks if they are low tier, and if they are higher tier their spells or abilities are a bit stronger.
