The Lore of Druid Isaac of the Court

Origins

“Beware of unearned wisdom...” Time and time again the elder wizards had repeated these words to Isaac. He had never really understood them until one day when he was venturing across The Sands. His stomach would not stop reminding him that he had not eaten in days. The barren sands really had nothing to offer for food, except cacti, and surely, he was not desperate enough to prune the spines of a cactus just yet. It wasn’t until a few hours later that he stumbled upon an unfamiliar spineless cactus. Hungry and without much to lose in the harsh climate of the sands, Isaac decided to gorge himself; eating until his belly poked through his cloak. Content, he rested amongst the sand as night began to fall, providing him some relief from the unrelenting rays of the sun. Then the colors came, vibrant and psychedelic, covering his field of view. His mind expanded to new lengths; he began to understand the true nature of the universe, and how it came to be. He saw the Rune of Venus and its representation of the harmony of nature and consciousness. As the illusion of time vanished, Isaac realized he had also gained a companion, a bat; one that would forever be by his side. Isaac was shown the most ancient magic, magic likely unknown to any wizard living today. Magic as old as the stars... Or maybe older. He saw great battles, great victories, and great sorrows. Wisdom and power surged through him as the universe revealed itself to him. All that ever was, and ever will be, he saw.

The following day, Isaac awoke, a more powerful wizard than any he’d ever met. He knew exactly what he had eaten. It was Peyote. Isaac realized instantaneously; some things are more powerful than staffs or wands.

Ever since he saw,_ _Isaac has never been the same. Sometimes in his control and sometimes out of his control, the deep, old magic of the universe has been in his life; for better or worse. Perhaps it is a piece of the Psychic Leap warping his mind. “Beware of unearned wisdom,” the words echoed in the depths of his mind...
