Braiders are highly specialized casters of the Dreite; they braid sweetgrass and harvest plants in ways that help them grow. They weave pain and poisons into baskets; they purify taint, both physical and magical, drawing in toxins and magic into themselves and trapping them in baskets, braids, and idols. Braiders were a gift to the Dreite from Zatolen for the pain and suffering his people brought and to restore the damage caused by the rise of man on Dophia.  

Braiders purify the land, animals, people, and the self by braiding and burning sweetgrass, respectfully harvesting the land, carrying Traditions of Dreite and other native sapiens, and pulling toxic matter and magic from the land. They are sacrificial lambs to protect a land seized by the sword and poisoned by alchemists, mages, and the start of industry. They carry the weight of maintaining the land with dreams of one day reclaiming old homes. Braiders have no spells for combat but are effective healers and specialize in removing toxins, excesses of the body, and imbalances in the mind. 

Braiders are a community of equals, training new members together and passing on collective knowledge.
