Archdruid

For the in-game title, see Archdruid (title). For the canceled Warcraft III hero, see Arch Druid (Warcraft III).

Malfurion Stormrage, Archdruid of the Kaldorei.

Archdruid (also arch-druid or arch druid) is the highest rank a druid can hold, awarded only by the Cenarion Circle. There are only a few archdruids on Azeroth, most of which directly studied under Cenarius himself. An archdruid is an immensely wise and powerful druid whose influence on nature surpasses that of lower-ranking druids.^{[citation needed]}
