The Lightning Circle

The Lightning Circle

The Lightning Circle is the most unpredictable circle. Members of the Lightning are warriors and fight on the front line. They may be the most unpredictable of the Four Circles but they protect what is close to them. They are the only Circle with the most offensive spells in their arsenal, being the soldiers of the Druids. The can cast defensive spells too, in order to protect those working on the battlefield. Noted members of this Circle is Alex, the Soul Rider of the Lightning and Rhiannon the Wild Whisperer. 

Levene which means Flash of Lightning, was the original leader of the Lightning Circle. She was strong, determined and always ready to thrust herself into battle. Her courage was unmatched, and her skills with offensive magic had no rival. During the battle for Earth, Aideen put her in charge of the Druid armies to fend off Garnok. Levene always told her Circle to keep the Lightning Striking True, to encourage them and for her members to have faith in her. She was not only good at offensive magic, but she was great in hand to hand combat as well. Her favoured weapon was the sword, as it cut clean and was as deadly as it was beautiful. She always kept one with her, just in case her magic wasn't going to be enough. 

During the battle against Garnok and his Generals, Levene and the Lightning Circle were at the forefront of the fight. Her sister, then head of the Sun Circle, Lene, was on hand ready to imprison Garnok. Fighting the Generals wasn't an easy task, but it was a challenge welcomed by Levene. She loved to be tested, and this would strengthen her powers. The battle was fought, and losses were made either side, but Levene managed to pin down Garnok long enough so Lene could cast him into Pandoria. 

Like her sisters, Levene kept a Grimoire of her spells, battles and day to day life. This book would be passed down to each new Leader of the Lightning Circle. Alex is the Leader of the Lightning now, being the Soul Rider of her Circle, she has been entrusted with her ancestor's book. Besides from learning from the Druids of the Lightning she also learned from these teachings. The values this Circle prizes above all else are courage, determination, bravery, chivalry and nerve. Levene was a fearless warrior and those who are strong with Lightning share these traits. 

To be initiated into the Lightning, a prospective member must pass a endurance and physical test. They must be able to control their emotions, be strong and show no fear when faced with danger. The also must treat every day as if it was their last, carrying a strong heart and being strong for those who don't have the will to do so for themselves. As a member gets deeper into the teachings of the Lightning, they will learn powerful offensive and defensive spells like Soul Strike. The Lightning is the physical might of the Druids, protecting others when they feel weak and fighting for the fate of Earth.
