The Cener Druids are a race of herbalists who twice attempted to develop a plague to wipe out most of Magnamund and clear the way for the conquest of Naar.
The sect originated in the Cener Mountains, a range of mountains near the town of Amory in the kingdom of Salony. Later, most of them moved South and established their own kingdom of Ruel.
