Archdruid

Source: Volo’s Guide to Monsters p. 210, Mythic Odysseys of Theros

Archdruids watch over the natural wonders of their domains. They seldom interact with civilized folk unless there is a great threat to the natural order. An archdruid typically has one or more pupils who are druids (see the Monster Manual for statistics), and the archdruid’s lair is usually guarded by loyal beasts and fey creatures.
