Drishel - Keeper of the Spirits of the Land

As the oldest and most ancient spirit on Dartmoor, Drishel is guardian of all the Genius Locus, the Keepers.

A Keeper is the Genius Loci of a specific ancient place, and in this instance, locations on Dartmoor in Devonshire. It is the spirit of the land and is a sentinel that protects the sacred nature of the site. One can think of them as essentially caretakers that still live among us, but are in spirit form. They are truly enchanted nature spirits like faeries, elves, and gnomes, and are magical in every sense of the word.
