OP here. I actually find Christian lore fascinating after finding out that there is an actual prototypical druid in the Bible canon.
> Elisha was the successor to Elijah the Tishbite, a prophet most well-known for his explosive and fiery miracles. Unlike his predecessor, the prophet Elisha seemed to specialize less in firestorms, preferring gentler acts of healing and restoration such as the cleansing of poisons and the purification of waters. Yet when roused, he too could pray forth the most dire punishments. Nowadays, his only legacy remembered among younger thaumaturges is this particular curse.
> As the records state, the prophet Elisha was on his way to Bethel when a group of 42 youths jeered at him, shouting "Go up, baldhead! Go up, baldhead!". In response to this egregious insult, Elisha cursed them in the name of the Lord. Immediately afterward, two female bears came out of the nearby woods and mauled all 42 of the youths.
> This famed prophet summoned two entire ursines just to viciously maul 42 youths for mocking his baldness. The miracle is considered one of the most ridiculous tales ever transcribed.
