I like the concept, but it sounds as if the execution is a little underwhelming. Is there any justification for why a druid would focus on one season to the exclusion of all the others? What does a summer druid do all winter?
Also, is there any allowance for different arrangements of seasons for different geographical regions? Say, a monsoon druid?

Is the race on its own underpowered, or are you classifying it as dreadful based on their backstory?
