Travelers entering a forest might catch a glimpse of a slender form flitting through the trees. Warm laughter hangs on the air, marking where the elusive Dryad was just a moment before. Dryads are fey spirits that reside in the trees. They act as guardians of the woodlands. Shy and reclusive, they tend to keep hidden unless attracted by the beauty or charms of a stranger into leaving their forest home. Dryads work with other sylvan creatures to defend the natural world. <\/p>
Ability Score Improvement: Your Wisdom and Intelligence scores increase by 1. <\/p>
Age: Dryad souls are magically bound to a single tree. So long as the tree lives, so does the Dryad. Some have been known to live millennia, while others barely survive a decade. <\/p>
Alignment: Dryads have no social structure nor do they develop philosophy on good or evil. They see only life, not morals. In their view, the preservation of all forms of life supersedes any relationships, social constraints or principles. <\/p>
Languages: Elvish, Sylvan, Common. <\/p>
Size: Though they may inhabit trees that are hundreds of feet tall, the Dryad themselves are only 4 to 6 ft in height. Your size is Medium. <\/p>
Speed: Your base walking speed is 30ft. <\/p>
Woodland Weaponry: Once per day, you may use an action to cast the entangle spell without exhausting a prepared spell slot. You must take a long rest to refresh this ability. <\/p>

These nomadic “horse men” believe themselves to be descended from a romantic dalliance between a male demigod and a cloud maiden. Their union resulted in the birth of a race that continually seeks the freedom of the open sky with hooves thundering like a powerful storm across the wide prairies of the Material Plane. Reclusive wanderers and omen-readers of the wild, centaurs avoid conflict but fight fiercely when pressed. They roam the vast wilderness, keeping far from borders, laws, and the company of other creatures. Occasionally, however, a centaur who is done a kindness by a stranger of another race feels obliged to repay the debt by accompanying the creature and its companions on their wanderings. <\/p>
Ability Score Improvement: Your Constitution score increases by 2 and your Wisdom score increases by 1. <\/p>
Age: Although Centaurs are born with the ability to walk and speak, the average lifespan for these creatures is comparable to that of humans, with 80 to 90 years being considered the limits of their longevity. Alignment: Centaurs love freedom and are distrustful of order or social constraints. They are protective of the natural world. Centaur society values the study of fields such as herbalism that give the individual greater insight into the innate powers of the wilderness. They abhor artificial constructs and machinery as abominations against their goddess, Mielikki. <\/p>
Languages: Sylvan, Common. <\/p>
Size: Although they are taller than humans, Centaurs breed out smaller than horses. Your size is Medium. <\/p>
Speed: Your base walking speed is 45 ft. Though fast on straightaways, plains, roads, and hilly slopes, you have disadvantage on all checks related to climbing sheer surfaces.<\/p>
Charge: If you move at least 30 ft directly toward an enemy and then attack with a melee weapon on the same turn, the target creature takes an extra 1d6 piercing, slashing, or bludgeoning damage. <\/p>
At one with the Land: You are proficient in the skill of your choice between Nature and Animal Handling. You also have proficiency with the Herbalism Kit. <\/p>","reference":"Usergen"},{"id":1142,"name":"Woodwose","full_text":"
Woodwose (Satyr and Faun)<\/p>
Raucous fey of the wild forests, Woodwoses are driven by curiosity and hedonism in equal measure. The males are colloquially referred to as Satyrs and the females of the race are known as Fauns. Satyrs resemble stout human males with the furry lower bodies of goats while Fauns have the appearance of short human females with the strong and graceful lower limbs of a deer. The males sport small horns from their forehead and usually have unkempt beards. Female Woodwoses lack horns, but their ears are more cervine in appearance, protruding delicately from their long, finely-brushed hair.<\/p>
Ability Score Improvement: Your Charisma and Dexterity scores both increase by 1.<\/p>
Age: The lifespan of Woodwoses is comparable to that of humans, with 80 to 90 years being considered the limits of their longevity.<\/p>
Alignment: Woodwoses allow no festivity to pass them by. They partake in any holiday they’ve heard of. They seek to live life to the fullest and, when not with their own race, are most at home with humans and gnomes. More often than not, inebriated on drink and pleasure, Woodwoses give little thought to the consequences of the self-indulgent behavior they incite in others. Their companions frequently find themselves at a loss to explain their disordered condition to parents, friends, spouses and employers.<\/p>
Languages: Sylvan, Common.<\/p>
Size: Woodwoses range from 3 to 5 ft in height, weighing up to 80 lbs. Your size is Small.<\/p>
Speed: Your base walking speed is 35 ft.
Life of the Party: You have proficiency in the skills of Persuasion and Performance, as well as proficiency with one musical instrument of your choice.<\/p>
Charming Melody: Once per day as your action, you can choose to play your instrument. Any creature within 50 ft of you that can hear your music must succeed on a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw. Those that fail are charmed by you for 1 minute. If you or any of your companions harm the creature while it is charmed, the effect ends immediately. You must complete a long rest to refresh this ability.<\/p>","reference":"Usergen"}],[],[],[],[],[]]
