Basic Information

Anatomy

Dryadrim are shape shifters. They typically appear as extremely robust or beautiful trees of the forest that they are found in; however, they can appear as young women, usually very beautiful, but with features that derive from their nature as protectors of trees and forests: green hair or living flowers in their hair, rough, bark-like skin, and so on.

Ecology and Habitats

Dryadrim are usually found within the deep forests of Derkomai. The appearance of the dryadrim matches the species of trees of the forest.

Additional Information

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

Dryadrim are capable of sensing the emotions of the trees and plants of their forest. They know when trees of their forests are being hurt. They are also capable of sensing and manipulating the emotions of the animals of their forests, and to a limited extent, directing their actions.
