Plant Creature

Like Beasts, Plant Creatures resemble plants but are hybrids of beast and plant, or exaggerated and fantastical evolutions of flora. Plant Creatures are born naturally in the wild and can have magical powers. Just like Beasts, most Plant Creatures are unintelligent and lack any society or language.

Description

Treants are sentient trees that emerge in forests saturated with thick ambient magic. They typically form naturally—and often quite randomly—when a wild tree seed absorbs enough of this magic, though Treants can also be deliberately created, as seen with the Treants of Wandron Woods.

According to bestiary records kept by scholars in Quivtol and Kurestal, only three Treant variants have ever been documented across the Spine: those found in the Everwood Forest, the Fractured Forest, and the Wandron Woods.

Regardless of origin or region, Treants are known by different names as they grow and mature: Logants in infancy, Stumpants in their juvenile years, and Treants only upon reaching adulthood.

Violetfair Treants

Gentle guardians of the Everwood Forest, Violetfair Treants emerge from seeds dropped by the Purplebark trees growing near the giant Everwood Tree—arguably one of Prism’s greatest magical wonders, known far and wide as the Tree of Life. Created by Violetfair’s founder, Relian, the Everwood Tree towers over the logging town, its magic saturating the surrounding soil and gradually seeping into the Purplebark seeds.

Though naturally peaceful, Violetfair Treants enter a frenzied state when they sense a threat to the Everwood Forest. In this state, they attack indiscriminately, unable to distinguish friend from foe, making them dangerous even to longtime Violetfair residents.

One of the most severe recorded incidents occurred in 1836 AA, when a set of abandoned Summoning Cards began releasing wisps of dark magic. The spreading miasma caused the Treants to grow increasingly agitated and aggressive, for they perceived the dark magic as a threat to the forest. Matters grew worse when a Summoner named Raziel claimed the Cards as their new master, but a valiant Postknight came to the town’s rescue and drove her away, after which the Treants gradually returned to their normal, calm state.
