You exist only to protect woodlands and the people who tend them. A wood woad’s face is void and expressionless, except for the motes of light that swim about in your eye sockets. Wood Woads like you speak little, and when not being called upon to take action, you root yourself in the earth and silently take sustenance from it. Like a tree, you need only sunlight, air, and nutrients from the earth to go on living. Because you are undying, you are able to outlive your original purpose. The site you guard might lose its power or significance over time, or those whom it was assigned to guard might themselves die. If you are freed from your specific duty, you might roam to find another place of natural beauty or fey influence to watch over.

Skill Proficiencies: If your character has the Wood Woad racial traits, you gain proficiency in Athletics, Stealth, and Perception, due to your short, lightweight build, your looks of nature for hiding amongst trees, and for finding whoever might want to harm nature itself.

Languages: If your character has the Wood Woad racial traits, you can speak, read, and write Sylvan.

Equipment: You have a wooden club that is magical in your hands, and a shield that is grown out of your left arm.
