Homebrew Entfruit Species Details
The southern region of Krikia is characterized by massive, ancient forests. In the
depths of the oldest ones, the entfruit are born.
TREANT BORN
Entfruit, also known as Tombaums, are born of Treants so ancient that they have
ceased movement in all but the most dire of situations. Entfruit are born to
perform the treant's regular duties of protecting forests and soon to be treants.
They serve a specific purpose in the treant's life cycle as well; when an Entfruit
dies, it turns into a tree sapling. This tree is destined to Awaken into a Treant.
SOLITARY WANDERERS
Entfruit tend to live and exist on the fringes of other societies; they have
difficulty connecting and relating to other races. In particular, they find gender
and prejudice based solely on race or subrace strange and confusing.
ENTFRUIT NAMES
Though they have names among each other, these names cannot be articulated
to non-plant creatures, so they often recieve names from the races whose
settlements they first encounter (often Pixish or Elves), or recieve simple
nicknames such as Twiggy. They do not weigh gender when choosing names. If they
recieved names from members of a society they've joined, those people may offer
names based on the Entfruit's percieved gender.

Upon death, an Entfruit takes the form of a sapling which will become a

can be returned to their original form using ressurection or a similar spell. Lost
body parts are not returned unless specifically returned by the spell. An Entfruit
