Homebrew Seedling Species Details

Seedlings are the result of the union between a forest nymph or dryad and a particularly adventurous halfling. Clever and colorful, but with a deep connection to nature, they are sometimes referred tto by other races as "flower children" and carry with them an infectious optimism and a thirst for life unmatched by most other races. Seedlings don't like sitting in one place for very long - they tend to draw odd looks for their eccentric ways, and take great pride in pollinating the world they explore with colors and joy from far off places. 

There is very little that a seedling takes seriously in the way that other races do, but this cheerful nature is born not out of any lack of maturity. Seedlings are all too aware of the passing season's of life and death, and always seek to enjoy the spring and summer wherever they might find it, be that in the simplest joys of a warm ray of sun, or the thrilling excitement of a magical journey.
