Homebrew Bonsai Dryad Species Details
Druids deep in zen mindfulness often take up the hobby of growing bonsai trees. Dryads that connect their souls to these trees are capable of distant travel as their bonsai is small and portable. These fey are naturally more outgoing and usually treat their druid caretaker as a close family member.
