Homebrew Ent Species Details
Ents are ancient creatures that take on the forms of trees as they hibernate. Their skin is made of a thick wood, but ancient magic courses through their veins. Because of this magic, many dark wizards and sorcerers seek to extract all of the magic from whatever Ents they can find.
Ent Traits

Your constitution score is increased by 2.
Living Shrubbery
When an Ent rests they do not entirely fall asleep. Since falling asleep willingly could mean that they don't wake up for several hundred years they try their best to never truly fall asleep, but they still get the benefit of long rests and short rests after being inactive and motionless for 4 hours. You are also the creature type of plant instead of a humanoid.
Born Of The Woods
Ents are very knowledgeable about the forest and know how to survive in it. As a guide Ents are great, but as companions not so much. Their ancient lives and almost extinct race make them feel very isolated and alone. They can be hostile even toward friends and can be temperamental.
Because of this knowledge they hold they gain proficiency in the nature and arcana skills.
A Living Tree
Ents are rather large, towering between 6 and 15 feet tall it is hard for them to go unnoticed. Even more so, Ents are very different from one another. Some ents look more humanoid while others can look almost animalistic. With branches growing out of them at weird angles and leaves littering their form most Ents are accepted with distaste if they are accepted at all.
