Dryad Traits

Your dryad character has the following racial traits.

Ability Score Increase

Your Charisma score increases by 2, and your Wisdom score increases by 1. 

Age

Dryads mature at a similar rate to humans, but can live much longer, with the oldest of their kind reaching up to 1,000 years in age. A dryad's life cycle ends with the creature putting down roots and growing into a great tree. 

Size

Dryads range in height from 5 to 7 feet, and can have a variety of physical build types. Your size is medium.

Speed

Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

Darkvision

Accustomed to twilit forests and the night sky, you have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

Speech of Beast and Leaf

You have the ability to communicate in a limited manner with beasts and plants. They can understand the meaning of your words, though you have no special ability to understand them in return. You have advantage on all Charisma checks you make to influence them.

Forest Walk

You can move through difficult terrain made of underbrush or forest growth without expending additional movement.

Woodland Essence

You know the druidcraft cantrip. When you reach 3rd level, you can cast the entangle spell as a 2nd-level spell once with this trait and regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. When you reach 5th level, you can cast the barkskin spell once with this trait and regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells.

Languages

You can speak, read, and write Common and Sylvan.
