A Botanical is a plant creature that closely resembles humans in size and form. Its “skin” is actually soft green moss. Stems, leaves, and even flowers grow and adorn its body. As it grows, some botanicals take on a male form, and others female. Some solitary botanicals take on a less civilized form, more closely resembling shambling swamp creatures. Instead of eating, botanicals must spend time every day in the sun and absorb water frequently.

Botanicals are a peaceful and even-tempered folk who live in secluded natural areas. They see the preservation of nature and life as the highest duty. However, they turn into fierce warriors when confronting those who would despoil the land or harm the innocent. In a natural environment, they blend in with plant life, and surprise opponents on a roll of 1-5 on 1d6.
