| − | ==Appearance==
| |
| − | Dryads look like green-skinned elves with tree-like features, including leafy hair that may change color with the seasons. They can grow bark on their skin when threatened.

| − | ==Abilities==
| |
| − | Dryads are immortal creatures of the forest, living mostly solitary lives (rather than forming communities) among the oldest trees. Living like plants, they harm no living creature, neither flora nor fauna. They can speak to all the spirits of nature, and some say transform into trees. Other stories claim they can also transform into animals, but these stories are untrue.
| |
| − | ==Culture==
| |
| − | By and large, dryads are shrouded in mystery. Many say they are probably the ancestors of the other elves, the first creations of the [[Vanir]], although the life elves worship no particular god or goddess, instead befriending those who love nature. [[Artemis]] in particular, an [[Olympians|Olympian]] goddess, is known for the train of nymphs and dryads who wait on her.
