Dryad

Dryads are a group of plant-based humanoid species, first sprouting in the simpler Plains and Forest biomes, but have since then proliferated out all across the world. Since spreading out across the world, there have been evolutionary divides where different species have adapted to their environments, resulting in different cultures and diverging biologies.

Creation
Dryads are historically said to first be born from the remains of a burnt forest. While burning, the trees called out to the nature gods and goddesses, and out of determination and spite, conjured enough magical energy to be reborn as more humanoid creatures. These proto-Dyrads, now known as the Dytrae, would be the ancestors of what are now the modern Dryads.
