Move in some forest gnomes (if there isn't a clan already in place.or brownies or halflings or whatever small foresty folk you want to use/are suitable for your location/game setting). It is handy for defending a small area in the south wood, but does require some attention to keep pruned/not let it overrun the forest/grow beyond the grotto. The sides of grotto are coated in the lovely bright sun-colored flowers of a large yellow musk creeper. The Golden Grotto: A small grotto at the southern edges of the wood lures intruders to it with its sweet aromas.
He is happy to chat if you happen to be around when he visits and has agreed to keep an eye out for strange or evil unnatural goings on in the abutting highlands that might require your attention. Derithor, the pegasus stallion of the winged herd that pastures in the mountain fields above your wood, likes to water himself and his herd at the highest altitude/largest/most secluded pond. The "Pool of Clouds": so named for its mirror-like clarity of the sky and clouds that float over head.
D AND D 5E CHARACTER BUILDER DRYAID SERIES
A series of Wall of Thorns spells should be suitable to make the terrain surrounding it prohibitive to outsiders without interfering with the sprites' coming and going. The sprite-filled "king's tree" needs special attention. Maybe, depending on the size, no more than 3. Keep an eye on various sections of the forest. I would certainly have at least 1 treant in the area to help tend to the trees and plants.
D AND D 5E CHARACTER BUILDER DRYAID FULL
Go full on 80's cartoon D&D and make behind the falls a large community of fairy dragons' lair. Or where the nixies or some other fey resident hide treasure or make a home. If you wanted to go super Tolkien, you could make it a treant's home.
Between them they should be able to keep an eye/warn if anything goes wrong with any of the waterways in the forest.īehind the falls might make a nice abode for your druid. I would house a nice family of giant otters and their playmates/friends, the nixies, in the largest/deepest pond. Maybe there's a nice waterfall somewhere along the way.one of the pools is where the falls come in. Are they connected? I'm imagining a healthy system of streams and creeks crisscrossing the territory so that water from one pond (at the highest elevation in the wood) that sheds into two others at lower elevation. by stone shaping the monoliths to form a solid wall around the dryad tree). Maybe, around the edges of the Yew clearing, to lend/mark it as a particularly special place (and provide defense if necessary. It should have a purpose if it is there at all. Tracking/following astrologic phenomena (stones to mark the beginning/end of summer and winter, etc.). Serving as ritual space when other druids visit for the holidays. A circle of standing stones might be nice if it has a purpose. Second, how much acreage/mileage are we talking? How large is the territory which you now (are supposed to) keep? The only "buildings" that should be there are, possibly, a simple cottage built into an ancient hollowed tree or a halfling-type mound home. First, one does not "build" a Druid's Grove.
