@atrox-tempestas liked for a nymph starter!

Normally, Dapple and Stream kept to themselves, warily observing new arrivals in their forest before deciding what to do about them, but this man was clearly one with nature--even if it wasn't obvious visually, they could sense primal magic from a significant distance.

So, when Ulefar inevitably stumbled across the crystal-clear, placid pond in the middle of the woods, fed by a gentle waterfall, the pair of nymphs were lounging in the shallows, clearly not bothered by his appearance. Dapple was the first to give him a friendly wave.

"Hello, friend! You are free to rest here, if you wish!"

As a little test run, like this post for a nymph starter!

"Oh, looks like there's a new dinosaur game coming out. I look forward to seeing Ava play that."

She's just rolling around on her bed, squeeing.

Lost Wilds is back with a new incredible trailer of Paleo accurate horror.

(Also pretty lady, but that's just a little perk.)

Dappled Wood:

- Shy

- Polite

- Generally keeps to herself

- Very nice as long as the forest isn't threatened

- Has very potent plant magic, can cause plants to rapidly grow, conjure up new plants, and even cause plants to become actively hostile or develop nastier defenses

Soothing Stream:

- Bold

- Troublemaking prankster

- More prone to exploring

- Much quicker to be hostile if she doesn't like your vibe

- Powerful water magic, from manipulating preexisting water with ease to conjuring small amounts out of the air (and into your lungs if you piss her off)

[paleobird]

While they both have somewhat different personalities, both of them are, above all else, fey, and have the weird psychological quirks to go with that label--even if they're better at presenting as 'normal' to humans than most fey.

Dapple will happily go on and on about how much she loves nature, especially plants, but holds no distinction over different aspects of the natural world--she as equally enamored with the beauty of a majestic oak tree as she is with a log of rotting wood being consumed by detritovores. It's all beautiful in her eyes.

Stream, similarly, loves every aspect of water, from its inherent beauty and life-giving properties to its ability to destroy just about anything, given enough time. A flash flood annihilating an entire area is just as gorgeous and artistic as a babbling brook to her.

Some Extinct Aves by Mario Lanzas

[paleobird]

lookout! it's a cute little wildfire druid!

Gasp! A druid! Nymphs can smell a druid coming from a mile away.

Paci might be one of the few people who could walk through here and get tackle-hugged by two nature spirits at once. Lucky.

[paleobird]

Turnip senses someone else! Attempts to make the contact! Give the snuggles! Chitters curiously! Is also friend of Turnip? Likes friends! are friendly! Like Turnip!

Stream lifts her head and makes a face, though Dapple's puppy-dog eyes are sufficient to prevent the naiad from retreating, and she gives Turnip a pat on the head.

"Oh, fine..."

[paleobird]

but poros have no predators! they befriend everything! all fall before their snuggly might!

"That seems very unlikely. A fox would eat this little pumpkin in a heartbeat."

[paleobird]

dapple no! before long you'll have a hundred of those pumpkin critters swarming over your place!

"Oh, I doubt that will be a problem! The local predators will almost certainly keep their population in check!"

[paleobird]

Well, Turnip is tiny, and friend shaped! is also snuggly. and the plants like him! Gives the snuggles. Are snuggly baby poro snuggles. Happy baby poro. Chitters in a happy tone! Plant friend is clearly new friend. Has found new place to grow the patch!

Dapple clapped her hands together happily.

"Oh, excellent, I've always wanted pumpkins!"

Her naiad partner as settled for planting her face in the grass at the pond shore. Sigh.

[paleobird]

Is plucked! Is turnip! Is snuggly and soft and warm and filled with love! The plants also like him. Plants tend to love the plant poros. Are good floofs. Grow the patch!

turnip, however, is very curious and confused and also senses plants! Chitters curiously! Perhaps is friend of turnip?

The dryad tilts her head, finally stepping out of the tree entirely and crouching next to Turnip, observing him like he was a weird bug.

"Oh, it speaks! How strange. Yes, pumpkin, we are friends!"

"Dapple!"

"What?"

"You cannot just instantly befriend every vaguely plant-shaped creature you meet."

"I most certainly can!"
