PATHFINDERS - The Leshy Investigator

In Pathfinder First Edition, Leshy were the "plant familiars" of nature-bound spellcasters, not being much larger than adult halflings, created when a spirit unable to manipulate the physical world is summoned by a master of primal magic, usually for a body composed of plant or fungal materials, cultivated from specific and complicated rituals. In Second Edition, these creatures keep much of their previous aspects intact, being able to be companions and familiars of primal spellcasters, but also becoming an ancestry of their own, endowed with powerful spirits capable of coming on their own terms to the material plane, being another of the unique possibilities for players within the world of Golarion.

For this little lady I chose to be inspired by an Araucaria pine, more specifically by the so-called Paraná Pine, which is the darling symbol of my home state. I wasn't sure if this Leshy would be female until I drew the pinecones on the sides of her head, as they are only present on female trees, while males have ironically phallic structures called aments. Also because the genus Araucaria is very old - with fossils dating from the Jurassic period -, I thought it was very fair to make this lady an older Leshy Investigator, especially considering that members of this ancestry tend to live for a long time, being full of experience in her methodology of Alchemical Sciences, making use of chemistry to solve mysteries.

Interesting Fact: I drew this character over a year ago, thinking of her as a Leaf Leshy, which are more like trees and bushes. But, coincidentally or not, Pathfinder Second Edition has, since February 2022, the Pine Leshy, who fits this character even better. Ironic to say the least.

My mom saw a weird looking tree and asked me to draw my interpretation of it.

This is the tree.....

I went through five or six different versions of this peice and I loathed every second of it :)

Below is one of the earlier iterations

It was not a fun time for either of us...
