Forest Spirits

Forest Spirits encompass many different types of spirits that are attracted to natural forests and groves. These spirits rarely venture into those areas were lumbering or hunting are common, preferring instead those places where only quiet people visit. The came in many different shapes and sizes. Many of them are modeled on the creatures in the forest they inhabit, but they can appear as anything.

Forest spirits prefer to come out only after the sun has set and darkness covers the land. The night is the time when the barrier between the fae lands and mortal plane is the weakest. This makes it easier for them to cross over.

If a forest spirit stays too long in an area they can eventually become attached to that area. These spirits become protector and wardens of their area - growing as it grows and diminishing as it becomes civilized. When their forest diminishes many choose to move on, but some will defend their forest to their death.
