[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 6695530, member: 2209"] [b]Into the Green[/b] [URL="http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/28059/Into-the-Green-A-Guide-for-Forests-Jungles-Woods-and-Plains?affiliate_id=17596"]Into the Green[/URL] 3.0 [b]Arborgeist:[/b] When a treant meets a gruesome end at the hands of fire and great evil, the pain and horror of this fate sometimes proves too intense for the benign spirit to find rest even in death. [b]Autmunal Mourner:[/b] As the lingering spirits of the neglected dead, autumnal mourners appear during the gray mists of autumn. Deprived of a proper funeral, burial, or even commemoration, they now mourn the summer’s annual passing and the subsequent death of the trees’ falling leaves. Autumnal mourners arise from the bodies of the unburied and forgotten dead. [b]Bracken Corpse:[/b] Bracken corpses are the reanimated remains of murder victims hidden or dumped in the wilderness by their killer. Whether their creation results from arcane power or the whim of a vengeful deity, bracken corpses are fearsome shambling abominations. On very rare occasions, the victims of a mass murderer arise as bracken corpses all searching for the same killer. [b]Lostling:[/b] Lostlings are the pitiful souls of creatures or lost individuals who died in the wilderness from starvation or madness. Creatures dying from starvation or thirst after being turned catatonic from a lostling's wisdom drain transform into lostlings within 1d3 days. A solitary lostling is usually the sole survivor ofsome catastrophe, while larger gatherings of these creatures consist of entire parties that lost their way in the woods or a lostling’s transformed victims. [b]Uragh Dhu:[/b] Some scholars insist these creatures are the remains of dead treants reanimated by a dark and forbidden evil ritual. [b]Blightsower:[/b] During trying times when drought plagues the land and the hot, oppressive sun bakes the dry earth into infertile clay, long forgotten legends recall the sudden appearance of a mysterious stranger swathed in a dark, hooded cloak. Amidst the inescapable blight surrounding him, the enigmatic, otherworldly charlatan peddles his far-fetched promise of seven years of prosperity and bountiful harvests throughout the desperate farming communities. Most scoff at the outlandish boast, but some downtrodden farmers eagerly and rashly seize the crumb of hope offered by the shameless huckster. The fast-talking, charismatic swindler easily convinces them to sign his voluminous contract to receive their reward. Without hesitation and forethought, most succumb to temptation and agree to his terms. Within hours of reaching their agreement, the drought lifts, and the soil once again yields plentiful crops. For seven years afterwards, the cycle of prosperity continues, as the formerly destitute farmer now reaps abundant wealth and riches. Finally, seven years later to the day, the farmer’s soul suddenly departs from this world, fulfilling the terms of the contract signed with the malevolent confidence man. While the farmer’s spirit suffers endless torment in the realm of the dark forces, his body rises from death and assumes its new undead existence as a blightsower. [/QUOTE]
