Meliai:
+2 Dex, +2 Con, -4 Int, +2 Wis, +4 Cha
Also known as the "First Nymphs," Meliai were born from the ash trees before any of the other nymph types. Not very bright, but still loving and loyal, Meliai normally live carefree lives, although they are favoured for courtships by sexist offworlders who don't want their partner to be an intellectual contender but love a pretty face. Meliai are basically split between two main personality types based on Intelligence, wherein the first sort perpetually have the minds of young girls in the body of voluptuous mature women, and others are mature but just not brilliant. Meliai who take levels in Nymph gain the Treestride ability, like many Dryads. They receive symbiosis from contact with ash trees, and so they are often found playing near such trees. Their hair is often green or brown, although the vibrant red of the mountain ash's berries or the whites and pinks of its blossoms are not unknown. Eyes tend to be green, brown, or pink.
