Suggestions?

 

[demiurge1138]

Those spells are all quite thematic... but all utility/defensive. Should spirits of spring have any sort of offensive punch?

 

[freyar]

I thought about that. Maybe not too directly offensive. How about things like warp wood and spike growth? You know, indirect attacks, like entangle. I could also see one or maybe two direct offensive spells like flame blade. What do you think?

 

[demiurge1138]

Warp wood, spike growth, entangle... all appeal. Perhaps we mention that it does switch out to summon nature's ally in their tactics?

 

[Shade]

Sounds good.

Updated.

Shall we work on alternate form/change shape?

The Gan-da-yah can take on various forms for safety and guidance, often visiting the longhouses of the Indians in the shape of birds. If a Gan-da-yah appears as a bat, a symbol of the union of light and darkness, it indicates some life-and-death battle close at hand; if one appears as an owl, watchful and wise, the mission is one of warning; if one appears as a robin, it carries good tidings. The most harmless insect or worm may be carrying an important message from the Ganda-yah, for “the trail is broad enough for all.”

Any animal of up to Tiny size?

 

[demiurge1138]

Sounds reasonable.

 

[freyar]

Agreed.

 

[Shade]

So...

Change Shape (Su): A gan-da-yah can assume the form of any Tiny or smaller animal.
