Racial traits[]
Hamadryad have the following racial traits.
- Female Only
- All hamadryads are female.
- Forest Walk
- You ignore difficult terrain that is part of a tree, underbrush, or some other forest growth.
- Fey Origin
- Your ancestors were native to the Feywild, so you are considered a fey creature for the purpose of effects that relate to creature origin.
- Oaken Vitality
- Your tree heritage grants you a +5 racial bonus to Endurance checks to resist the effects of starvation, thirst, or suffocation, and you can survive for twice the normal time period before you are required to make such checks. You do not require sleep, but you must meditate at least four hours each day to absorb light (even from as small a source as a candle), soak in water, or connect with the earth beneath your feet. This meditation grants you the benefits that other races receive from an extended rest. While meditating, you are fully aware of your surroundings and notice approaching enemies and other events as normal.
