Notes The Forest's Guardian is a large, animal-like plant construct magically animated by the Great Tree of a given Aldryami Forest for purposes of self-defence in times of danger, typically to confront invaders. The Forest's Guardian will remain in the vicinity of the Great Tree to make sure it is unharmed. Sometimes, the Great Tree of an Aldryami Forest becomes mad. In this case, the Forest's Guardian may be created for nefarious, rather than defensive, purposes, and it may hunt down any sentient species it encounters, including elves, irrespective of their actual behaviour towards the Great Tree. Despite its size, the Forest's Guardian moves at incredible speed through the forest. Should the Guardian have ensnared one or more victims, then any damage to the Guardian may actually affect the ensnared victim. For 1 victim, roll 1D20: on a roll of 1-2, the victim is hit; 3-20, the Guardian is hit. For 2 victims, roll 1D20: on a roll of 1-2, the 1st victim is hit; on a roll of 3-4, the 2nd victim is hit; 5-20, the Guardian is hit. And so on... Timinits & Trolls: Forest's Guardian
