Surprisingly, Gnolls can channel their excitement into feats of motivation and aspiration, achieving greatness in devotion to their causes. Great war leaders, ravengers and adventurers of history have a smattering of Gnoll names written among them by others, while Gnolls themselves care little for any actual anscestry or lineage they leave behind.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of 1). You regain all uses of this feature again when you finish a short or long rest.
Instinctual Hypnotics. You have an innate urge that strongly draws you to something you desire. You may choose a certain desirable object that your character specifically fantasises about or is drawn to the most, or leave it for the DM to decide. Examples of such things could be nectar, flowers, honey, bright lights or a certain shiny object. While the object is within line of sight, you must make a Wisdom Saving Throw, the DC of which can be determined by the DM, to resist the temptations of the chosen object. On a fail, you become obsessed or mesmerised by the chosen object. You are infatuated by it and uncontrollably pursue or stare at it for the next minute. This effect ends early if you sufficiently obtain the object or it is no longer in your line of sight.

​

ONODRIM
Plant life in Entrellia can sometimes be just that, intelligent life found in plants, capable of much more than just sunlight absorption and seed spurting. These creatures, while slow moving, may have been some of the first active life across the world due to them not needing a heart or blood from Aaya. Over the Creation Periods, Onodrim numbers dwindle, becoming a very rare sight to behold, and yet, they remain the most remarkable and recognisable spectacles that roam the outskirts of civilisation. They are humble and often peaceful creatures, favouring a nature-filled and a restful life away from conflict and others.
​
ONODRIM TRAITS
As ancient and native forest dwellers, Onodrim have developed long lasting natural skills that relate to their organic lifestyle.
​
Ability Score Increase. Your Constitution and Wisdom scores increase by 1.
Age. Related to the forests around them, Onodrim have long lifespans and have a funny relation with age. They are said to reach adulthood at around 50, and the oldest of them can live for thousands of years, though some believe they regrow after a handful of centuries to live again or to find a new host.
Alignment. As simple people who follow the rhythm of nature, Onodrim are typically neutral and can lean to the good side of alignments.
Size. Onodrim size varies drastically depending on their subrace, described later in the Elder Lineage feature. Ent derived Onodrim are spindly, standing between 8 and 10 feet tall and weigh between 300 and 450 pounds. But despite their height, they are still rather slender. While Fungusfolk are more squat and girthier, with a varying height between 4 to 7 feet tall. Dryads take the most humanoid form, having similar weight and size to a human. Your size is Medium regardless.
Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Languages. You speak, read, and write Common and Sylvan.
At One. You gain proficiency in the Nature skill. You also have the ability to communicate in a limited manner with plants. You can understand and sense their emotions, if they're feeling any, such as stressed, relieved, aggressive or relaxed. You also have advantage on any Charisma checks made towards plants or plant based creatures.
​
Photosynthesis. You are considered a Plant type creature. Furthermore, you do not need to eat or sleep, and therefore can remain alert during rests. Instead, you must ensure you have spent at least 4 hours basking in sunlight each day. Failing to do so results in the same level of exhaustion as missing a day of sleep would cause. In addition, you cannot gain benefits from a long rest unless you have successfully spent at least 4 hours in sunlight within a 24 hour period.
​
Natural Creation. You know the Druidcraft cantrip and can cast it at will.
​
Nature's Blood. You have advantage on saving throws against poison, and you have resistance against poison damage.

​
Dryad
The known protectors, Dryads are Fey-like spirits, often summoned and spawned with the purpose of guarding sacred, ancient nature in the forms of circles, forest clearings, woodland patches or to even lead groups of wildlife. Dryads far from their designated forests are often considered lost, or have outlived what they were created to protect. Many wandering Dryads often carry grave trauma or misfortune, having failed to guard their homes.

Dryad Magic. You learn the Friends cantrip. Once you reach 3rd level, you can cast the Barkskin spell once. Once you reach 5th level, you can cast the Healing Spirit spell once.

Fey Ancestry. You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can’t put you to sleep.
​
Ent
Ent Onodrim are awoken trees that have yet to fully find their rooting. Due to their travelling nature, Ent Onodrim are often smaller and more nimble than the more common and stationary treefolk. Their freedom and mobility hwoever allows them to be more suitable for civilised societies and grant them more flexibility when it comes to adapting to life outside of an enclosed forest, while still maintaining their ancestor's features. Ents can range from many tree species, depending on where they grew. Some with peely bark like a birch, others with tough oak. Some may have droopy leaves like a willow tree, or pine needles if they hail from colder climates.
​
Ability Score Increase. Your Strength score increase by 1.
Powerful Build. You count as one size larger when determining your carrying capacity and the weight you can push, drag, or lift.
Living Greenery. Due to your natural bark and size, you are ill-suited to wearing armour and gain no benefits to your Armour Class when wearing it. Your wooden bark provides ample protection however; it gives you a base AC of 17. Your Dexterity modifier does not affect this number, but if you are using a shield, you can apply the shield's bonus as normal.
Rooted Footing. As a reaction, whenever you are forced to make a saving throw against being moved, pushed, dragged or lifted, as long as there is a floor beneath you that your feet are touching, you can gain advantage on the roll.
​
Fungusfolk
A strange Onodrim being, Fungusfolk are in fact tiny microbes that inhabit an organic host, later growing, feeding and functioning like an intelligent fungi-humanoid creature. They often sprout a main mushroom-like head, equipped with eyes and a mouth and are even able to impersonate creatures similar to the likes of Myconids, with perceivable emotions, movement and more sentient-like behaviours. Many Fungusfolk dwell underground in moist caverns and dimly lit chasms, but can surface in bogs, marshes and densely filled forests.
​
Ability Score Increase. Your Constitution score increases by 1.
Spore Magic. You learn the Infestation cantrip. Once you reach 3rd level, you can cast the Blindness/Deafness spell once. Once you reach 5th level, you can cast the Ray of Sickness spell once. You must finish a long rest to cast these spells again with this trait. Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for these spells.
Fungal Fever. If a creature reduces you to 0 hit points while within 5 feet of you, the creature takes poison damage equal to your level. Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.
PLANELING
Those who think of other planes at all consider them remote, distant realms, but planar influence can be felt throughout the world. It sometimes manifests in beings who carry the power of the planes in their blood. Planelings are one such people, made of pure elemental creation or in rare cases, as the offspring of genies.

RATFOLK
Hailing from the north-ewstern shores of the Great Golden Waters, in a swampy bog land known as The Swallows, the Ratfolk are an exotic race, and one whose secret clans are found close to homes of many other races, if ever found at all. They are opportunists by nature, though their adaptability allows them to change their ways, should their survival be at risk. While uncommon, it is possible to see the rat people who have abandoned their homes in favour of joining a better society, often becoming messengers, traders or spies. But many stick to what they know, scurrying, thieving and gang rivalry. Ratfolk are often unpleasant to deal with, lacking manners and the ability to be selfless.
​
RATFOLK TRAITS
Ratfolk shares the following traits with most other rodent creatures.
​
Ability Score Increase. Your Dexterity score increases by 2.
Age. Ratfolk reach adulthood at the age of 8. Most tend to live up to no more than 40 years due to lack of hygiene and underdevelopment of society, but those who integrate into other cultures can live up to 80 years.
Alignment. Ratfolk individuals are driven by a desire to acquire interesting items and a compulsion to accumulate wealth. Small and greedy, their society is built strongly on bullying those that they deem weaker than themselves, and acting servile when defeated. Most Ratfolk are neutral evil, though those that were raised in different ways can have different alignments.
Size. A Ratfolk is roughly of the same size as a Halfling. Your size is Small.
Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Languages. You can speak, read, and write Common and Undercommon.

Craven. You have disadvantage on saving throws against being frightened.

SUBRAT
Several subraces of Ratfolk exist. Choose one of the following subraces.
​
Packling
Packlings are a variety of Ratfolk that are used to living together in large groups, excelling in working together towards a common goal. They are often the most accepted Ratfolk in society, willing to work together more oftenly than others of their kind.
​
Ability Score Increase. Your Charisma score increases by 1.

Quick Feet. Your walking speed is increased by 5.
​
Plaguebringer
While most Ratfolk recognise illness as a threat to their clans, and isolate sick individuals from the rest, sometimes a plague overcoming the pack can have more sinister consequences: a diseased Ratfolk might start hearing the whispers of Foul. If enough Ratfolk fall under the influence of the Numen of Disgust, the clan might end up venerating disease rather than avoiding it.
​

Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for these spells.
Carrion Eater. You have advantage on saving throws against poison and disease, and resistance to poison damage.
STUNTED TROLL
Trolls are creatures unkindly rejected and feared by most societies. Horrid looking, boil covered and crooked-nosed monsters with personalities that often match. They are commonly greedy and self-serving with little morals to think on, however, few Trolls sometimes do break the norms of their kin; adapting to civilisation where possible, whether that be through mercenary work, becoming hunters on the outskirts of small towns, or simply paid to lurk under bridges as toll collectors. The rare majority that find themselves following this path are rejects from their own race, deemed to be too nice, too small or too submissive to exterior sources. This banishment and exile stunts a Troll's true growth and wild powers in exchange for more welcoming civilisations and settlements.
