Item
Blinking Bow
Weapon (longbow), very rare
This bracelet summons a spectral bow that fires
teleporting force arrows.

As a bonus action you can summon this bow into your

hands. It remains so long as you hold it with one hand.
This bow is a magic weapon granting a +1 bonus to
attack and damage rolls made with it and it deals force
damage instead of piercing. It does not require
ammunition and targets of this bow do not benefit
from cover.

As a bonus action you can conjure forth a volley of

arrows. Each creature in a 60 foot cone must succeed a
DC 15 Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 8d8
damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a
successful one. Once you use the ability it cannot be
used again until the next dawn.

concluding their conflict.
Summary:​ The adventurers encounter a group of a dozen
Thri-Kreen in the forest who stop them and force them to
come with them to their camp in an attempt to have the
players help them return home. Their drawings of portals
mean nothing to the players, but anyone who succeeds a
nature or arcana check reveals that the nearby elves have
a magical ward on their home. If the ward is removed
they can leave. The elves are reluctant to remove their
only protection to their city and it will be up to the
players to either slay all the thri-kreen or convince the
elves to let down their guard.

Introduction:​ While camping in the woods, the

characters are confronted by a group of a dozen
thri-kreen. Not wanting to kill them, they do their best to
express emotions of plea. A successful DC 10 Insight
check will gather this much from them. The thri-kreen
will try to lead the players to their camp which is only a
short walk away. The thri-kreen do not care if they are
willing or not.

The Thri-Kreen Camp: O ​ nce at their camp, there are over

thirty thri-kreen living in these woods. They look to be
having a hard time surviving. They are led to a wall with
symbols written on it. Anyone who can spell understands
the symbols are conjuration and mean to be a portal.
At this point the players may be confused on what to do,
ask them to each roll a check to determine what to do
next or what to interpret the thri-kreens pleas.
Anyone who rolls an intelligence, nature, arcana, or
survival check above 12 knows there is a magical ward
protecting the forest. If this is communicated to the
thri-kreen, they will point in the direction of the Elven
city.

The Wood Elf City:​ If the characters head to the city, they
will be met outside before entering by 5 archers with
their arrows ready. If the players tell them they are there
to solve the thri-kreen issue, the elves lower their
weapons and are led to their lead scout, Teldin. He tells
them that they have a strike team of 10 elves ready to
take down the thri-kreen. If the players aid in the
Race
Sapling
Saplings are wooded creatures who are born from
magical centers of the feywild or material plane. Often
revered in wood elf communities as holy gifts from
whichever nature god they serve. Saplings can grow to
become anyone and wisen with their long life.
Deep Roots
Nature works in mysterious ways, and not all saplings are
aware of why they were born. Saplings are made of pure
wood and have full control of their bodies through magic
as brought upon by their soul. The life of the world itself
is in their spirit and they possess an otherworldly
wisdom even at a young age. They often look different
based on where they originated from. Saplings can come
from birch trees, oak, or even nearly burned ones that
give them an ashen appearance. Saplings are small and
smooth when first born and grow into tall lumbering
stalks.
In creating an Sapling adventurer, consider the
character’s purpose in life. Does the character want to see
more of the world? Do they have a threat they are trying
to prevent? Or is your Sapling the creation of a ritual with
no clear purpose?
Beings of Change
Saplings are no longer stationary plants who are at the
whim of the world, now they have a chance to forge their
own path. Saplings may be slow to learn but are never
afraid of change. Death, life, a new home, or a new world
is just as the seasons change to a sapling. They adapt to
the world around them in hopes to find or conclude their
purpose.
Sapling Names
A Sapling chooses their name based on where they were
born. They typically have botanical names but they can
also take elven ones.
Ability Score Increase
Your Wisdom score increases by 2 and your Constitution
increases by 1.
Age
Saplings mature over the course of 20 years, and reach
old age at 250. Old age for sapling really means they are
not as agile or strong as before, but still have their
wisdom. Saplings can live upwards to 5000 years.
Alignment
Saplings tend toward idealistic goodness, and only in rare
awful cases are Saplings evil.
Size
Your size is Medium. To set your height and weight
randomly, start with rolling a size modifier:
Size modifier = 2d6
Height = 6 feet + 1 inch + your size modifier in inches
Weight in pounds = 155 + (2d4 × your size modifier)
Speed
Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Lumber Body
You are resistant to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing
damage from non-magical attacks. However you are
vulnerable to fire damage.
Rooted
You have advantage on any roll that tries to knock you
prone.
Fruit Growth
Once per 30 days, a fruit of your choice grows on your
body. You grow 10 pounds of fruit, enough to feed 10
medium sized creatures for one day.
Languages
You can speak, read, and write Common, Druidic, and one
other language of your choice.
