Springtime Custom Competition Poll - Congrats Astroking112! Congratulations @Astroking112 ! Your entries never bore us and now you get the recognition you deserve.



Arboris



Bio: Spoiler Alert! Ancient Elven legends tell of an older time on Feylund, one in which nature desperately battled against a still-forming planet in order to secure its foothold. Amongst these warriors of life were the Ents, mighty tree-like creatures that could spread the seed of life across the barren surface. According to the Elves, these Ents traversed the entire length of the planet shortly after its formation, growing and spreading life every step of the way. Unfortunately, no concrete proof has ever been found of the Ents' existence, leading many to believe them to be a mere fairy tale.



Intrigued by these legends, Ullar began to look to the distant past, to see if they were true. None of the other generals were privy to what he saw, but the sudden appearance of Arboris, a creature who grew to monstrous heights when left undisturbed, indicated that the general had indeed found something



This contest brought forth many unique ideas, one idea that you will see over and over again, and a couple you'll see a couple of times. Thanks to everyone who entered, and good luck again. And good job getting exactly 15 entries in! And thanks again to Xotli for upping the polls' max to 15 options!



Here are the entries, in no particular order. I'll try to get more rulings and synergies posted in the next few days.



The Dewk's

Wood Elemental



Bio: Spoiler Alert! Standing on a ridge with his coalition allies, surveying his newly summoned elemental force assembling for the first time, General Ullar turned as he heard Sergeant Drake Alexander recite, awestruck, As I was standing on the hill, I looked toward Birnam, and I thought I saw the forest begin to move  General Ullar smiled  he liked the human known as "Shake Spear" too. It was a shame he couldnt justify his summoning, despite the seemingly ferocious name.



Taeblewalker's

Darkwood Treant Guardian





Ronin's

Wooden Revenant





OmegaPegasus's

Birch Sentry



Bio: Spoiler Alert! Of all the races found in Valhalla, none are more solitary than the Woodkin. Tree-like beings of great fortitude and physical strength. They prefer to keep to themselves and protect the Great Forests they call home. But the War for the Wellsprings has been creeping ever closer to the tree line and the Woodkin are preparing to meet it if they need to. Aquilla has seen their passion for Nature and has decided to recruit these behemoths as much needed muscle for her army.

First among the troops are the Birch Sentries. The vanguards of the Woodkin. Armed with their thick shields and the uncanny ability to be connected to each other through and unseen root system and therefore strengthening their resolve. They are the epitome of Strength in numbers.



ollie's

Enchanted Tree



Bio: Spoiler Alert! Legend has it that thousands of years ago Feylund was almost entirely covered with enchanted forest. However, as Feylundians discovered the various magical properties that the trees' wood gave objects manufactured from it (from flying battleships all the way down to plaque-repellent toothpicks) it was harvested past the point of its ability to regenerate.



As a lumberjack hoping to make a levitating bucket swung her axe to fell the last tree, Ullar reached into the wellspring to bring it to Valhalla. Ever since, enchanted forests have been spreading across battlefields, calling to the Feylundian souls of warriors all over Valhalla.

NecroBlade's

Timber Custodian



Bio: Spoiler Alert! The general was furious. His enemies had fled into the woods as his troops pursued, but now instead of finishing off the stragglers, they found themselves attacked by the forest itself! He had no quarrel with these new treefolk, but if they insisted on defending themselves, interrupting his moment of triumph, so be it. The general ordered torches taken down into the wood; he would burn the whole grove, intending to send a message to any other trees his troops might find themselves fighting among.



Flames grew and spread. Bark crackled. The general smiled. But then the trees' screams were joined once more by those of his men. Putting his joy on hold, he tried to peer into the thicket to see what was happening, but smoke from the fires was darkening the already shaded undergrowth. The shouting finally stopped, and so did the creaking of branches.



While he waited impatiently for the smoke to clear, or someone to report, the general noted it wasn't just his troops and the treefolk that had grown quiet, it was the entire forest. In the back of his mind, he knew that was never a good sign and involuntarily took a step back. Just then, the wind picked up and the view started to clear.



As the shadows became revealed, so too did the sound of trees once more. Big trees. Moving trees. Out of the underbrush marched huge, slow treefolk, seemingly unscarred by the flames. They let out a collective long, low bellow as they pushed on out of their home and toward the general and his remaining men.



Retreating only made the general's anger grow, but it was a fury that would have to pick another fight.



Lazy Orang's

Jubokko

Spoiler Alert!





Glyph:

Spoiler Alert!







Bio: Spoiler Alert! Bio: On the fields of war and sites of vicious massacres, where the blood of thousands of warriors has saturated the soil, a strange kind of tree can be found. From afar, jubokko appear to be ordinary trees, indistinguishable from the various species that dot the landscape. Outwardly, they look just like ordinary trees. It takes an observant eye to notice the slightly more fearsome features of its branches, or the piles of human bones buried in the undergrowth beneath the tree. In fact, they were once normal trees, but the vast amounts of the human blood absorbed through their roots causes them to transform into yokai. Thereafter the tree thirsts only for human blood.

Jubokko wait for unsuspecting humans to pass underneath their branches. When somebody gets close enough, they attack, snatching their prey up with long, jagged, finger-like branches, and hoisting it up into their boughs. These branches pierce the skin of their victims, sucking out all of the blood with special tube-like twigs. After the body is drained of everything the jubokko can take, the rest is consumed by birds, insects, and other animals, until only the dry bones fall back to earth. By the time most people are close enough to notice the heaps of bleached bones at the base of the tree, it is already too late to escape.

There is a glimmer of hope though - Jubokko can be cut down, and, as blood trickles from the cut bark, branches, dripping blood, can be harvested. These can be used to heal and decontaminate injuries by sucking away the impurities, much like a leech would, even in the midst of battle.

Tsuri Oni





HEROSCAPERMTL's

Elder Oak



Bio: Spoiler Alert! On the forest planet of Feylund, trees are vastly numerous and by no means a rare sight. Many creatures of Feylund call the forest their home, but it is the trees themselves who protect it.



Capable of lumbering movement and far reach, these massive trees patrol the forests of Feylund with one sole duty; to ensure peace and tranquillity. Friendly elves are often carried into battle atop one as an illustration of their alliance. Among these trees are the oldest and wisest of Feylund, known simply as Elder Oaks.

Wood Golem





DewNoHarm's

Gnarl of Elder



Bio: Spoiler Alert! Deep in the forest of Feylund, one of the lower Esenwein clan crouched in a tree, poised to take a squad of Aubrien Archers unaware. The Esenwein leaders had ordered the vampire on a scouting mission, hoping to find some elvish victims that could eventually be used in Nicholas Esenwein's experiments. Although tonight it looked like the hunt would favor the Esenweins, the vampire shuddered involuntarily - Nicholas' black magic frightened even him. Just as the Esenwein soldier was preparing to start his Chilling Touch spell and leap from the crux of the tree, a large branch next to him swung forcefully and hit him in the head. It was as if the tree which had been his ambush position had suddenly become his enemy! The vampire shakily rose to the skies trying to avoid the notice (and more importantly the arrows) of the Aubriens. A massive boulder crashed through the branches below and hit the vampire squarely, knocking him back down to the ground. The last thing the Esenwein minion saw was a giant tree man leering above him. The last thing he heard was, "You shouldn't have come this deep into the forest, bloodless one".
