Hamadryad

Hamadryads, akin to regular dryads, are normally just as shy and seclusive, but are pointedly not guardians of the forest as a whole; only ever being bonded to a single tree, their lives intertwined. Only one is ever encountered, during Baldur's Gate in the Fourth Cloakwood, and she is always hostile; it's unknown exactly why, as most Dryads are relatively friendly, though the recent activity at the Cloakwood Mine to the east could be reason enough.
== Gameplay ==
The Hamadryad can be a very evasive enemy, casting Dimension Door to evade the party, while casting several spells – two times each Dire Charm, Hold Person and Entangle – before eventually engaging in melee combat. She is immune to webs, fire, cold, acid and electric damage and has a resistance to missile damage. In she is also immune to paralysis. It is fairly difficult to get close enough to attack with melee weapons due to the repeated Dimension Doors, though the teleportation is short-range and predictable. She also has fairly high saving throws, so most spells and abilities will likely not make a difference.
