Epimeliades

These nymphs are subspecies of Dryads. 
==Biology==
===Appearance===
They have white hair, and their skin looks like tree bark. 
===Aging===
Their lifespan is 400 years old so they age much slower than mortals. 
Age formula: Their apparent age as a decimal multiplied by 400. You may lower by half if you want. For example, if they have apparent age is 13 than you would type .13 times 400 in the calculator. You get 52 and you can lower by half so that makes their age range 26 to 52
===Source===
These nymphs do not have two parents, they instead are born from nature and have a source region.
Their source is apple trees and sheep trees. 
== Culture ==
Godly connections: Like other nymphs they are protected by the goddess Demeter and they give her thanks for that. They are also apart of Pans kingdom so they often refer to him as “Lord Pan” and you’ll hear them say things like “what in Pan’s wild” and “Thank Pan”
==Powers==
Please refer to the power-sets on the godrent page when choosing their powers.
===Major===
Chlorokinesis (Major/Moderate/Minor)
* The ability to manipulate plants, nymphs do not have the ability to harm plants, only help them and reshape them. This also doesn’t include any control over flowers. They get all uses back when they rest enough to not be tired. 
** 1-3 Alter a plant’s current condition by making it bend and grow up to 5ft (1.5 meters) They have six uses before getting tied 
** 4-6 Alter a plant’s current condition by making it bend, as well as grow 10 feet (3 meters). They have 11 uses before getting tired.
** 7-8 Alter a plant’s current condition by making it bend, grow up to 15 feet (4.6 meters), and make plants sprout from the ground. They have 16 uses before getting tired.
=== Minors ===
Strong Roots (minor)
* At any time dryads can create roots from their feet to keep themselves anchored in the ground. They cannot walk while they have these anchors.
** 1: It takes them 3 turns to form the roots, and it gives anyone trying to knock them over disadvantage. It takes 4 turns for them to retract the roots. 
** 2: It takes them 2 turns to form the roots, gives people trying to knock them over disadvantage, and on a roll of 15 or higher they can slowly heal themselves of any minor injuries. It takes them 3 turns to retract these roots. 
** 3: It takes them 1 turn to form the roots, gives people trying to knock them over disadvantage, and on a roll of 10 or higher they can slowly heal themselves of any minor injuries. It takes them 2 turns to retract these roots.
=== Signature abilities ===
These are powers that are so closely tied to the species that they won’t count for the power total. These are always minors. If you want to make one of these keep in mind that they should be relatively weak, especially when compared to the minors of the species. Often times these are powers that are a bit too complicated or powerful to be a given but not strong enough that it should take a power slot.
Lovers Curse (Signature Minor)
* There are many stories in which nymphs are involved that relate to love, in one way or another. As a result, certain nymphs have developed curses that, while hard to detect, they place as inactive upon their beloved. Should the person cursed perform an act of romantic love (Kissing, Long hugs, Telling someone that you really love them.) to someone besides the nymph, the minor nature based curse activates, causing effects like sunflowers temporarily growing from the cursed person's skin, roots wrapping around their shoes whenever they stand still, or all flowers smelling like wet garbage. It takes a day after using this ability for the curse to be removed or placed on another. It usually requires a personal item related to the target, such as a lock of hair, or a beloved trinket.
** 1: The curse remains active on the target for 6 hours
** 2: 12 hours
** 3: A full day
===Given===
Aura Sensing (given) 
*Wood nymphs can tell when someone is a child of a nature god but they can’t tell which one exactly. With the exception being Persephone because Persephone is also related to the death of plants and such.
Molting (given)
* If the nymph wishes they can molt (submerge into) into their source plant, or land formation. They tend to feel well rested when they re-emerge (they will feel awful if their source has been polluted or damaged). The catch is they have an terrible concept of time while molted and can miss out on decades if not careful. 
Last Act (given)
*This is a once per lifetime power. It’s when a nymph draws on their life force and forces all of the energy out. This allows them to do crazy things. (Ex: land nymphs making entire mountains). However they will become one with nature right after using this ability.
===Blessings===
Blessings are given for temporary moments in role play. They are regulated by staff
Demeter's Wrath (Blessing)
*In a temporary moment in battle (often one when nymphs are in danger) Demeter sends her rage at the enemy through her child or a nymph. This gives them boosts in all of their powers so they can use them a level higher than they should be able to.
