Forest Shamblers are the guardians of glades
About
Most are elemental constructs, their normally inanimate forms given will and mobility by powerful magics. They channel the innate sentience of the forests, the implacable patience and the anger of loss belonging to all trees.
When they encounter a threat, they summon the defenders of the woods toward them, often using overwhelming force and numbers to decimate small incursions into their domain.
It is troubling that in recent decades, more and more forest shamblers have taken to this path, abandoning the tranquillity of the forest in favour of a lifetime of war. They can be summoned to fight by the ancient tree herders, the druids or even an avatar of the Green Lady herself.
The power that binds their forms allows them to be built anywhere within the trees, their bodies being broken down and absorbed back into the woods, before being regrown in moments elsewhere. It is in this way that the relatively small numbers of guardians are able to protect vast swathes of woodland against all intruders.
When summoned by nature, these arboreal guardians are a sight to behold. Glowing with powerful magic, they march forth, led by the towering Tree Herders.
