THE DRYAD and DIRK THE MIGHTY
"The Dryad" is a fey of the forest. Her very life force is linked to the trees around Crescent Star Lake.
Dirk the Mighty is presumably a fey. He can transform himself into a tree ogre at will. Nobody knows why he keeps his right eye shut all the time.
Dirk loves The Dryad with all his heart and would readily break anyone who threatened her. The Dryad does not seem to mind her beau's vigilance.
BRIEF HISTORY
The mysterious and beautiful forest fey known only to a few mortals as "The Dryad" is the favored one of the Sylvan Oracle. She has roamed the trees that surround the Crescent Star Lake for generations. With her very soul tied to the well-being of the trees, she does all that is within her power to keep the forest safe. It has been said that The Dryad can make the trees themselves move, and that she can walk the paths that the ancient roots have carved far into the earth. The Dryad knew she was being watched, however. There was another inhabitant of her forest that had been trying to capture her affections for many moons. He was a small, strange creature that called himself Dirk the Mighty. On the outside, he was harsh and tough like the bark of a tree. On the inside, The Dryad knew him to be as soft as a flower's petals.
While she is a powerful creature of the woods, but she is not invincible. A terrible Infernomancer came to the Crescent Star Lake to murder The Dryad. He and his barbarian cut down many trees, which in turn sliced into her very heart. Dirk the Mighty rescued her from certain death and sought the aid of the Sylvan Oracle. The omnipotent fey had him seek the aid of a nearby traveler, one Gregory Deegan. Soon, others joined in the fight to save The Dryad and defeat the Infernomancer!
CURRENT STATUS
The Dryad is safe once again, healed by the magic of the Sylvan Oracle. She at last recognized Dirk's affections and he could not be happier, though he still rarely smiles. They, along with the all-seeing eye of the Sylvan Oracle, protect the trees of the Crescent Star Lake with renewed fervor.
