Ori of the Leaves

The Ori of the leaves are named this thanks to their leafy appearance. Leaves sprout from them as hair and sometimes in other areas such as off of their shoulders or arms. Compared to the Ori of the Wood, the Ori of the Leaves are more connected to the plant life of nature. They take a great deal of work in studying the patterns in magic and coming to see each plant as its own individual. They also take a great deal in caring for their forest homes, planning new plants and caring for those that are already there. Many of their homes and towns are built to ensure that they do not disrupt the life of the wilds.   Ability Score Improvement. Your Dexterity Score Increases by 1.   Size.

If it is a seed, it will grow into a blossom. If it is a dead of dying plant, this touch will give it light and reinstate its bloom.  

Ori of the Wood

The Ori of the wood take their appearance from that of a tree. Branches with leaves sprout from their heads and their skin is thick like bark. They are very similar to their Ori of the Leave kin and there are several communities that have both subraces as part of those communities. While the Ori of the Leaves focus more on the plants, the Ori of the Wood are more connected to wildlife. Many Ori of the Wood can often be seen with animals nearby, following around, or even perching on them. This is thanks to their friendly and safe presence. It is highly rare, and currently unheard of, for an Ori of the Wood to be evil.   Ability Score Increase. Your Constitution Increases by 1.   Size. Ori of the wood are between 6 and 7 feet. Your size is medium.   Speed. Your speed is 30 feet.   Communicate with Small Beasts. Through sounds and gestures, you can communicate simple ideas with small or smaller beasts.

Any non-Ori adventurer cannot tell the difference between you and an actual tree. While disguised as a tree you cannot move or speak, or the illusion is broken. You can only be discovered by a passed DC 15 perception check. You may enter or exit this illusion at any time using a bonus action.
