Hey, I wrote this section ^_^ My coworkers at Paizo linked your video to me. Thanks for reviewing! It's always great to see people who appreciate what I've worked on, and leshys have a special place in my heart. Also, I laughed at the plant puns.

That's really cool, thanks for making them a thing. I like the idea of a Leaf Druid who dies in a campaign, and then the next character is their leshy familiar who gains independence/sentience from the shock. Gourd Leshy is probably my favorite, because I love pumpkin headed familiars.

I laughed at the bad flower puns. And let's be fair: An encounter with mushroom leshy assassins sounds badass.

Leshy glide + jump spell = poor mans fly

Honestly love the Leshy, being able to play as a Deku Scrub in a TTRPG sounds hilarious

What I've been waiting for. Flurry of blows seedpod monk is a blast so far.

I kind of wanna play a heavily-armored leshy who hides the fact they're a plant person for as long as they can.

I know they have an Int flaw, since I guess some literally don't have brains, I love the idea of an alchemy gourd leshy that uses head to store bombs. Or a rogue gourd Leshy that hoards in the gourd. Or a Summoner Leshy that summons bigger tree.

@@James-zr8vi Or even better, with the Alchemist feat that lets you bomb-throw your Elixirs, just start rapid-fire spitting out Elixirs to heal everyone. :) I will FOREVER think of Jack Pumpkinhead from Return to Oz (book: Land of Oz) for a Gourd Leshy. Or, hey, just keep your familiar in there.

I like the idea of playing a leshy leaf order druid with a leshy familiar and use the Summon Plant or Fungus spell to summon even more leshys.

There is acutally a lot implicit things that are.. strange.. When a Leshy dies, they explode and their Spirit returns to nature force. That is where it gets really messy, rulewise. There is nothing that says "Leshies cannot be revived." but the wording of the reviving spells kind of prohibit Leshies form being revived. The reason behind it ist that Leshies don't have souls in the common sense. They are spirits of life force itself and don't go to the river of souls. So they can't be pulled out ot there again. Thre is a lot more that is poorly worded or not explained enough. But all in all they are interesting to play.

@@TacticusPrime Gnomes are naturalized natives. That is to say that while they where of the first world--I believe this is also the case with Elves, sorta, but I could be wrong--they are now a part of this world, and is why they aren't fey typed. Id argue certain Leshies, player Leshies, have an extra oomph that keeps them semi tethered to their bodies. As in they will find their way back to them if revived. But that's reaching.

HP might be due to cell walls. Cell walls and cellulose can be very durable. Intelligence flaw might be rooted in the fact that while plants are good at producing energy, they don't produce enough to maintain a brain, while being efficient enough to function without a dedicated nervous system, let alone a brain.

Yo, I love this idea. I picture the character moving like leaves in the wind while slicing and dicing through the battlefield.

Listen to me very carefully: Vine leshy Wood kineticist Sentinel trees Leshy glide Place a tree on the battlefield, climb it, once bad guys chop it, you glide to the ground veeery slowly - slow enough to place another tree in your square and grab it again, not even touching the ground. And out of everyone's reach you just throw splinters at the enemies

Leshy are fun indeed. I can't wait until we can get more options for them in the future.

Due to a very hectic encounter with a vampire, I aways keep bottled sunlight with me

This comment is just thought I had while watching the video and just commenting as I laughed at the puns, also I love leshies. if you want to play a leshy of a plant that the heritages don't cover, slap a versatile heritage on that leshy and now you are a flower or tree leshy. low int because plants don't think, but seriously they are spirits that druids made a form for, but they are extremely young and are formed as adults, if your leshy is old, they probably shouldn't be a leshy anymore. dhampir leshy for having plant nourishment call for the blood of humanoids instead of the sun. harmlessly cute is an absolutely great feat and strong feat, shameless request is a 7th level skill feat, getting it at level 1 woah, but I am using it on a callow may changeling leshy who looks like a cute flower but will stab you in the back so fast. also I have contemplated whether you could combine leshy glide with stuff like Cloud step and some mad hops to effectively fly. Solar Rejuvenation is the same as the gnome's vivacious conduit but with a condition of a suitable environment. just finished the video and wanted to share Groot, the giant instinct barbarian aasimar leshy(Veranallia is your aasimar ancestor) because just having a tree leshy just grow and shrink and get mad is very, 'young Groot'.

In one of the games I'm running, there's a Gourd Leshy bard (a hollow head gives great resonance) with the Fortune Teller background, who took Familiar Master at level 2 to get a Rooster Familiar to perform alectryomancy (telling the future by watching how fowl eat grain) called Destiny, who lives in his head. As a GM, I rule that the rooster is mostly safe in there, except if Spring House (the Leshy, apparently named for a kind of storage house in certain US states (I'm Australian, so I took the players word for it) takes a critical hit or crit fails a save, in which case Destiny takes normal damage.

Legally obligated to say I laughed at the bad flower puns. Leshies are great, I played a giant instinct (leaf leshy wanting to become taller to reach the sun, because photosynthesis... and pruning trees if staying in the same spot in a forest since they're blocking 'her' sunlight) barbarian Leshy. Being a small race without a strength detriment makes it viable and completely ludicrous flavorwise. A normal scythe has a blade up to 90cm. A leshy is about 90cm. A large scythe meant I was lugging around a scythe of which the blade part alone was twice my size. I flavored as simply needing grasping reach to get a decent-ish grip on the weapon. It was by far and large the must hilariously stupid character I've ever played, I loved her. She also got harmlessly cute at level 3 through ancestral paragon, the complete mismatch between an all cutesie-played friendly child-sized plant girl with helicopter seeds (yes they drooped when sad or when denied) for her hair/ears lugging a massive scythe behind her led to some amazing role-playing moments.

I have and will torture again in the name of preserving nature.

Just to mention for food because I know a little bit about plants not a tree-hugger but I do like the outdoors a lot and learn a lot of things about animals and plants I have a simple solution for the need of nutrients for your leschi as long as you have humanoids in your party have them poop in the bottom of a bucket and make sure you have bags of soil along with you put the bags of soil on top the poop it is nutrients for plants problem solved I guess provided what you're eating before hand
