ABOUT

Rootless trees are walking and talking trees that live in a forest. They love to tend to their less capable friends, normal trees, and hang out with them. They also like to talk to strangers passing through their forests so long as the outsiders don’t do anything to jeopardize the safety of their friends or of their forest. Rootless trees play instruments and read books in their free time, despite the sense of melancholy this brings, as they wish to expand their worldview.

Friend of Friends of Nature. Rootless trees aren’t hostile towards creatures who don’t hurt them or the forest.

Forest Itself. Rootless trees tend to be really old. They thus know all kinds of things about their forest.
