SPECIAL TRAITS

  • Mythic Fortitude. When Yggdrasil fails a saving throw, she can choose to sacrifice 50 hit points from one of her sections to succeed instead. This damage cannot be prevented by any means, and Yggdrasil cannot use this feature with a section that has fewer than 50 hit points.
  • Natural Defender. Yggdrasil deals double damage to objects and structures. On each of her turns, Yggdrasil can spend half of her movement to deal 200 bludgeoning damage to an object or structure within 5 feet of her. Overpowering Will. When any of Yggdrasil’s sections starts its turn, it can sacrifice 50 hit points to end a single condition currently affecting it. This damage cannot be prevented by any means, and Yggdrasil cannot use this feature with a section that has fewer than 50 hit points. Titanic Creature. Yggdrasil is a titanic creature which is so large that combat involves dividing her body up into various sections, each of which has a fixed initiative count on which it acts (losing initiative ties), detailed in its description. Each section is considered a unique creature for purposes of targeting (in case an effect or attack would include multiple targets), and effects that include an area may affect multiple sections of Yggdrasil if the area is large enough. Each section has its own hit points and actions but shares Yggdrasil’s other statistics (such as damage resistances, saving throws, etc.). When a section is reduced to 0 hit points, it becomes incapacitated until it regains hit points or Yggdrasil is slain, which causes it to die along with the World Treant. If a section has a speed, Yggdrasil can move up to that section’s speed during the section’s turn. Creatures can enter and occupy the same space as Yggdrasil, which is considered difficult terrain, and Yggdrasil cannot make opportunity attacks. Additionally, attempts to forcibly move Yggdrasil or any of her parts automatically fails.

MYTHIC EFFECTS

As a mythic creature, Yggdrasil has the following traits.

  • Lifewarden. Yggdrasil emits a field of life-giving energy in a 100-mile radius centered on her. The field has the following properties.
  • Judgement. When a creature Yggdrasil is aware of in the area is reduced to 0 hit points, she can choose to slay that creature instantly.
  • Life Sense. Yggdrasil senses the presence of all living creatures in the area, along with their creature type, alignment, and whether or not they are Epic or Deific.
  • Revitalize. When a creature Yggdrasil is aware of in the area is slain and its body remains intact, Yggdrasil can immediately choose to begin restoring that creature to life over the course of 1 hour. If the creature’s body remains in the area for the full duration, it is restored to life with full hit points.
  • Perpetual. Yggdrasil has planted her seeds across the planes. If the World Treant is slain, hundreds of the seeds begin to sprout and reincarnate Yggdrasil. Each seed takes more than a century to properly germinate, with ideal conditions increasing its growth rate. The first seed to reach full size becomes the new Yggdrasil, with all the memories and knowledge of its predecessor. When Yggdrasil is formed, she blooms in a spectacular display of iridescent flowers, unleashing millions of flying seeds that are magically distributed across the planes.
