Background
In some ways, Maayan is a typical elf. Perhaps too typical. Her blood father was a tree shaper, and she inherited some of his talent, but little of his inclination to spend her life designing homes. Instead, she chose the life of a hunter, and chose it early. Her gift for magic was enough to pull her to that path rather than being a simple ranger. She was close to Shiphrah growing up, but noticed her sister's inclinations equally early - and tried her best to quell them. She knew that if Shiphrah continued the way she was going, bad things would happen. But still, she had her own life to live. When almost of age, she bonded to an animal companion, a cougar she called Kaza. She left her family to explore the woods and to learn, but when they needed somebody to send after Shiphrah...again...they chose her. And this time, she's not going to bring the rogue back. This time, she's going with her.
Maayan was born in the spring.

If you would normally be denied the ability to act in the surprise round, your initiative is equal to your initiative roll or the roll of your ally –1, whichever is lower.

The hunter is blinded while maintaining this connection.

- Woodland stride (Ex): You can move through any sort of undergrowth (such as natural thorns, briars, overgrown areas, and similar terrain) at your normal speed and without taking damage or suffering any other impairment.

Magical Abilities
- Spell Points: 5 (Caster Level + WIS modifier + 1 per 1.5 levels for drawbacks)
- Caster Level: +1
- Casting Ability Modifier: WIS (+3)
- Saving Throw DC: 13 (10 + 1/2 Caster Level + WIS modifier)
- Magical Skill Bonus: +1
- Magical Skill Defense: 12
Magical Tradition
- Extended Casting: Your magic takes longer to use than normal. When using an ability gained from a sphere or talent, increase the casting time by one step: swift actions become move actions, move actions become standard actions, standard actions become full-round actions, full round-action take 1 full round to complete and so forth.
- Focus Casting: Your magic requires you to touch an item to create magic. Using magic without your focus requires you to make a concentration check (DC 20 + 1/2 the caster level) to produce the desired effect. Failure means time (and any spell points) are spent, but no effect happens. If a focus is lost, stolen, or broken, the caster must create a new focus by securing the necessary item and spending 8 hours bonding with it.
Maayan's focus is her clan jewelry item.
- Verbal Casting: You must speak in a loud, clear voice to cast spells. Using magic alerts all nearby hearing creatures to your presence and location, effectively breaking stealth. You cannot cast in an area of magical silence, or in any other situation where you are unable to speak clearly.
Maayan casts magic using elven words of power. These are single words that seem to crack the air with power when spoken by a skilled practitioner.
Nature Sphere
You can command the very terrain to do your bidding.Base Powers

- Spell Point Cost: 0
- Action: Full-round due to Magic Tradition

As a standard action, you may command terrain and natural effects to act on your behalf. The effect produced depends on the environmental aspect targeted.

Creatures within this area must pass a Reflex save or gain the entangled condition and become unable to move. Creatures that make their save can move as normal, but those that remain in the area must save again at the end of each turn you maintain the effect.

Entangled creatures may attempt to break free as a move action, making a Strength of Escape Artist check equal to the effect's Reflex save DC. The area is also considered difficult terrain during the duration of the effect. If the area contained plant with thorn, all creature suffer 1 point of piercing damage each round they are within the area.

- Spell Point Cost: 0
- Action: Full-round due to Magic Tradition
- Range: Close (25 ft)
- Duration: Concentration. May spend a spell point for 1 round/caster level without concentration.
Requires a tree. You cause a tree branch to come alive and attack a foe you designate. The tree is not ambulatory but makes one slam attack each round against the designated target until you spend a move action to designate another target or until the target dies or moves out of range. A tree branch cannot flank nor aid in flanking. You cannot designate a target you cannot perceive. The tree has a STR score equal to 10 + your caster level and a melee attack modifier equal to your caster level + it STR modifier + its size modifier.

Talents
Animal Friend (spirit)
- Spell Point Cost: 1
- Action: Full-round due to Magic Tradition
- Range: All animals within Close (25 ft) range
- Duration: 1 minute/caster level
You may spend a spell point to cause animals to treat you as a friend for 1 minute per caster level. Indifferent animals (such as domesticated animals) become Friendly to you, while Unfriendly animals (such as wild animals) become Indifferent to you. This means that wild animals will not attack unless provoked, and you may make requests of animals provided you may communicate with them. This has no effect on animals who are hostile to you and an animal with a master will still attack if commanded to by it master.
Once during the duration of the ability, you may call the nearest animal of a particular type you designate (provided the animal's CR is equal to or les than your caster level) to seek you out. If there is no animal of that type capable of reaching you within this effect's duration, ou are aware of this fact.
Speak with Animals (spirit)
- Spell Point Cost: 1
- Action: Full-round due to Magic Tradition
- Range: Self
- Duration: 1 minute/caster level
You may spend a spell point to gain the ability to speak with animals for 1 minute per caster level. You can ask questions of and receive answers from them, but the spell doesn't make them more friendly than normal. Wary and cunning animals are likely to be terse and evasive, while the more stupid ones make inane comments. If an animal is friendly toward you, it may do some favor or service for you.
Speak with Plants (plantlife, spirit)
- Spell Point Cost: 1
- Action: Full-round due to Magic Tradition
- Range: Self
- Duration: 1 minute/caster level
You may spend a spell point to gain the ability to speak with plants for 1 minute per caster level. You can communicate with normal plants and plant creatures and can ask questions of and receive answers from them. Plants may have limited awareness of their environment. The power doesn't make plant creatures any more friendly or cooperative.
Thorns (plantlife, geomancing)
- Spell Point Cost: 1
- Action: Full-round due to Magic Tradition
- Range: 5 ft radius centered on any point within Close (25 ft) range
- Duration: Concentration. May spend a spell point for 1 round/caster level without concentration.
You cause plants to grow spines and attack targets. This is the same as the entangle geomancing ability, except instead of making creatures entangled and unable to move, this effect deals piercing and slashing damage to them. Targets inside the area or who enter the area suffer 1d6 damage +1 per 2 caster levels (Reflex half). Creatures who remain in the area suffer damage once per round at the end of your subsequent turns. This does not stack with any thorns already on the plants used in the effect. You may place an entangle and thorns effect on the same space.
Growth (plantlife, geomancing)
- Spell Point Cost: 1
- Action: Full-round due to Magic Tradition
- Range: 1 plant per caster level within range.
- Duration: Instantaneous
You may spend a spell point to cause plants to sprout food spontaneously. You may affect up to 1 plant per caster level within range. Each plant produces enough food to provide 3 medium-sized creatures or 1 horse with food for a day.
Towering Growth (plant)
- Spell Point Cost: 1
- Action: Full-round due to Magic Tradition
- Range: 5 ft radius centered on any point within Close (25 ft) range
- Duration: Concentration. May spend a spell point for 1 round/caster level without concentration.
When creating an entangle or thorns effect, the effect grows tall enough to affect flying creatures as well. Creatures up to 10 ft per caster level over your entangle or thorns effects must pass a Reflex save or affected as normal. If they pass this Reflex save, they must still pass a Fly check (DC 15 + caster level) or be forced to fly at half speed while over the area. When affected by an entangle effect, flying creatures are pulled to the ground by the plants and become unable to move. Flying creatures grabbed by an entangle effect become prone, but do not take falling damage.
