AElheim Sequoia
Habitat:
Only found in AElheim's forests, typically near areas at the edges of forests that have hot, dry summers. Although, many have been grown inside the basin with the help of druids.
Size:
This tree is one of the largest in the world, capable of growing a few hundred meters high and dozens of meters thick. Unlike normal sequoia, this variation has branches and leaves that extend quite far from the trunk, providing ample shade.
Biome Role:
This tree is incredibly massive and provides ample shade for life that grows in the shade it provides. Lots of wildlife uses the tree as a home as well.
Life Cycle:
These trees tend to live for centuries, if not forever unless a disease claims them or they are cut down. They only produce seeds every decade or so and the seeds tend to stay dormant in the ground until the conditions are just right.
Cultural Significance:
This tree is the choice for dense housing if living in a forest. Its massive size and incredible structural integrity allows for most of the insides of the tree to be hollowed out on top of having housing built outside of it. When used optimally, this tree can be used as a veritable woodland skyscraper. It is a popular tree for an aelf to bind to simply because it allows for one to make modifications to their living space as desired.
Description:
This massive bioluminescent tree has become a staple for housing in the AElheim forests.
Harvesting:
CR5 to safely fell
Notable Features:
- The tree is invaluable as a crafting resource – wood from it can last a lifetime without degrading
- Armor, shields, barriers, etc created from this tree are particularly effective at defending against non-magical attacks.
- The roots are incredibly sharp-tipped and strong, an ideal choice for a druid looking for a piercing weapon
