I enjoyed reading the "Tree People" article in the Pyramid Dungeon Collection. I'm intrigued by the idea of sessile trees sending a spiritual projection of themselves on adventures. This made me also wonder about motile plants as a possible race for PCs.

The trétrold from Dungeon Fantasy Monsters 2 is a good beginning since they aren't overly monstrous. As they stand, however, they're too powerful. Perhaps, though, there are young saplings that occasionally team up with regular adventurers to go on quests. Has anyone tried speccing them out as a DFRPG-style race? Can they be made unique and interesting without costing more than 40 points (the current maximum cost for Cat-Folk)?
