Druid Special Abilities

Animal Summoning
Prerequisite: Wis 13+
Effect: You can summon one or more animals to help you. You may select the variety and number of animals to summon (limited by the chart below), but their combined total hit dice may not exceed your own. The animals will perform whatever task you can communicate to them that they are capable of. If you do not give them a task, they will follow you around and defend you. Summoned animals appear by your side and remain for up to 5 rounds + 1 round per druid level. At the end of this time, they disappear. The round in which you summon the animals does not count towards the duration, but the animals can attack immediately. You can use this spell-like ability once per day. This ability stacks; each time you select it, you may use it an additional time per day.

Prerequisite: Druid level 3+

Photosynthesis
Prerequisite: Plant Defiance, Wild Shape: plant
Effect: You derive power from sunlight. All effects require direct sunlight to function, though being in the shade of trees or similar natural objects (but not mountains or hills) is acceptable.

Creatures within the area who fail a Ref save DC 10 + 1/2 druid level(round up) to avoid the effect cannot move and suffer a -2 circumstance penalty to any physical action, including attacking and spellcasting with somatic components.

A creature who has broken free has one round to move out of the area or become entangled again. Using this ability is a standard action that provokes attacks of opportunity. It lasts 5 rounds + 1 round per level and can be used once per day per level.
- You can cause plants within a 15 foot radius of yourself to either shrink to 1/3 of their normal size or grow to twice their size. The plants only change in size, and their life cycle is not affected (new flowers do not bloom, seeds do not ripen, etc.). This is a full round action that provokes attacks of opportunity.
- You can cause plants within a 100 foot radius of yourself to either have twice or half their normal yield at harvest time, as long as the harvest will be at least one week and no more than 6 months after you use this ability. It takes one minute of concentration to cause this effect.
- Any Plant creatures you encounter have their initial attitude towards you shifted one category friendlier, though they will not become fanatic.
- You can use Wild Empathy to affect plants.

Plant Mastery
Prerequisite: Plant Affinity
Effect:
- Your Plant Affinity Entangle effect now also causes damage from thorns, suckers, and stabbing shoots. Creatures who fail their Ref save to avoid the effect now also take 1d6 points of damage per three Druid levels every round they remain entangled. Creatures who manage to break free can now only move half speed to exit the affected area. They are also subject to one touch attack per 5 foot square of affected area entered (their starting square does not count) at your base attack bonus + your Wis bonus. If this attack succeeds, they take 1d4 points of damage from spiky undergrowth.
- You can change the characteristics of plants of a single type in a 15 foot radius around yourself, adding or subtracting any one of the following: spikes, flowers, seeds, berries, bark, poison. Alternatively, you can change the size (up to 3x normal), shape, and color of existing plant parts in one type of plant. The plants will be forever changed to produce or not produce the characteristic you chose. This is a full round action that provokes attacks of opportunity and can be used once per day per level. You can change the same plants multiple times, but only once per round.
- You can force the life cycle of plants in a 15 foot radius of yourself. This accelerates the plants' normal growth so that new flowers are produced, seeds ripen, size is increased, etc. It takes one full round to cause one-half of a season's worth of growth. You can maintain this ability for as long as you concentrate, up to 10 rounds. This ability is useable once per day per level.
- You can transplant 1 square foot of plants per level from any location you can see to any other location you can see. You can change the orientation of the entire plot, but not rearrange plants within the plot. The plants will neither suffer from transplant shock nor die as a result of transplanting, regardless of how fragile they may be. This is a standard action that provokes attacks of opportunity and can be used once per level per day.
- You cannot be affected by the entanglement affect of another Druid with Plant Affinity or Plant Mastery. You can pass through any such area as if it had only normal plant undergrowth, and you suffer no damage from the entanglement effect.
- Plant creatures will not attack you unless you attack first, regardless of their attitude towards you. Plant creatures can now have their attitude shifted to fanatic towards you.

Poison
Effect: Your natural attacks also inflict poison. This ability affects all your natural attacks and functions while you are in any form. The poison causes 1d3 points of primary damage and 1 point of secondary damage to one ability score, chosen by you when you take this ability. The primary damage increases by 1 point per three druid levels. The secondary damage increases by 1 point per four druid levels. The poison cannot be harvested for external use. This ability does not stack; each time you take it, it applies to a different ability score. The Fort save for the poison is 10 + 1/2 Druid level (round up) + Con modifier.

Regeneration
Effect: You can grant one creature per day the ability to regenerate new wounds. This ability has no effect on wounds acquired before the ability is applied. The creature, which can be you, regenerates 1 hit point per Druid level per round. The regeneration lasts 1 minute + 1 minute per Druid level. This ability stacks; each time you select it, you may use it an additional time per day.

Speak With Animals
Prerequisite: Wis 13+
Effect: You can vocally communicate with normal and dire animals of any type. This ability is continuous and can be suppressed at will with a free action.

This is a supernatural ability.

Speak With Plants
Prerequisite: Wis 15+
Effect: You can vocally communicate with plants and plant creatures of any type. This ability is continuous and can be suppressed at will with a free action.

Tree Door
Prerequisite: Plant Control, Plant Affinity, Druid level 5+
Effect: You can use trees to travel from place to place. You step into one tree and exit another as a move equivalent action. A tree must be at least as tall as you in order to use this ability. You must be able to see the trunk of the destination tree, and it must be within long range. To exit through a tree you cannot see, you must first spend 100xp with a 1 minute ritual that includes touching that tree. After the ritual is complete, you can exit through that tree from any other tree on the same plane. You may have one tree so designated per druid level at any given time. It is a free action to break the ritual for any one tree, and you regain 25xp from doing so. This is a supernatural ability.
