Sentient plants, or greenfolk, are a wondrous new life form. Mobile and sometimes ferocious, they have the ability to think and reason and can carry unusual mutations. They can be fearsome opponents and valued allies. Generally, looking like their plant ancestor they can uproot themselves to move and all Gamma Age player character greenfolk have the ability to manipulate their surroundings and can communicate verbally and sometimes even telepathically. Greenfolk that are decended from vine-like plants are known as creepers. Creepers are the fastest moving of all of the greenfolk. Agile & proficient climbers, a creeper's living areas usually has a vertical orientation.
