Deep in the Great Faerie Woods, far past the Sea of Deep Regret and over the Mountains of High Achievement lies a small, small village. Now, the forest is filled with many dangerous things, ranging from the Snarboltrags and Willumps to the devious faeries themselves. Back to this village - now, the people of this village are able to fend for themselves. They may be short, clumsy, and some are not the brightest, but they all share the unique ability to shape the forest around them.
       Let me put an image in your head to help you understand this: one day, a wee forest dweller was approached by a Snarboltrag; quite vicious beasts they are. The Snarboltrag had backed the Dweller against a tree, but made one mistake; he backed the dweller against a tree. The dweller placed his hands on the tree, giving him command over its growth, and he warped it around the Snarboltrag until it couldn't move.
       That being said, the forest dwellers are usually a peaceful bunch. They share with the forest, and it shares with them, providing them with shelter in the form of tree-houses and food from its branches. They shape the trees to aid them, making small huts out of expanding knot-holes and gathering places under woven branches to keep them from rain. The rest of their story is up to you, the creator and explorer. You can decide to go the path of the Forest Dweller.

Here's an
