|feature1=Innate Spellcasting
|flimit1=
|fdesc1={{SRD5trait}} The dryad’s innate {{srd5lc|Spellcasting Ability}} is {{SRD5|Charisma}} (spell save {{SRD5|DC}} 20). The dryad can innately cast the following {{srd5lc|Spell}}s, requiring no {{srd5lc|Material Component}}s:
:At will: {{5espell|Druidcraft}}
:3/day each: {{5e Spell Line|Entangle, Goodberry}}
:1/day each: {{5e Spell Line|Barkskin, Pass without Trace, Shillelagh}}

|feature2=Magic Resistance
|flimit2=
|fdesc2={{SRD5trait}} The dryad has {{srd5lc|Advantage}} on {{srd5lc|Saving Throw}}s against spells and other magical effects.

|feature3=Sovereign Fey
|flimit3=
|fdesc3=21 sovereign points
* {{5ep|Blossom Sovereign Template#Crown of Roses|Crown of Roses}} ({{srd5lc|Bonus Action}}, 1 point)

|feature4=Speak with Beasts and Plants
|flimit4=
|fdesc4={{SRD5trait}} The dryad can communicate with {{srd5lc|Beast}}s and {{srd5lc|Plant}}s as if they shared a {{srd5lc|Language}}.

|feature5=Sweet Scent
|flimit5=
|fdesc5=

|feature6=Tree Stride
|flimit6=
|fdesc6={{SRD5trait}} Once on her {{srd5lc|Turn}}, the dryad can use 10 feet of her {{srd5lc|Movement}} to step magically into one living tree within her {{srd5lc|Reach}} and emerge from a second living tree within 60 feet of the first tree, appearing in an unoccupied space within 5 feet of the second tree. Both trees must be {{SRD5|Large}} or bigger.

|feature7=Verdant Blessing
|flimit7=
|fdesc7=

|action1=Club
|alimit1=
|adesc1={{SRD5trait}} ''{{SRD5|Melee Weapon Attack}}:'' +4 to hit (+12 to hit with ''shillelagh''), reach 5 ft., one target. ''Hit:'' 2 (1d4) {{srd5lc|Bludgeoning}} damage, or 16 (1d8+12) bludgeoning damage with ''shillelagh''.

|action2=Fey Charm
|alimit2=
|adesc2={{SRD5trait}} The dryad targets one {{srd5lc|Humanoid}} or {{srd5lc|Beast}} that she can see within 30 feet of her. If the target can see the dryad, it must succeed on a {{SRD5|DC}} 14 {{SRD5|Wisdom}} saving throw or be magically {{srd5lc|Charmed}}. The charmed creature regards the dryad as a trusted friend to be heeded and protected. Although the target isn’t under the dryad’s control, it takes the dryad’s requests or actions in the most favorable way it can. 

Each time the dryad or its allies do anything harmful to the target, it can repeat the saving throw, ending the effect on itself on a success. Otherwise, the effect lasts 24 hours or until the dryad dies, is on a different plane of existence from the target, or ends the effect as a {{srd5lc|Bonus Action}}. If a target’s saving throw is successful, the target is {{srd5lc|Immune}} to the dryad’s Fey Charm for the next 24 hours. 

The dryad can have no more than one humanoid and up to three beasts charmed at a time.
