Changes

* '''Plant Empathy ([[Su]]):''' A dryad continually senses the health of all plants around her, as with a ''[[SRD:Detect Animals or Plants|detect animals or plants]]'' effect in a 60' sphere emanating from the dryad. She does not need to concentrate on this ability, and receives the third-round information immediately.* '''Tree Spirit ([[Su]]):''' Dryads are the spirits of trees, and each one has a single tree somewhere that she is particularly fond of. So long as her special tree is alive, the dryad does not age and can be raised from the dead without level loss or material components (and may retain her current form if reincarnated). However, if her tree is destroyed, she immediately gains a negative level and loses the benefits of this ability. This loss does not go away unless and until she performs a 1-hour ritual to reestablish a link with a new tree, or until the old tree is restored. She cannot perform this ritual on a tree already linked with another dryad.<br />When in physical contact with her special tree, the Dryad can duplicate a ''[[SRD:Commune with Nature|commune with nature]]'' effect centered on the tree as a spell-like ability. This takes the same time as casting the spell, but is usable at will.<br />Most adventuring Dryads have naturally well-protected trees (by selection bias if nothing else), and this should probably come up no more often than other characters having families and the like.
