Acacia
Acacia (a.k.a. The Reaching Green)
Acacia, the ruler of the Court of Rampant Green, embodies the untamed and flourishing beauty of nature. She is a majestic and ancient ArchFey whose presence commands awe and respect among her subjects and the wilds alike. Her glamoured appearance is a harmonious blend of human and plant, reflecting the deep connection she shares with the forest and all its creatures.
Acacia stands tall and graceful, with skin that resembles smooth, polished bark, mottled with the rich greens and browns of the forest. Vines and leaves intertwine with her form, growing naturally from her body as if she were an extension of the forest itself. Her hair cascades like a waterfall of vibrant green leaves, interspersed with delicate flowers that bloom and fade with the changing seasons. Her eyes are a luminous, verdant green, glowing with the wisdom of centuries and the fierce energy of the wild.
She wears a gown woven from living plants—moss, ivy, and delicate blossoms—that shifts and changes with her mood. Her crown is a circlet of twisted branches adorned with acorns, berries, and small glowing orbs that resemble fireflies. Around her neck hangs a pendant crafted from a single, perfect acorn, symbolizing the seeds of life that she nurtures.
Her court is close with the Seafoam Court. In the early days of the isles, she allowed the green of the land to dip into the waters washing upon the isles, and there she and Narahm met and they become lovers.
Acacia was once considered a gentle lord of green, her domains lush and ripe with life. However, as human advancement on the isles continued, she pulled away from the mortal realms, taking particular insult at the humans' "domestication" of plant to use as crops--no longer allowing the plants and vegetation to grow wild and free as it was meant to. She became embittered against the peoples and would have likely turned directly against them, if not for Narahm's peaceful counsel. However, after Narahm was taken prisoner by the Oleander Throne outside of Paraetonium, she reached back into the mortal realm through an old shrine dedicated to her and she unleashed herself fully.
No longer was she a creature of peaceful green, but she was rampant. She focused upon "invasive" plants hoping to strangle out the human settlements as her vines reached out to find Narahm's prison. She was discovered by the party, and she gave pause when she noticed that Zadock Marlin wore a symbol of Narahm and she agreed to aid the group in recovering her lover. Together, they freed Narahm from the OIeander forces as her vines grew out to strangle the city of Paraetonium. Narahm remains as a peaceful counsel to her more radical impulses, but she has kept influence among the mortal realm, looking to take back as much of the green as she can.

Taboos
Acacia may never harm a seed and, within her realm, she may never allow a tree to die alone, being present at the end of its life, seeing that its remains are returned to the earth in a respectful manner. She may never wield or handle metal.
