==Lichen Leshy==

Like the curious plantlike organisms from which they’re composed, lichen leshys are rugged creatures able to survive in unforgiving climates. Unlike most leshys, lichen leshys are rarely content to stay in one place for long, instead using their survival skills to reach the grandest vistas, harshest environs, and most daring heights. There, they rest in quiet contemplation and awe, slowly breaking down inhospitable rocks into nutrient-rich soil that can sustain new plant life.

Lichen leshys almost always wear cozy rain cloaks that they use to blur their outlines and better camouflage their forms. They often secret away tiny mementos within their garb to remind them of their greatest achievements, and one can earn a lichen leshy’s ready assistance if willing to listen to its rambling tales of how it found each trophy.

This mossy clothing functions as masterwork padded armor for a lichen leshy, but not for any other creature.

'''Growing a Lichen Leshy:''' A lichen leshy can grow nearly anywhere that’s exposed to clean air, though most creators prefer large, rocky escarpments. The creator prepares an unguent of spores, aromatic salts, and pure rainwater, which she uses to paint an image of the leshy-to-be on the growing surface. Once the leshy has matured, it peels itself off the prepared surface. Left to its own devices, it can construct its rain cloak and other gear from available materials within a day. Ritual Requirements: CL 10th; Price 4,500 gp, Knowledge (nature) 5 ranks, plant growth, soften earth and stone, summon nature’s ally III; Skill Knowledge (nature) DC 15; Cost 2,250 gp

Lichen Leshys debuted in the ''Ironfang Invasion'' [[Adventure Path]], in the module "Fangs of War".
