Rediscover the Woodland with three new factions and two new cards for Root!
Lily Pad Diaspora:
Long scattered and oppressed, the Lily Pad Diaspora now aspires to make the Woodland its home. Although it strives to integrate peacefully, peace is rare in the midst of civil war.
As it trains its warriors, it must ensure that its desire for security does not turn into outright aggression. Armed to the teeth, a simple misunderstanding between the Diaspora and the Woodland can escalate into brutal reprisals, strengthening the Diaspora's militancy and fueling resentment toward its cause.
Dusk Council:
Exasperated by this endless conflict, the Dusk Council organizes assemblies to end the war, bringing together all the inhabitants of the Woodland, from the humblest creatures to the most powerful hawks vying for the throne. These assemblies value political ties over the mere number of warriors, encouraging factions to move away from bloody battles and favor heated debates.
Deepwood Scoundrels.
No one really knows how this band of rogues and rascals came together, but legends abound. From the edge of the forest, they set out to raid barracks and baggage trains, taking warriors hostage.
Why? To demand a ransom, of course. Some say they give the money to those in need. Others say they spend it lavishly. In any case, their celebrations echo throughout the night, from the depths of the forest where few dare to venture. And who could blame them for spreading a little joy?
