This is a homebrew D&D race that I made for a friend irl, but they never ended up getting used for anything in the end, so I figured I might as well let other people get some enjoyment out of them. They're called Rosefolk, and they're basically sentient rose bushes. They're powered by materials imbued with magic—called heartstones—which also allow them to cast some spells.
