Dryads ｢樹妖精, doraiado, lit. "tree fairies"｣ are elementals that have incarnated into plant life, their vessels known as "Dryas trees." They rank near the top of A rank, with some of the stronger ones among them reaching Special A. They are immortal, and only rarely leave their sacred dwellings.
Background[]
They're heralded by some as the wardens of the whole Jura Forest, the one who exact divine punishment upon those who damage the forest. Being the servants of the Elemental Queen, they have close affinity with other elementals and are able to summon their powers in battle, making them formidable opponents.
During the events of Opening of the Monster City, the dryads and treants reunited with their master Ramiris, moving into the 95th floor of the Dungeon alongside the elves that resides within the Jura Forest. After that, they became the primary manager and workers of the labyrinth, and helped their master to continue in her research.
Dryas trees[]
Dryas trees ｢大霊樹, doryuasu｣ are sacred vessels in the form of giant trees that house the souls of the dryads. It can be considered their true form or material body, from which they temporarily project their spiritual body into a temporary magic body to interact with others.
Dryas doll dryads[]
Dryas doll dryads ｢霊樹人形妖精, doryuasu dōru doraiado｣ are the result of a dryad's material body — the Dryas tree — being carved into a doll. This isn't a typical evolution but rather a change in status, allowing the dryad to move around freely without relying on a temporary magic body. All of the dolls produced by Rimuru Tempest are additionally modified with a chaos core, doubling the dryad's energy levels. Those Dryas doll dryads all rank at Special A, but it is possible for them to reach S.
