Sapient Pearwood
Sapient Pearwood are a type of magical tree found primarily in the Feywilds (Also known as the First World), and are semi-sentient. Unlike other trees in the Feywilds, they keep these properties when brought over to the Material Plane, allowing for the creation of various powerful and intelligent items from their wood.
Sapient Pearwood, while not truly sentient and unable to communicate in the usual sense, are still incredibly smart, especially for plants. They are able to uproot themselves and move to a new location should the current area they are in be deemed too dangerous due to any number of threats, including forest fires, lumberjacks, and Castordids.
Sapient Pearwood is highly sought after for its use in magical crafting, particularly for the creation of Hoarder's Chests, a large, ambulatory piece of luggage that is able to function similarly to a Bag of Holding, and that will follow its owner to the ends of the world, and even to other realms and dimensions.
