History

Past history remains unrelayed and uncertain.

---

She is presently noted by others on occasion. Sightings are typically around fields and farmland, where the soil is better for produce.

---

Interaction has thus been reported as sparse, not every individual evidently making an attempt or showing leniency. Often has noted or assumed aggression and abruptly departed when neared, resulting in confusion on the part of farmhands and other persons guarding relevant spaces.

Trivia

Cannot audibly speak. Can however hear and communicate nonverbally.

Does not appear to by far register anything visual despite coherency. Despite this, remains aware of self-related motion, other motion, and surrounding noises. This is evidently often focused on for defensive and communicative purposes.

Uses different utensils on occasion, knives included, to carve wording and symbols into nearby surfaces in order to further communicate.

These often appear worn or rusted, as if discarded. It is not unlikely that she has retrieved tools from beneath the ground soil due to awareness through her root systems.

Clothing is reused or stolen on occasion, evidently. Due to infrequent damage to herself, replacements are similarly recurrent.

Appears aware of other individuals through sound or vibrations, and may have some degree of limited sight through her plant-related structure (specifically limbs and tail).

Does not appear fazed if neared by a person, albeit only if hostility is evidently lacking. Responses are different if understanding the individual is not theriomorphic, human-like, or relevant structurally.

Often collects seeds from nearby plants and buries them in the ground. These are either left alone or waited near. A makeshift farm can result eventually by this means.

Appears to appreciate vegetables and ground crops more than tree-based produce. This may be due to convenience and familiarity.

Can be likened to a protective figure ambiently and in appearance, concerning occasional inertia. This is whether behaviour correlates to relevant crops or other factors.

Often becomes static when waiting for plant growth or when aware of others' presence. That she may not put down any relevant items yet can offset assumption. Having a defense can be useful in certain locations, which is something evidently understood by her.

Travels frequently and may not remain to a specific location for durations longer than a week to a month.

Attempts to log current transiency are ongoing, sightings infrequent.

Evidently has a cohesive awareness of folklore and oral traditions. Despite this, remains unable to relay stories and literature verbally. Written word is however not beyond her, limited visual capacity meaning that wording may be apparent to her.

Trees and other living plants are treated with a duality of respect and as means to correspond with other individuals to that degree.

Passages of various archaic works may be left on tree bark or other surfaces for a variety of reasons, leading to locals questioning relevant factors.

May write other sentences or stanzas that are apparently self-originated, although more infrequent as an occurrence.

Seems to prefer flowery language as opposed to a clinical tone.

If aware of someone nearby and there is no conflict, there may be an attempt to communicate.

Appears afraid of sharp sounds on occasion, being aware of correlation between persons and weaponry.

Occasionally may be injured by ambient factors, if not to a lesser frequency by persons unaware of her benign nature. However, such occurrences do often happen without related defensive rationality: swift departure or retaliation at times decided.

Evidently capable of disappearing rapidly. There have been claims that the ground is burrowed into.

Following such occurrences, it is not long before presence is again evident. That this may be a considerable distance away from the prior location yet brings inquiry.

Those occurrences may however be one-sided due to various factors, not everything capable of being warded off.

If her head is broken, the interior seeds do not take very long to produce a new individual.

This individual retains recollection of occurrences and reacts with fear to present or otherwise recalled surroundings.

By extent of this, a given terrain may be abandoned for self-interest, if not related purposes, unease not appearing irrelevant.

Earlier terrain yet might be returned to eventually for a variety of reasons, despite recollection.

The gourd that makes up her head and evidently mind is never carved as it may otherwise rot, but may have various eye and mouth shapes loosely drawn on it with charcoal. This is evidently self-caused, whether memory or cognisance of herself prompts that decision.

Rain often washes patterns away during certain seasons, meaning a lack of features depending on the situation.

As long as the gourd remains intact, her overall self appears unchanging.
