Esmerantis is one of the sacred tree spirits in our world. Some are known to be shy creatures, only coming out of their shell when the Goddess Artemis is around. Whilst Esmerantis is one of the curious one's-trying to discover the world around her, she has yet to learn that not all things are as bright and beautiful as they seem. Despite sometimes watching people pass by, she does communicate with some of her curiosity gets the best of her. She will gladly help a child in aid that is lost and struggling to find it's way home. Most of all, Esmerantis helps protect the nature-her natural habit and the trees around her. Esmerantis has been blessed with a long life, from the Gods and she is very thankful to them for giving her such an honer and duty.
She is more vocal and visible through out the Spring and Summer time. You can catch her guarding her tree, or making sure the animals are safe. Some even spot her helping out a stranger. If you're lucky you might even catch her playing the flute and singing a beautiful song. During the Autumn and Winter, Esmerantis is more tired and most likely asleep, unless someone disturbs her with their thievery and deception. Even if she looks innocent and like she is resting, she is always aware of the things that are going on around her.

Most Dryads commonly live in an Oak Tree, but Esmerantis is one of the few rare one's that choose another tree to inhabit. She lives inside of a sacred Weeping Willow tree, that is special to the Deities and Gods. The sacred tree grows fruit of the Gods-they are disguised as apples to the untrained eye. But only when someone is rewarded for good deeds and courage, by the Dryad or the Gods themselves, the fruit on the tree will turn into anything that hero desires-rewarding them with wisdom.
The color of the leaves change color according to season. In the Spring and Summer time, the long leaves are bright and rich bluey-green color. When Esmerantis is hiding within it, her already green hair blends in causing her hair to look slightly blue.
In the Autumn time, the leaves turn a golden orange, yellow color. As winter slowly approaches the leaves start to turn a silvery color, before snow finally covers it in pure white.
