"I know what you're thinking. Do I have five bunnyberries in my blaster or six? Do you feel lucky, punk?" - Sallia, A Very Ambitious Level One Scout

Many years ago, the Canopy Elves discovered that some of the sap dripping out of the Elevere Trees had a very unexpected property - it seemed to ignore the effects of gravity. What's more, applying this sap to a piece of wood created a highly dynamic mode of transportation - the hoverboard!

Paired up with their trusty blasters, a Scout is a speedy ranged force to be reckoned with. Scouts can zoom in and out of any battle and hit far away targets with pinpoint accuracy with their personalized blasters that can fire, well, almost anything. Smoke bombs, icy sap balls, sharp acorns, fruit slime traps: the Scout's ammo pouch is a virtual cornucopia of pain. By the time the monster wipes the goop out of its eyes and charges the Scout, he's already hopped on his board and sped away.


Scout Abilities
Should a combat situation arise, Scouts may choose from abilities such as ...
Need for Speed - Supercharges your hoverboard, greatly increasing its speed and the chance of you falling off.
Crackshot - If you keep your board still for five seconds you may be able to actually hit something.
Camouflage - When you live in a massive tree, being tree-coloured has its advantages.
Poisoned Shot - Your blaster must first be loaded with poisonous purple sap.

A Day in the Life of a Scout
"This morning, I was out of bed and on my board before my alarm even went off. People need my help all over the forest, and that's no problem for me. With my board, I can make it from Gorse to the Bracket before those little 'shrooms can gasp in amazement. And my gun... well let's just say you don't want to be on the business end of it.

A pack of gorselings didn't get the message and tried to attack me. Emphasis on 'tried'. I let 'em have it with some new seed rounds I picked up at the shop, and boy, did they get mad! One of 'em tried to take a swipe at me, but I had already put some distance between us.

But retreat wasn't an option today, so I turned around, reloaded by blaster with a special (and secret!) anti-gorseling sap concoction and fired a blast right in the middle of the pack. The gorselings were blown clear off the
branch! The grateful farmers offered to make me lunch, which I accepted, but to-go.

A scout's gotta keep on moving, you know?" -
