Final Fantasy Explorers[]

FFE Dryad

Dryad (ドリュアス, Doryuasu?) is an Earth-elemental Eidolon. She can be recruited in Fosta Gardens by capturing her with a Crystal Surge. Her attack is an Earth attack called Upheaval, which causes the ground to break apart and quickly rise and fall in the general area.

Etymology[]

A dryad is a tree nymph, that is a female spirit of a tree, in Greek mythology. In Greek drys signifies "oak". Thus, dryads are specifically the nymphs of oak trees, though the term has come to be used for all tree nymphs in general. The Japanese name for its Explorers appearance is based on the Latin Dryas.
