It is said that the tree that dropped Kelksiomedes apple sprouted one hundred Ghoran seeds together with the golden Apple of Kelksiomedes during his ascension to godhood.
Each seed would soon grow into a Ghoran filled with a fraction of divine power and each one inherited one or more ideals of the newborn god. One legend in particular, states that one of them carries the seed of the God-Tree inside of him – what will become of this Goran is up to the fates. Some people think, that this Ghoran will once grew into a new God-Tree, others believe that it is the duty of the Ghoran to safekeep that seed until Kelksiomedes is in danger of dying for it bears the ability to restore the powers of the god it once born.
During the ages that followed Kelksiomedes ascension, those hundred Ghoran assumed the role of protectors, guardians, healers, gardeners, guides, mentors and soldiers fighting in his name.
But in a dangerous world filled with monster and of diametral power to the evil gods, only the best survive. Coupled with the fact that they have no means to procreate, their numbers dwindled over the course of the centuries until only a few handful are left today.
Quercus is one of those Ghorans, having lived a thousand lives, reseeding uncounted times and every time he did so, he would lose some of the memories and skills of his previous incarnation – nevertheless, his powers, knowledge and otherworldly charisma steadily increases with every new cycle.
He is a most trusted mentor and spokesperson, from farmers to kings, many people search his advice or send for the Thousandborn to settle disputes (ranging from conflicts between couples to disputes between countries threatening a long peace) with calm and experience-filled words. This is not limited to problems with other humans (or monsters for that matter) but also with wild animals. Especially birds of various kinds quickly grow attached to him and he often uses some flying animal to deliver messages to one of his acquaintances. Many stories tell about Quercus 'winged friend' and indeed he has a habit of keeping some clever bird of prey around most of the time. Currently, he is followed by a Falcon he named 'Scribble' for reasons only he knows.

Having lived hundred lifetimes over, Quercus has seen more war, fighting, betrayal and death than most and thus is not quick with violence – but if it comes to it, he is a horrifying combatant, towering above the battlefield as a massive 4m high tree with a massively thick bark armor and flying, wrenching, highly elastic branches that he uses like claws. Stories tell that he is nearly impossible to lay low and that he can summon help of otherworldly creatures at any time in addition to a wide array of spells from both magic traditions.
Local bards (or Quercus himself if he is in the right mood) tell stories about battles where a big tree stalked the battlefield and drew the enemy fire and their strikes on himself to protect his allies and allowing them to retaliate against his attackers.

One of the many alien aspects of Ghorans is the fact that they can change their appearance drastically – which is the only reason they can casually move and have the approximation of faces and facial expressions. For most other species, this is seariously disturbing, to see a Ghoran change his sex, 'skin color' and face within a few moments of rustling leaves, groaning wood and shifting branches.
Quercus has long since assumed the habit of taking on the same form, whenever others are around to make others more at ease while handling with him, but it happens that he forgets to do so - more often the closer he gets to the end of a cycle.
In his usual appearance, he appears as a roughly humanoid with a deep brown skin (made of ebony bark) with a face full with sharp-edged features created by endless overlapping layers of leaves - which colour vary depending on his mood. During sunny and joyful days the leaves take on a fresh green, which turns yellow-brown during nights or if witnessing sad sights. If they ever turn to the color of crimson red ... one better prepares for war.
Instead of hair, his head ends in a complex bunch of branches that raise up and to the sides akin to a set of antlers made of wood with tiny leaves. Those who know him for longer than one incarnation cycle (so everyone who is older than 40 years) might have noticed that Quercus adds another branch to these 'antlers' for every lived cycle.
