Spriggan (Oblivion)

Spriggans, often called "Nature's Guardians", are creatures in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. They are tree spirits found in Tamriel, usually underground or in dense forests. They are able to Summon Black Bears to assist them in combat and to fully heal themselves three times per day when badly hurt.

Behavior
The Cyrodilic Spriggans are unable to resurrect themselves, unlike their Solstheim counterparts, who can revive themselves twice, growing stronger each time. These Spriggans are easier to detect, due to their shrill laughter. Their beauty and lethality, as well as their nature associations is reminiscent of Sirens, or of poisonous plants or reptiles that use color and appearance to warn potential attackers to stay away.
