Also here is my character. I felt too much focus was being put on my last idea's origin.

Name: N’jui (n-vai), Whispering Willow
Titles: N’jui’ghuuli (n-vai-zhu-lee), All that is One, Memoir of Blood, Speaker of the Wilds
Age: Eight hundred three million nine hundred forty seven thousand eight hundred seventy six revolutions around the Great Light.
World: On the world of N’juivus (N-vai-us) much of the flora and fauna possess magical attributes and ability to respond and react. While they are not intelligent like that of the humans or elves that live on the world, many of the world’s civilizations are built around a balance of respecting areas sacred to the wilderness and also clearing it for their food and cities. Wars between races do take place, and the wilderness usually has unique characteristics in the aftermath of such battles.
Race: Whispering Willows are a series of strange, and long lived trees that resemble willows with long vine like branches that droop around the trunk. These trees are also fairly large and have sturdy bases with wide reaching roots. The trees only flower when it senses bloodshed even at surprising distances. The trees are often found in the center of such areas where copious amounts of life was lost. They seemingly sprout overnight in these locations fully grown shortly after the blood shed ends. They usually appear without evidence of having ever been a sapling. Also as a result, these plants can grow practically anywhere. When a tree flowers, its branches and vines are covered in traditional looking flowers, deep red in color with a very faint glow. What makes whispering willows more mysterious is they can communicate. Magical mediums are able to speak with the tree, and the tree can respond as though it had the memories of those who had perished where it grows. Beyond this, the trees don’t have much will of their own to ask questions.
Form: Looks pretty much like a willow tree. What distinguishes a whispering willow from their normal counterpart is how it flowers, where they end up growing, and how they come to be.
The physical illusion it casts as an extension of its being for exploration and experience can be of any creature the tree has interacted with before. Having been connected to the entire world’s ecosystem, that is every living thing from N’juivus up until its ascension, extinct and evolved. These animals are fantastical versions of animals those of Earth are familiar with for the sake of convenience. And maybe some fantasy creatures.
Legend: No one lives who could speak of how much devastation took the world during a historically brutal war nearly a billion years ago. As one of the few topics N’jui doesn’t share all the details, what is known about the battles between the humans and the elves of the time has been unearthed through archaeology. The war was bloody. The elves had methods in which they could entice the wilderness to grow and fight among them, while the humans and their science and machines found methods to disrupt that harmony. Motive has yet to be discovered, but whatever the reason, it was enough for both sides to send any and all they could to win the war. So much magical energy had been used and so many troops and civilians had lost their lives that even before modern scholars started digging, evidence of the conflict surrounded the willow several millennia after it had ended.
Years passed since it had first arrived. Ages rose and fell. Entire countries were founded and conquered around that tree. Monuments, prisons, keeps, and the like were built around it and eventually fell to ruin. While whispering willows began to sprout around the world since the discovery of N’jui, none had the ability to communicate, learn, or teach. For every bit of knowledge the tree was willing to part with, it had gathered that much more from those who were eventually laid to rest. The tree stood strong with nothing but time and the inexplicable reason to recall any information that has existed on the world since the time of its creation. A beacon for the spiritual leaders, the political adversaries, and the seekers of truth, it stands in the center of the world not owned by any one party.
Will: The tree is usually content just observing the world as it ages, changes, and repeats. It continues to learn and seeks new knowledge regardless of how trivial it may be. Entirely impartial it will share most of what it knows to anyone who asks. It will defend itself with the full length of its ability when threatened.
Mastery: It can tap upon the knowledge of every being whose life had come to an end upon the world. At the same time it absorbs the lingering magical energies if any should exist. It has a tremendous amount of magical energy stored within its being. Having gathered all the knowledge of everything that has once lived on the world, it has the skill set, magical ability, and aptitude to practically any skill and level. That includes magical spells it can cast at will and martial skills if using a physical apparition.
Ascent: As decades passed, civilizations rose and fell. In the short time the tree spent on the world through out its existence, this form of bark and plant matter had become aware of the history and cultures of the world more than the world itself. It had followed the flow of magic from one vessel to another and then eventually into itself.
This world. It is not unique. There are others.
N’jui might have had the collective knowledge of its world, but from what lay beyond had never been discovered. The live of those who had lived with N’jui were too short. The inhabitants of the world had never questioned what lay beyond. Anything they wished to know or recover came from magic, mediums, or the whispering willows. It left N’jui to dig its roots past the soil and water of its world and seek out the secrets the world had kept from itself and its place among the stars.
Ephemera: The tree does not need physical tools since it is able to shape the world around itself to create what it needs.
Whatever followers it has are known as the N’juitsalyi (n-vai-shal-eye), beings who had dedicated themselves in provide the tree the knowledge of the world before their discoveries reached the grave. There are four in particular that the people repeat throughout their histories. A scholar elf of great magic potential, Kellion. A human smith of the lost arts, Joc (Joush). A goblinesque shaman and wilderness shaper, Bnun (be-un). A wolf pack leader of the wilderness, Grand Fang. These four figures were thought to be what remained since the collapse of the last temple to be built around the N'jui several millennia before its ascension. They were granted a form of immortality from the magical reservoir from the tree itself. Since then, these four have actively stopped anyone from building their countries, cities, or whatever else monuments around the tree, while at the same time allowing any and all who wish to speak with the tree to do so. Their existence has been confirmed by N’jui to those who ask despite never or rarely ever being seen in any one lifetime.
