The secret of greenwood lies in its harvesting. Each length is taken, with leaves still attached, from a tree animated by a treant and cut with care to avoid the death of the tree. A dryad then speaks to and shapes the wood, coaxing the living green of the leaves into the grain of the wood itself. The resulting wood remains alive as long as it is doused with at least one gallon of water (plus 1 gallon for every 10 pounds of the item's weight) once per week and allowed to rest for an hour in contact with fertile soil. Any wooden or mostly wooden item (such as a bow or spear) made from greenwood is considered a masterwork item. Items not normally made of wood or only partially of wood (such as a battleaxe or a mace) either cannot be made from greenwood or do not gain any special benefit from being made of greenwood.

When damp and in contact with fertile soil, living greenwood heals damage to itself at a rate of 1 hit point per hour, even repairing breaks and regrowing missing pieces. If the weapon has the broken condition, it is repaired during the first hour of contact with fertile soil. Greenwood items take only one-quarter damage from fire.

Greenwood can be altered or enhanced with wood-shaping magic such as ironwood, shape wood, and warp wood. The duration of any such effect on a greenwood item is doubled.

Can a greenwood magic item repair itself (and the magic)?


Yes, absolutely. Not the magic, though.

Repair damage: Yes, says so right in the description.

Repair magic? You mean like regain charges? No, sorry, does not work like that (too bad, infinite wand of X would be cool)

If you mean an item that is supressed (via Dispel Magic or Anti-Magic etc) then no? the supression should wear off naturally, long before the item would "heal" via this power.

No I meant if I have a +1 Flaming Club that gets broken.


In my infinite wisdom, I say: NO.
