Groot

Description
I Am... Groot

"Groot from Guardians of the Galaxy by Marvel has joined Wilson.
He can only say 'I Am Groot'. He starts off very weak but will
gradually be one of strongest. He only eats wood-type but he is
able to craft his own food. Being a gentle creature, birds and
rabbits don't run away. He finds extra wood-stuff when chopping
tree, and he sheds random wood-stuff every morning in the summer.
Rain slowly heals his wounds. He comes with a normal axe, a
living log, a flint and his favorite food: the 'wood deluxe'."

---fern/foliage, cut lichen, living log

Lose a little exp when chopping or digging (configurable)

Note on food/eating
Eating log, boards and pinecone will cause sanity loss

Root/Unroot Ability
Hotkey is Z (configurable)
When rooted, Groot is unable to move but heals nearby players' health and sanity
However this may change attacking enemies target to Groot

Careful, Groot will drain hunger 6 times as fast
Press hotkey again to unroot (back to normal)

How to level
Kill creatures
---Killing non-combat creatures won't give you any exp
Eat food
---Very little exp. Groot gains more exp by slaying hostiles

Level Badge
Thanks to Kzisor/Ysovuka, Groot now has better and proper levelling system component
Groot also has pretty little level badge to tell you % to level up and current level

err... I mean... I am groot? I am groot?
I am groot! I am groot. :-)

what's the point of all the spoiler tags in the description? They aren't hiding anything particularly "spoiler-y"?
That issue aside (and considering it's really more of a meta-issue), pretty cool! I might try this one with my friends sometime :-)

Hello, I wondered if you could help me using the experience badge for my own implementation of Kzisors Level Up System, as I can't get it to work. Just add me as a steam friend. :)
