Glide
When falling at least 10 feet, Glinda can spend a reaction to fly up to her speed in one direction as she descends. Glinda lands in an unoccupied space at the end of her movement, and takes no falling damage. Glinda cannot glide while carrying heavy objects, heavy weapons, or shields (though she can drop any held items as part of her reaction).
Wing Flap
As a bonus action, Glinda can use her powerful feathered arms to propel herself upward up to half her movement speed. Glinda can use it in conjunction with a regular jump, but not while gliding.
Seedspeech
Glinda can communicate simple ideas to living plants, and is able to interpret their responses in simple language.

Other data
description
This huden gallus' plumage resembles a ptarmigan, and she usually wears a pince-nez on her beak. A professor of advanced theoretical necromancy, Glinda is known for having strange opinions about her field of study. Unlike most birdfolk, she sees necromancy as a manipulation of life energies on par with druidic magic. She is a kind soul, and only practices the lighter forms of necromancy. However, she has been performing secret experiments on the servitor skeletons in the Avium, hoping to develop a cutting-edge resurrection spell. This violates campus policies, which ban practical necromancy, and could cause her to lose her job. Glinda uses the gallus necromancer stat block. Her alignment is chaotic good.
