I noticed something weird about oaklings, they possess the power to stand up quickly after being knocked down. Really? Aren't trees the last thing you'd expect to stand back up after being knocked down?

Perhaps they were thinking about saplings? You can get those to snap right back up after being pulled down (albeit, not chopped down, but still).

Maybe they were using Wizards-style playtesting:

Dev1: Tree's never fall down
Dev2: Players need to be able to fall down
Dev1: How bout they stand up real quick?
Dev2: Okey dokey.


On a side note, anyone else notice how Oaklings (and their related feats) practically scream "MAKE ME A MONK!"?
