* The ''Franchise/DragonAge'' lore features this as the origin of [[PlantPerson Sylvans]], though it could be seen as more of an InvertedTrope; when spirits and/or demons cross over from the Fade, they typically seek out something ([[DemonicPossesion or someone]]) to posses, as their Fade forms are vulnerable and somewhat uncomfortable in the more grounded mortal realm. Unfortunately, if a spirit/demon exits the Fade in, say, an isolated forest, their options are limited, and indeed, many choose to posses trees themselves. This results in them getting trapped in said tree, which becomes their bodies, and they end up immobile until someone either releases them, or they manage to gain enough control over their bodies to begin moving around. Sadly, most sylvans you meet are driven insane, either from the trauma of crossing from the Fade or from being [[AndIMustScream trapped in a tree for gods know how long]], but you do meet one with a penchant for rhymes who refers to himself as a "[[JustForPun Poet-tree]]."
