Able to teleport to any location on the map at will.
Planted as a seed by the goddess Verodicia, and grown from the remnants of her own body, the Nature's Prophet rose on the vernal equinox to defend the verdant world. Gifted with foresight, Nature's Prophet seems to be everywhere at a moment's notice. Trapping foes with a ring of trees Sprouted from the forest floor and Teleporting at will to any location. The trees around him serve as his objects of power; using them, he instantly summons a Sentient Army of violent trees to fight for him, he attacks where enemies least expect. Channeling the goddess' fury, the Prophet strikes at every intruder in the land, bringing both the Curse of the Oldgrowth and the Wrath of Nature down on all who would do harm to Verodicia's creation.

Bio

I woke within the seed and saw my destiny, and many were its branches.

Alias:

NP

Lore:

When Verodicia, Goddess of the Woods, had finished filling in the green places, having planted the coiled-up spirit in the seed, having lured the twining waters from deep within the rock, having sworn the sun its full attention to the growing things, she realized that her own time had reached its end, and like one of the leaves whose fate she had imprinted in the seed, she would fall without seeing the fruiting of her dream. It pained her to leave the world bereft, for the sprouts had not yet broken through the soil--and they would be tender and vulnerable to every sort of harm. She found in her seed pouch one last seed that she had missed in the sowing. She spoke a single word into the seed and swallowed it as she fell. Her vast body decomposed throughout the long winter, becoming the humus that would feed the seedlings in the spring. And on the morning of the vernal equinox, before the rest of the forest had begun to wake, that last seed ripened and burst in an instant. From it stepped Nature's Prophet, in full leaf, strong and wise, possessing Verodicia's power to foresee where he would be needed most in defense of the green places--and any who might be fortunate enough to call him an ally.

Trivia

• Nature's Call was called "Force of Nature" in DotA.

• In DotA, Nature's Prophet's name was Furion, a reference to Malfurion Stormrage from the Warcraft universe. His Dota 2 name had to be changed in order to avoid copyright issues with "Blizzard Entertainment". He is still called Furion by the majority of the player base and is referred to as "Furion" in the game files.

• Nature's Prophet was originally named "Tequoia" in Dota 2, but this was changed for unspecified reasons.

• "Nature's Profit" is a popular nickname for Nature's Prophet, due to his farming and split-pushing playstyle.

• Nature's Prophet's early lore concept made him the father of Anti-Mage and Terrorblade (similar to how he was in DotA), but this idea was later scrapped.

• Nature's Prophet's spawning response, <ab>vo_furion_furi_spawn_01.mp3</ab> "I speak for the trees." is a direct reference and homage to Dr. Seuss' The Lorax.

• One of Nature's Prophet's last hitting responses, <ab>vo_furion_furi_lasthit_07.mp3</ab> "Green is good.", is a reference to "greed is good", a quote from the 1987 film Street, as well as the Warcraft III cheat code of the same name.

• One of Nature's Prophet's Illusion Rune responses, "Leaves of three, let them be", is a traditional rhyme for identifying and avoiding Poison Ivy.
