Treant

Treants represent a wide variety of awakened trees.

Basic Information

Anatomy

Treants typically had face-like features on their bark, a division between their trunk that formed legs, and long branches that served as arms. Their wood appeared to be solid like stone, but it was actually filled with tubes that carried water from its roots to the areas where it was needed. Diseases such as tube wilt could affect these tubes and therefore the health of the treant.

Growth Rate & Stages

Treants age at the same rate as the trees they represent. In their adolescence treants were often more energetic, rebellious, and reckless. But as they aged treants preferred to while away their days in quiet contemplation, rooted in place as though they were a normal tree.

Behaviour

Treants are slow to act, preferring to slowly consider courses of action before acting. This can be maddening to most other humanoid species that are quicker to act. Their speech patterns are slow as well, symbolizing their slow approach to life.

Civilization and Culture

History
