Treant

A moving, sentient tree with the face of a monster. These monsters have acquired a variety of skills that allow them to survive in even the most inhospitable of environments. Most notably their roots are powerful and efficient, able to crush stone with little work. They allow treants to seek and absorb nutrients from deep beneath even a seemingly wasted landscape. They also serve as handy weapons in battle. Treants which have absorbed the blood of their foes through their roots take on a slightly reddish hue.
