Treant (Tactics)

A tree endowed with consciousness by sprites residing within. Its leaves seem to harbor a mysterious energy.

Description

Treants species are a group of tree-like entities from Final Fantasy Tactics. They are creatures of nature, and so absorb Earth-elemental attacks and are weak to Fire. They are relatively delicate enemies whose abilities focus on healing and support. Their evade score is nonexistent and attacks on them will have a 100% chance of landing a hit.

Etymology

[view · edit · purge]A dryad is a tree nymph, that is a female spirit of a tree, in Greek mythology. In Greek drys signifies "oak". Thus, dryads are specifically the nymphs of oak trees, though the term has come to be used for all tree nymphs in general.
