[QUOTE="Shade, post: 5228713, member: 287"] [B]Frost Treants[/B] The trees are frost treants, an evil variety of treant.

Originally appeared in Polyhedron #116 (1996). These aren't very exciting as written. Perhaps we can take the "frost" aspect a bit further than simply making them evil. Maybe they are cold-weather trees, such as pine trees, and have some cold-based abilities? [/QUOTE]
