Treant is a popular character type/race found in newer-strategy/RPG computer games.
Treants are supposed to be an un-copyrighted version of J.R.R Tolkien's Ents, and are thus sentient trees with human characteristics.
Ents appear to have been inspired by the talking trees of many of the world's folklores. See tree (mythology) for more information.
The name comes from combining Tree and Giant, and should be pronounced as a mixture of the two (app. Tree-yant).
