Mad Treant

The Mad Treant (マッドトレント) is a tree-like Unversed debuting in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. It serves as a boss for Ventus while he explores the Dwarf Woodlands.

Worlds Fought

 * Dwarf Woodlands

Design
The Made Treant resembles a large, brown tree. Its trunk splits into three large branches, which, in turn, fork into three more branches, giving it nine branches covered with green leaves. Purple fruit resembling whole apples and blue fruit resembling apple cores hang from its branches. It has four thick roots that it typically keeps out of the ground to use as legs, though it can send them back into the ground. There are three red thorns on each of these roots. The Mad Treant's mouth is a jagged, black opening in the trunk, and it has a vertical split in its trunk between its eyes. Its red eyes are set in a sorrowful expression and the Unversed insignia is emblazoned on it just under its mouth.

The Treant is a common enemy found in many games of the Final Fantasy series. "Mad" may reference the brief moments when it surges and goes berserk with darkness.

Story
After escorting Snow White through the woods, Ventus learns that Terra has visited this world. He then heads back to the woods and encounters this large Unversed, and defeats it in battle

Abilities
The Mad Treant mainly attacks by jumping and creating shockwaves. It also attacks by spinning around while throwing explosive fruit. It also attacks Ventus from below by burrowing its root legs into the ground.

Strategy
The Mad Treant is Ven's first boss, and it isn't a hard opponent. For the most part, it lumbers around the arena sometimes throwing fruit bombs when it spins. It also may jump and pound the ground or use its roots. But overall it is an easy boss. Merely dodge its attacks and show the Unversed no mercy.
