Because you are still so short on posts, chummer. If you REALLY cared, you would be derailing this thread as we type. ;)

Tolkien's Ents?

plant cells, they are animate, sentient trees.
Ofcourse, those plant cells might be rather divergent from what you'dsee in most other plants, but then again...

Yes, and that might be kind of hard to get.

Sorry, chummer, but you are wrong. Ents are creatures, not plants. Treebeard even makes a point of saying that he is not a tree. The initial description of the ents in The Two Towers would seem to bear this out. The movies made them into walking trees.

the apearance i got was that they are treants and if they respond same as in ad&d they respond well to plant growth it acts as a super healing spell so i would say they are plant in nature also consider the fact that they burned extremly well

How can you possibly suffer from Lord of the Rings books?

CHummer, those books sucked. Good story, bad writing. Tolkien was an english professor, and it shows.

Actually I think he was a linguistics prof which means he knew nothing of writing.  But Jester's right, we've beaten this dead horse before.
