I've had treants on the mind lately (been rereading The Two Towers), and have been thinking I need to build/include some sort of encounter involving tree-folk.
I don't see why there couldn't be treants anywhere there are trees. Pine trees, mangroves, oak, acacia, baobab, any kind. Variety is the spice of leaf . . . err, life.

Since swamps are wetlands “dominated by trees” (as opposed to marshes, which are wetlands dominated by grasses), why not?
I wonder how they feel about shambling mounds? Are the friends? Pets? Food? Do they create them through alchemy or some weird tree-man ritual? We may never know…
Tardigrade, for the record, I know. There's a druid sage study called "Trees": https://tao-dndwiki.blogspot.com/2018/03/trees-sage-study.html. I haven't finished designing it yet.
