The '''ent''', or '''tree-like creature''', is a [[monster class]] that appears in [[EvilHack]], and is represented by the [[hash mark]] glyph, {{white|#}}. Ents and tree-like creatures are designated internally by the macro '''<tt>S_ENT</tt>'''.

The class contains the following monsters:

* {{brightgreen|#}} [[Ent (EvilHack)|ent]]
* {{black|#}} [[tree blight]]
* {{brown|#}} [[elder ent]]
* {{gray|#}} [[petrified ent]]
* {{magenta|#}} [[gulthias tree]]

==Common traits==
The monster class consists of two types of tree-like creatures: the neutral "true ents" and the chaotic "evil trees".

===Generation===
True ents may be created as peaceful towards [[neutral]] [[hero]]es, and are always peaceful towards Druids, [[Ranger]]s and non-[[Infidel]] [[Elf (starting race)|elven]] heroes, while chaotic tree-like creatures are always hostile.

==History==
The ent monster class first appears in version 0.9.0.

 All ents and ent-like beings have very low movement [[speed]]: the stationary gulthias tree is the "fastest" of them at 10 speed, with the next-fastest being tree blights at 8 speed. Ents have [[poison resistance]], [[sleep resistance]] and [[immunity to sickness]], and with the exception of the petrified ent they are [[vulnerable]] to [[Fire (element)|fire]].

 All neutral "true ents" are male and have [[infravision]], and utilize strong 'claw' attacks. [[Druid]]s that reach [[experience level]] 14 can [[wildshape]] themselves into the form of an ent, while those that reach level 20 can take the form of an elder ent. Ents and elder ents that are subjected to [[stoning]] become petrified ents, and casting [[stone to flesh]] on a petrified ent will turn him into a normal ent.
