Treebeard

Voiced by: John Rhys-Davies

Appears in:
The Two Towers
The Return of the King

In The Two Towers:
After Merry and Pippin escape from the Uruk-hai patrol, they flee into Fangorn Forest with one Orc after them. They climb a tree to hide from him and find that the tree is Treebeard. He stomps on the orc. Merry realizes that he must be an Ent, a tree-herder, like those that were told of living in the Old Forest near The Shire.

Merry and Pippin tell Treebeard of the war that is beginning and that their friends need help. They fall asleep while he is walking and he leaves them in his home Wellinghall. He has to rescue them from a Waking Tree that has begun to push them down under its roots.

Treebeard then calls an Entmoot, a meeting of Ents, at Derndingle where they debate what to do. After quite a long meeting, Treebeard informs Merry and Pippin that the Ents have decided to do nothing. Merry is angry, but Pippin just asks Treebeard to take them south close to Isengard. Neither Merry nor Treebeard understand why Pippin would ask Treebeard to take them there.

When they arrive at the edge of Fangorn Forest, Treebeard gets angry at Saruman because the edge of the forest has been cut down. He calls the Ents to action and they attack Isengard. The Ents destroy the dam blocking the river, flooding the forges and destroying all of Saruman's war machines.

In The Return of the King:
Treebeard is guarding Isengard and has Saruman and Gríma Wormtongue trapped in the Tower of Orthanc.
