The '''Treeface''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} that was introduced in {{Dragon Quest II}}.

A wicked parody of the traditional ''Treant'' of Western fantasy, the Treeface is a terrible tyrant of the timberlands that mimics surrounding forest biomes in order to ambush plucky adventurers. Brighter than their bark would imply, they use their own leaves to heal themselves when weakened, and are not above fleeing battle when their necks are on the chopping block.

Treeface appeared as a B-rank {{MFamilies}} of the [[Nature family]] at the beginning of the game, but could not be recruited until the limited ''The Adventure of Dai'' event. It can be unlocked and can be fully awakened by completing the The Dark Forest stage from Furfang Full Assault at any difficulty. It can also take part in [[Maam]]'s Battle Road as a party member.
