Stump chumps are the animated husks of felled trees with a face on the front, walking about on its roots and using what remains of their branches as limbs. They are the first monster in the series capable of using medicinal herbs during battle, both to heal itself and fellow monsters. Typically it appears during the earliest parts of an adventure. Its relationship with treefaces (if any) is unknown. Starting with the Monsters: Joker subseries, they became part of the Undead family, as the obake (おばけ,obake?) in their Japanese name is a type of supernatural being in Japanese folklore.
The tragic remains of chopped-down trees whose deep-seated malice has made them morph into monsters. They attack travellers who try to sit on them, sucking out all their nutrients before discarding the husk.
Stump chump is an E-rank monster of the Nature family. It can be recruited from Episodes 5 and 8 of Chapter 5 and it stars in its own Battle Road. It can also participate in the Patissier knight and King kelp's Battle Road as a party member, as well.
