forest guardian
Keeper of trees
A forest guardian is a mythological or fictional being who protects a woodland and its creatures—a spirit, deity, or enchanted creature bound to the land.
The concept appears across cultures and fantasy literature: dryads, ents, nature spirits.
In video games and tabletop RPGs, forest guardians often appear as bosses or allies in woodland settings: The party had to defeat the forest guardian to pass through the ancient grove.
