Malevolent Tree Kin are a 
Wood Elves monstrous infantry unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer II with The Twisted and Twilight Update, available only to the 
Wargrove of Woe.
Recruitment[ | ]
Unlocked with: Tribal Stones, Overgrown Temple of Ereth Khial or Overgrown Temple of Isha
Description[ | ]
At the heart of every Tree Kin resides the soul of a dead Elf, though this is not the fate of all. Only the strongest and most driven souls retain enough individuality to become such creatures. Most, eager to renounce the identity and struggles that shaped their mortal lives, pass into the Weave of the forest. Though their family and friends might occasionally fancy that they can hear their loved one's voice upon the wind, it is but an echo of a life long abandoned. However, those souls that become Tree Kin are unable to completely abandon their grip on their former lives, and they forge themselves a new body out of dead timber so that they might continue to defend in death that which they loved in life.
