Standing a massive 156mm tall, this gnarled sentinel features deeply furrowed bark and skeletal, finger-like branches reaching for the sky. Whether used as a terrifying Awakened Tree monster or a haunting centerpiece for a cursed forest, its twisted trunk and sprawling roots bring a grimdark aesthetic to your tabletop.
A dead, twisted tree stands alone in a desolate landscape, its skeletal branches reaching for the sky.
