The Wakwak Tree is an enemy in the Castlevania series. It is a horrifying tree that can produce pods of men.
Origins[]
The waqwaq tree is a giant tree in Indo-Persian lore, whose branches or fruits become heads of men, women or monstrous animals (depending on version) screaming "Waq-Waq", which means screams in Persian.
It is a familiar element in all Persian tales and legends, especially in the Shahnameh where Alexander the Great would have conversed with a similar tree, the Indian Tree of the Sun and the Moon, where the latter would have announced his death, far from his country.
It is somewhat similar to the Japanese Jinmenju, another human-like tree.
Description[]
The Wakwak Tree, as expected, is a stationary enemy. It is an old tree whose branches will continuously grow large fruits from which Fleamen are actually born. The fruits take a little time to mature, though, so the player can destroy them during this time to remove the threat they pose. In order to kill the tree itself, all of its three branches must be cut off. Even though due to the time it takes for the fruits to grow, the Wakwak Tree may pose little threat, if left unattended it may produce a huge amount of Fleamen which can potentially overwhelm the player with their numbers, so it's advisable to prioritize in removing it as soon as one is detected.
