Right. let's start off with going straight in and seeing why they started appearing, if they can be reasoned with.
they are perfectly sentient, but they are similar to vampires. they are inviting, but they will drain all of your magic if you let them.
I leave the tree to begin my quest, carrying only a bow and quiver of normal arrows, heading north to find this mysterious Alchemist.
you find the man outside in the middle of a snowstorm wearing boots, a hat, pants, and little else. he is crushing what looks like beetle shell in his bowl. he looks at you and asks why you would come at such a time as this storm?
Ok, what I do is I make a small devilfire ball, and fuel it up a bit. Then, I make it elongate into something closely resembling a sword blade. Then, I use my sword fragments and fuse them with the power of my elemental sage fire to the devilfire "sword blade". After that, I use what remaining shards I have left to make a hilt with no fire under it. then, I summon 3 fire minions, 2 in my likeness, and one in the form of a large dragon with a barbed tail. Then, me and my minions go on a rampage towards the tree, swinging at it, blowing devilfire at it, and the dragon bashing it with its barbed tail while wrapping around it and squeezing it. After I get a bit exhausted, I make the minions disappear. Then I try to draw some power from the sun, then blow the most powerful blast of devilfire I can muster, while sucking a small amount of energy from the tree and everything non-player on and in the earth.
the damage is big.

Thaboss uses his sword to create a massive vortex of crackling lightning, drawing energy from his surroundings (but not other players) if needed. This isn't ordinary lightning though. Thaboss has specially built it specifically to be accepted by the chlorophyll of the tree and to act like regular light. The lightning is infused with dark energy of a malicious sort. This lightning will go through the light reactions of the tree's photosynthesis. [any questions on photosynthesis, just ask. Thaboss will explain.] The excessive amount of light causes the tree to undergo photoinhibition, which damages the tree by causing excess electrons (that the electron transport chain cannot handle) to be passed to oxygen, which is then turned into OH- or H2O2, (hydroxide or hydrogen peroxide) which damages the tree's cells. Keep in mind that this isn't ordinary light, it's dark and malicious, and causes these electrons and end products (OH-/H2O2) to be much, much more destructive than would normally be. They wreak havoc on the tree from the inside, using the tree's own systems against it. The whole process of the light reactions is poisoned, causing the ATP and NADPH produced to also be poisoned. When these go on to the light-independent reactions (or dark reactions/Calvin cycle). Instead of powering the Calvin cycle to produce sugars, these poisoned energy molecules instead expend their energy in a burst of heat, also damaging the plant. Since the Calvin cycle is no longer working, the tree doesn't have any sugars to use to repair the damage being done.
jacking the tree's natural processes in order to make itself its own worst enemy. I'm impressed. the tree eventually adapts itself, but not after the damage has been done.

Killersup will use this demon to engulf the Carbon cells inside of the tree with unholy super flames. The injection that Killersup puts in the tree will be right where the tree is at it's weakest, where the devilfire had just hit it. The complete lack of Carbon cells in the tree will cause all of the Hydrogen cells to completely take over the tree's membrane. Then Killersup will call upon the undead forest giant to rise from the ground and carry Killersup to the top of the tree. Upon reaching the top Killersup jumps from the undead giant and smashes his super-diamond earthquake hammer on the tree, condensing it. This compression of hydrogen atoms creates a super flammable carbon-dioxide-less super flame. To get away from said super flame, Killersup will simply freeze time and take anyone else in danger with him. Then unfreeze time and watch the fireworks go off.
very nice work.

Hmmm. didn't participate before, but I will do this now that i've got the time for an extreme post.
"This tree is STILL going? Very well." Epic, the King of Games, approaches the tree. "Sonic, i'm a bit dissapointed, I thought you would've one-shotted it. Oh well...time for a limit break!" Epic summons his weapons as he activates the limit break: Hydranite, a naturally-formed emerald sword imbibed with deadly poisons and a Gorgon Eye stuck in the handle, and Lionheart, a legendary Gunblade-type weapon channeling the spirit of a lion. "SKY JUMP!" He begins, a blast of pressurized air directly beneath him sending him to the top of the tree. "WHIRLWIND RAZOR!" He continues the limit break by swinging out his swords and spinning in a circle, attempting to cleave the tree in twain one section at a time. "DARK SHOCK!" Almost at the end, Epic withdraws his swords at a height of 50 feet and throws a blast of energy at the trunk. This energy corrupts and weakens all that it touches. "Finally...SOUL FORCE!" The limit break ends with Epic phasing into pure energy and charging through the tree, cleaving and burning all he can with his still-physical weapons.
He lands, stumbling, on the other side of the tree, and turns to see how much damage he did.
though this is a detailed attack, I can tell that very little of this was original (I also count points for that)

shoot a meteorite which is 1000 times hotter than the tree and get all the planets and asteroids to target at earth. Then I summon all the superheroes from Marvel and DC comics to attack the trees, once they are all tired I turn them into atomic bombs and will blow up the tree, Then I will summon all the villains of movies and comics to attack the tree. I then build a large aquarium around it, fill it with water and summon lightning to hit the water thus electrocuting the tree. Then I stop the lightning and demolish the aquarium, then I will summon all dinosaurs from before to attack the tree and then summon the meteorite that killed the dinosaurs and send it at the tree. I will summon a giant with an indestructible chainsaw made out of a super secret material design for just this, then he will saw the tree.
for the mentioning of DC/ Marvel characters, I will be lowering the damage factor.

use magic to remove the cell wall from each cell in the tree, causing the tree to simply deflate like a punctured balloon with the fact that it has no cell walls. If it does not deflate then I remove the vacuoles as well, removing any surface tension from the cell. Then I create a magical bombardment on the tree, smashing into the limp tree.
simple yet elegant. I'm pleased with the attempt.

okay I have looked it over, and the winner is Thaboss. because he won, he will be upgraded to Demi-god, and I will give him one bonus perk of his choice (within reason of course). tell me what you would like on my profile and I will see what I can do.
