Groot

Divine Majesty King Groot the 23rd, Monarch of Planet X, custodian of the branch worlds, ruler of all the shades, flora colossus. Groot is a member of the Flora colossus, a society of sentient trees, discovered by the Kree.

Groot is an extraterrestrial plant monster who initially came to Earth seeking humans to capture and study. However he was seemingly destroyed by termites used by Leslie Evans.

Groot recently returned to space and was selected by the Kree to be a part of Star-Lord’s team in the event known as the Annihilation Conquest. Groot and Star-lord would eventually defeat the menace known as the Phalanx, however in doing so Groot would sacrifice his life. The cosmic crusader Rocket Raccoon took a branch of Groot and planted it in a pot and the allowing the hero to re-grow. While in space Groot’s only words spoken were "I am Groot". (The mature form of Groot's species is robust and heavyweight, which causes the organs of acoustic generation to become stiff and inflexible. It is this hardened nature of Groot's larynx that causes people, who are oblivious to the subtle nuances of his speech, to misinterpret him as merely repeating his name.)
