The tendriculos is a monstrous moving mass of plants and other vegetation, reaching up to 15 feet in height. A tangle of ever-moving vines, weeds, and branches supports its massive body. Located on its topside is the tendriculos' huge mouth that is filled with circular rows of sharp wooden teeth that drip with venom. Two 15-foot long and thick tendrils extend from both sides of its body, covered in leaves and jagged thorns.

Ambush Predator.

The tendriculos is a voracious carnivore that stalks temperate bogs, forests, jungles, and swamps. It lurks in areas of heavy vegetation, pretending to be a mound of foliage, and waits for unsuspecting prey to pass near it.

Venomous Hunter.

When engaged in combat, the tendriculos uses its massive tendrils to grab targets. Those captured are drawn into its maw to be bitten and injected with paralyzing venom. Once incapacitated, victims are swallowed and deposited into the tendriculos's stomach and digested. If faced with multiple or tough opponents, the tendriculos can spit a large number of its venomous teeth, showering a wide area with them.

Absorbs Vegetation.

The tendriculos is a difficult creature to destroy. Foes discover to their horror that the tendriculos can regrow any damaged portions of its body by absorbing nearby vegetation. Should any of its tendrils be severed, the tendriculos can reattach it or grow one instantly, with the leaves and branches quickly closing the gap and supporting the detached tendril with new vines.
