This unsettling carnivorous plant miniature features a jagged, tooth-filled maw at its base and a body covered in strange, pockmarked craters. Its unique organic texture and menacing silhouette make it an ideal environmental hazard for fantasy jungles or alien landscapes in sci-fi campaigns.
A predatory plant waits patiently in a stationary position for prey to wander within reach of its base mouth.
A low-level jungle or swamp hazard that ambushes players who step too close to the undergrowth.
