Monster Trove for Early Adventurers
Nether Vine Mauler
Medium
About
Twisted plant-creatures that crawl from cracks where light never reaches. Their bodies are a tangle of dark vines covered in hard thorns that draw blood with every strike. They fight low and close, digging into the ground to brace against attacks. Even when cut down, their splinters cling to boots and armor, spreading tiny roots overnight.
