Challenge 4 (1,100 XP)

Bountiful Death. When the tripwire patch reduces a creature to 0 hp nearby plants erupt with growth. Plants within 20' of the body become thick overgrown difficult terrain and all plants within a 2-mile radius centered on the point where the creature was killed become enriched for 7 days for each CR of the slain creature (minimum of 7 days) cumulatively increasing in duration each time the patch kills a creature. Enriched plants yield twice the normal amount of food when harvested.

False Appearance. While motionless indistinguishable from normal patch of foliage such as flowers or bushes.

Actions

Multiattack. Two Bite attacks or one Bite attack and two Tripwire Vine attacks.
