Leatherleaf (Basic Lore)

Leatherleaf (CR 6)
Neutral - Medium - Plant
Leatherleaf refers to extremely hardy and very dangerous plants that infest the wilds. Leatherleafs thrive anywhere with good access to sunlight, water, and victims. In a pinch, they can do without water, as long as victims are available. Leatherleafs are mobile plants, able to creep about at a surprising pace for a plant. Even worse, they are incredibly magical, able to regenerate themselves from a single seed in moments, and have a bad habit of scattering their tiny, sticky, seeds far and wide around their growing patch. When in their full-grown form, they are extremely hard to damage or destroy and quite deadly. Fortunately, leatherleaf is a fairly distinctive looking plant, with its stiff, leathery leaves, thick sturdy stems and branches, and copious assortment of poisonous thorns. A leatherleaf infestation is best burned out from a distance; their intensely allergenic leaves and deadly raking stems are best avoided at all costs, although their ability to germinate from any nearby seed can make that very difficult.
