Description

This seemingly ordinary, long garden vine lies in wait for any creature to come within striking distance. Then it lashes out with long, prickled tendrils. It will also occasionally pick up rocks or other similar items and use them to attack. It does so to create a nutrient rich soil around it. A well fed vine will not attack first.

In the winter the vine will die off, leaving ripened fruit to be picked or eaten, allowing for seeds to be deposited elsewhere. In the spring the vine grows anew like a perennial.
