Vulnerable Vine. The Coiling Rose has a single vine longer than the rest to use for it's Grasping Vine attack, giving it a range of 60 ft normally. However, if this vine were to be cut, the Rose would take all attacking damage (up to 10), plus an additional 1d10 damage and its Grasping Vine range is reduced to 30 ft.
Multiattack. The Coiling Rose can make three attacks per turn: 2 Thorn Whip attacks, and 1 Grasping Vine or Grasping Roots attack.
Thorn Whip. +4 to hit, range 20 ft., 1d6+2 piercing damage. After a hit, target must make DC 12 Con saving throw. On a fail, they take an additional 1d4 damage and the Coiling Rose heals for that amount as they drain the target of some blood. Any creature without blood is immune to the second effect.
Grasping Vine. Range 60 ft. Target must make a Dex save DC 12 to dodge or be grappled. The Coiling Rose can then use a bonus action to pull a grappled creature 10 ft. towards it once per turn. Only one creature can be grappled in this way at a time. Grappled creature can use an action to roll a Str save DC 14 at the start of their turn to escape. For the purpose of attacking the vine, it has an AC 10 and takes 10 points of damage to cut. See Vulnerable Vine trait.
Grasping Roots. Range 20 ft. Target must make a Str or Dex save 15 to dodge or escape from a swarm of twisting roots which erupt from the ground. On a fail, their speed is reduced to 0. The Rose has advantage on Thorn Whip attacks against a creature grappled in this way. Target can use an action to reroll a Str save on their turn. For the purpose of attacking the roots, they have an AC 12 and 8 HP. Attacking the roots does not harm the Rose.
Grasping Vine. If a creature is already grappled, the Rose can pull them in up to 10 ft.
Wriggling Form. After taking damage from a melee attack from 5 ft. away, the Rose can wriggle its body, attempting to knock any creatures next to it prone. All creatures within 5 ft. must make a Dex save DC 9 or be knocked prone.
Thorn Whip. The Rose can take 1 Thorn Whip attack as a reaction.
Description
A writhing ball of large, thorny green vines surrounds a large flower bulb which appears almost like a rose. When disturbed, the bulb opens to reveal a golden eye at the center. This plant creature is aggressive when awake, using its large vine to hunt and draw creatures towards it, where it uses its blood and decaying body for nourishment.
