Traits

While the Audrey III is motionless and/or stalking it looks like an over-large rose, a bush about 10' tall with thorny vines extending from a handful of central stalks.  It gives off an enticingly pleasant aroma.

Actions

Vine - Each Audrey III has 4-6 vines, each twenty feet long (giving it a 20 foot attack range in any direction).  These vines can be used to either strike or constrict opponents.  Strikes are made at +7 to hit and do 2d6+6 damage.  Constriction attacks are made at +5 and do 2d4+4 damage.  They are covered with many large thorns that drip with a poisonous sap.  Upon taking a hit, the target of the strike or constriction must make a DC16 saving throw or be paralyzed until the end of the Audrey III's next turn.

Engulf - If the Audrey III has at least two vines grappling a target of medium or smaller size it will perform an engulf attack.  The engulf bite does 3d12 damage plus the poisonous sap - again a DC16 saving throw, but the victim will be paralyzed for 1-3 rounds, taking 3d12 damage per round and will be considered grappled as it is swallowed into the root section.

Reactions

Their ability to speak common gives them the ability to provide a vicious mockery to those that attack the plant once per round.  Typically this will be a person that either misses an attack badly, or manages to hit and only do a relatively small amount of damage.  The target of the mockery must make a DC16 Wisdom save or take 1d6 psychic damage and suffer disadvantage on their attack against the Audrey III for one round.

Description

An Audrey III is the offspring of Audrey II from the movie "Little Shop of Horrors" - it can understand and speak common.  It has a somewhat more rose-like appearance, and smells strongly of roses.  The vines have smaller blooms on them that cannot get an engulf attack, but if the vine is cut off and then planted back into the ground and fertilized with the blood of sentient beings, it will grow to the size of the larger plant (10 feet tall) within about a month.

Radiant damage heals the creature for 1/2 the damage done.
