Siphoning Barbs. The spines on the Vampire Bulbs thorns are modified with small tubes that siphon blood from creatures, storing blood and healing itself. At the start of the start of their turn, creatures grappled by the Vampire Bulb must succeed a (Con15) saving throw or suffer (2d10+6) piercing damage as blood is siphoned from them. The Vampire Bulb heals for all of the damage dealt.

Blood Transcendence. Whenever the Vampire Bulb kills a creature with Siphoning Barbs it gains 1 point of Stored Blood. Small: (3 points), medium: (5 points), large: (20 points), huge: (50 points), whenever a Vampire Bulb obtains 100 points of stored blood it spins while burrowing into the earth then popping out just as fast as a Blood Lily.

Description

Vampire Bulbs are thought to be products of vampire experimentation, however they're just prehistoric flower bulbs that grows through the means of siphoning blood from creatures for nutrients. Vampire Bulbs grow above ground and have the appearance of large round bulbs with a tuft of long lance-like spined thorns that stick out from the top of it. Vampire Bulbs come in 3 different varieties of colors, black and red zig zagging lines, black and yellow zig zagging lines, and black and violet zig zagging lines. Not inherently evil, they attack any living creature with blood it senses from beneath the earth and smells confirming it has blood. Vampire Bulbs can really pop up in any environment besides cold artic regions, so long as they have a supply of blood. But once these ravenous bulbs siphon enough blood, they'll transcend into massive majestic Blood Lilys that tower over forest canopies feasting on the radiance of the sunlight rather than blood.
