Traits

False Appearance. If the Capsianent is motionless at the start of combat, it has advantage on its initiative roll. Moreover, if a creature hasn’t observed the Capsianent move or act, that creature must succeed on a DC 18 Intelligence (Investigation) check to discern that the Capsianent is not a normal chili pepper bush.

Actions

Multiattack. The Capsianent makes two Slam attacks with its branches or one Pepper Spray Breath attack.

Slam. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 11 (2d6 + 4) bludgeoning damage.

Pepper Spray Breath (Recharge 4–6). The Capsianent exhales a cloud of burning noxious poison in a 15-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw, taking 14 (4d6) poison damage on a failed save, and are blinded, choking, and at disadvantage for1d6 rounds, or half as much damage on a successful one, and do not suffer the blindness condition.

Description

The Capsianent is a short squat, foul mouthed and fiery tempered treant-like bushy plant creature usually bearing Chili Peppers on their head branches and thick clusters on their beards.

An intelligent vaguely humanoid plant creature, with an angry child-like demeanor when speaking. At fully mature size they stand at around 4-5ft to the top of their head branches in height and weighing in around 170 lbs. They will usually be found in fertile forests and in grasslands and plains standing rooted in place. They can also be found in arid rainfall regions if there is a nearby available source of accessible water.

They can put up a decent fight, but their first instinct is usually to remain still appearing as chili pepper bushes. Although the Capsianent are not very intelligent plants they are capable of speaking the languages of the Treant, Common, Druidic, Elvish and Sylvan. They can uproot themselves and move slowly on two trunk-like legs. Despite their lack of speed or intelligence they’re able to defend themselves quite effectively, in battle, with club like arms and when threatened, they will use a breath weapon that is exactly like a potent Pepper Spray.

It is commonly known that the best chili powder in the world is made from the large red chili peppers hanging from the branches growing from their bodies. It has been determined that it doesn't hurt them to remove the peppers, it's been compared to cutting their hair.

Although they are usually grumpy in nature and not too bright. Sages have reported that those who have encountered them, have on occasion avoided conflicts with them (usually after the initial pepper spray,) when treated with flattery, praise, bribes, or with diplomacy. They may exchange their peppers if the Capsianents are offered high-quality compost, fertilizer, or mulch in trade for their chilies.
