The sporacle is a plant? I always thought it was a beholder-kin.

It could be a fungus related to the gas spore.

Btw, the Pooka should be a fey, not a plant.

i wasn't sure - notice my note above. the name and a few features of the monster seem to suggest a possible plant connection...

phooka, different creature, but you're right that it may be a fey instead of a plant. this doesn't have to be limited to creatures with the Plant type.

Of course it doesn't have to be limited to plant creatures, only to creatures with a plant connection.

Btw, I like the idea of the Sporacle to be related to the gas spore...

 

[BOZ]

i have also been giving serious thought to using the Hellseed...

 

[Shade]

Keep giving that thought the seriousness.

not surprising that razorvine and the vampire rose are getting the votes...
