Shivervine
Shivervines have a central plant that looks like a crystalline, frozen daisy with two large vines extending from the base. These vines grip the walls and ceilings of frozen caves and are often mistaken for dangling icicles because of the crystalline spikes that protrude from them.
From their rocky perches, shivervines ambush prey by detaching from the walls to impale and constrict. Wounds from its spikes are often severe, but even more deadly is the shivervine’s ability to quickly drain a foe’s blood. Those that manage to escape a shivervine’s grasp often fall victim to crystal petals fired from the daisy.
Basic Information
Dietary Needs and Habits
Having adapted to survive in frigid environments without loamy soil, shivervines absorb the blood of their prey for sustenance.
Additional Information
Uses, Products & Exploitation
Many Frost Giant tribes cultivate shivervines to deter unwanted visitors, but these odd plants have other practical applications. Shivervines’ ability to drain blood is also often utilized to drain meat for storage, assuming the plants are frequently supplied with new meat to curb their appetites.
