From out of the bushes springs a small form, its body a tangle of twigs, branches, and small bits of wood. Two arms jut from its stunted, wooden body, each one ending in a three-fingered claw. A pair of red eyes glow from within its airy frame.
Out from the twiggy frame juts brass pipes and metal segments. Tubes filled with a red liquid run along the creatures arms down to the claws that gleam of polished steel.

A human-sized figure approaches you, its body a composite of twigs, branches, and other bits of wooden refuse. Long, barbed thorns cover its entire body, each one dripping some sort of vile-looking sap. Its two arms end in long, clawed hands. Red, menacing eyes glow from deep within its wooden body.
