Viper Vines

Viper Vines are a form of semi-sentient carnivorous plants that live deep inside the oldest forests of Calradia. Viper Vines are rarely found near major population centres, as they have been eventually hunted into obscurity. However, many explorers who delve deep and far away from the cities, report still that viper vines grow.    The origin of the plants are unknown, and viper vines have appeared across many different biomes and land masses, leaving scholars perplexed as to where they come from, or how they are able to adapt so skillfully.    Viper Vines have a unique ability to move themselves. They can pull up their own roots for a limited time to slither across forest floors to a new hunting location. However, they cannot live uprooted for long, and so often move very slowly. When exposed to Prey the vines will sprout multiple heads of poisonous teeth to attempt to consume any unfortunate enough to be nearby.    The Poison of a Viper Vine is highly sought after, as it can be distilled into antivenom of an unparalleled strength as well as a powerful poison in itself. Apothecaries across the continent will pay dearly for a bottle of this unique medicine.
